Alwaysinourshadows Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 It is an odd decision for Hearts to make to ask Ticketmaster to remove the section counters (Ticketmaster wouldn't do it on their own). The information is still there but counting the available seats is a pain. The Board claims that they are transparent, but I don't see the value to the club in making the information on ticket sales less visible. I think that the JKB countdowns do encourage a few more people to buy tickets rather than the opposite. How do you know ticket master wouldn't change it? I was looking at buying tickets for a spurs and Newcastle game and they wouldn't show the number of seats left just "limited availability" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballfirst Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 How do you know ticket master wouldn't change it? I was looking at buying tickets for a spurs and Newcastle game and they wouldn't show the number of seats left just "limited availability" I'm sure that Ticketmaster change the display to meet their individual clients requirements. e.g. counters, limited availability or best available seats maybe there was an issue with too many people logging in just to check availability for countdowns That is possible, however, I've never been put in a queue to check the availability for the league games, but have regularly been placed in a queue for high demand cup or European games. That would suggest that the "extra" load was not significant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roseburn open by Monday??? There's still another 600 or so that can be released in the three stands before opening the Roseburn. There are seats in Sections A, G, N1, N2, N3, T1, T2, T3 that are kept in reserve, mainly for crowd control purposes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paolo Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 By simply saying limited availibity, the club could benefit, as people swithering may decide to buy thinking there may not be many left - the opposite could of course happen too (though if you choose your stand, you will see what seats are free and can make a rough estimate). We are a business and are desperate for cash, so if the club thinks it makes a difference, then I am fine with it. Even if we do not need money, I do not see the problem. Loads of businesses do this.

Rudolf's Mate Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 How about guys we take a stand each, not as many dots to count :' /> Apologies if wrong, but doesn't it tell you how many seats are in said stand with how many left thus no need to count little dots???
