Matthew Le Tissier Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Would have been nearer 2200 if credit cards had been available longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveofthegame Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Good news. Hopefully a big post-payday uptake this weekend. Going to struggle for 3,000 by Thursday though, but hopefully get there soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tartofmidlothian Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I'd say that's probably about right. Just over half the time gone and just over halfway there, plus that's not counting all the fundraising and regular ticket sales. Now Zebra's back, credit cards are coming back, lots of people have been paid and it's the weekend, I reckon that'll go up rapidly in the next three days.

Zibi Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 By looking at the dots online, we have sold way in excess of 1500 since administration. Or maybe just loads of derby tickets have been sold or seats reserved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius Stinkfinger Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 No problem at all with the club getting cash in quick but its time they allowed credit card payments again as it seems there are a lot of people holding fire until this option becomes available, wouldn't want these supporters changing their minds. I would also like to see the club issuing a statement asking for all available seats to be purchased via season ticket's. Tynie is going to need to be rammed to the rafters and buzzing next season or we are going down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Soprano Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 By looking at the dots online, we have sold way in excess of 1500 since administration. Or maybe just loads of derby tickets have been sold or seats reserved? Due to being skint ive only had the chance to renew my season ticket today. I checked online to see if my seat was still avaliable last week and according to that my seat had already been taken. When I was in the club store getting my ST this afternoon I asked if it was still available, just as an off chance and I was told it was. When I explained about what I saw online the lassie told me some seats are only available to see in the club store and online or over the phone might not be right if they tell you the seat has been taken. So I can only assume dot counting is pointless as it isn't a true reflection on tickets sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footballfirst Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I think we may be over 2000 already - see the "XXXX tickets" thread. It could be that those tickets that have been reserved but not paid for as yet have not been included in the club's figures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey1874 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Fantastic effort. Lets see where are by Monday with Zebra back on. But agree with some that more regular updates would be encouraging. Whatever is counted regularly gets done more in my experience. Just look at JKB donations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bilel Mohsni Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I'd be surprised if he haven't sold a bit more than that. At least 4k by the original deadline imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footballfirst Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 There are 1,400 fewer seats available today than there were when the online facility was withdrawn on 22nd June. On the morning of the 23rd, the club stated that more than 800 had been sold. 800 + 1400 makes 2,200 or a little less because of the timing differences.

Imeantasong Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 A lot of people will have just got paid due to month end, and maybe can't get to the ticket office until Saturday / Sunday. May be a large take up this weekend then. Hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of the difference may be due to seats being reserved (and therefore marked as unavailable on the seating plan) but not paid for yet, due to the card payment and finance issues.

Clerry Jambo Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I expect many seats will be reserved and the club cant really count them as being sold, suspect a big increase in sales over the weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmfc22 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Meanwhile St. Johnstone have yet to sell 1k in total. I would imagine clubs like Inverness would be the same. There should be no way any of these clubs should be able to compete with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Brown Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Is there any value in having a ST at St J, average crowd 3.5k. no problem in getting a seat in an area you want. Hearts have 14k home seats, hence why we buck the trend in ST's. If in the future we move to say a 25k stadium, our ST sales would probably drop. But, with our average crowds and turnover, we SHOULD always be above the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam1998 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Why are the Administrators not giving regular updates on the C/C issues?, they probably are doing all they can just like more clarity on what is happening there. Under no illusion we would smash the 3000 figure required if we had it running As money to keep us a going concern is key it makes sense to get this done asap. Surely it is still a guaranteed payment for the club although slightly delayed through C/C. Just feel the issues dragging on without an ETA is crazy - seems a lot of people including Overseas fans want this method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It helps in this situation to plead poverty Yeah the C/C option may make a reappearance just before the date we are to have the 3000 if any issues Fingers crossed, all those still to do so can use the other options to get their tickets, that way we will see bumper crowds next season again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a league so dependent on money from gates there is no way a club selling 10 times the amount of season tickets as another should ever struggle to beat them.
