Stupid Sexy Flanders Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I'm talking about guys who supported the team for many many years. You don't get a Blue Peter badge for being around the last few months. In fact,it is this kind of talk that i'm against.Seems to be an internet thing as I genuinely don't know anyone who talks like this in le boozer. In your first post you were talking about guys who will "walk up when things are going well". Maybe we're talking about different things here.

No,I don't think we are. In some cases it may well be the same people who haven't been going for a length of time,who will return if we get near winning the Championship,for example. It's just the way it is...and has always been.I just have a dislike of people having a go at others because they don't go to the football.It's their business.

tynietigers Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Who cares what reasons people have for renewing or not the point to it all is filling Tyni weather that be people paying on the day and drip feeding the club through the season.

RobNox Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 How many did we sell last year? It's clear from posts on JKB that there are a fair number of 'lapsed' or new fans who have bought season tickets for next season, who didn't buy them last season. I would hope we could see a sizeable increase in ST sales versus last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeeToonJambo Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Wheatfield: 218 Gorgie: 12 Bertie: 20 Total: 250 Interesting. 5 extra seats made available in the space of a couple of hours. I assume these must be existing ticket holders who have moved and their seats offered for resale. This has happened a lot over the past couple of weeks which means that more new/returned season ticket holders are purchasing their seats than the figures suggest. All good stuff and shows just how much the revival of the club means to Hearts supporters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strachsuit Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Wheatfield: 218 Gorgie: 12 Bertie: 20 Total: 250 Clerry am I right in saying that if this figure is accurate based on the number of seats available outwith existing (2013/14) ST holders who have time to renew, then we have sold roughly 2,750 new STs this year? Basically, capacity outwith Roseburn is 13,500 - less the current STs to be renewed (10,500) = 3,000? If that is the case (which I highly doubt!) then we are looking at a staggering number of ST holders. Even if only 90% of ST holders renew, that would be 9,450 plus 2,750 new ST holders, giving us a total of 12,200. Surely not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footballfirst Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 My best guess is that there are approx 12,250 seats available for ST holders, due to various blocks of seats being withheld due to security, media, hospitality and poor sight line considerations. With only 250 available, that would mean that if every ST from last season was renewed, we would be looking at 12,000 for the forthcoming season.

The People's Chimp Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I imagine a fair few have still to renew. My dad and I for starters, plus I haven't heard from other mates whether they've done it yet. So I'm sure the next 2 weeks will see a pretty steady number of renewals. Got to be over 10k STs sold by the 13th July IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that was probably my thought as well that the full 13,500 are not released for your above reasons. Still, at a 90% renewal rate (conservative estimate) then we would be looking at 11,000 based on the current figure for new STs. Anything over and above last year's total would be a terrific effort.

Harry Palmer Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Sorry if already posted but over 8000 according to this. http://www.heartsfc....2241384_3944996 Ann's request 02.07.2014 Fans not planning on renewing their season tickets have been urged to inform the club know as soon as possible to allow them to be released to fellow-supporters. With more than 8000 tickets sold so far ahead of the Championship kick-off next month, demand to see Robbie Neilson's new-look Hearts team in action has been huge. With supporters having until Sunday, July 13 to retain their seat for the new campaign, there are currently hundreds of season tickets on hold awaiting renewal. This has meant the large number of new fans eager to purchase a season ticket can only obtain those with a restricted view, such is the limited number remaining. Owner Ann Budge, while delighted at the level of uptake so far, has asked supporters who will not be renewing - for whatever reason - to let the club know so fellow-fans can benefit. "Season ticket sales have been exceptional and that is great news for the club," said Ann. "We all hope, of course, that as many as possible of our current season ticket holders will renew. "However, we are also aware that there can be all sorts of reasons, why, in some cases, this might not be possible. "If fans find themselves in that position, can I ask that they notify the club as soon as possible and that will allow us to give better service to their fellow-supporters. "To be clear, however, fans still have until July 13 to renew. So, if they are undecided, they should not feel pressurised to make up their mind."

Footballfirst Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Sorry if already posted but over 8000 according ot this. http://www.heartsfc....2241384_3944996 If that is accurate then it would mean up to 2,500 seats being released on 14th July. From what feedback I've had from ST holders, I'm certain that the renewal rate will be higher than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
