topcat Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Can we cut out all the back slappering going on, yes it's a great effort but where were these folk last year when we were on our death bed? Easy to buy tickets when things are looking up but when it was shite where were all these folk? When it was announced that the game against st Mirren could be our last ever home game and we still couldn't sell it out? So forgive me for not praising these folks to the hills, yes great effort from the fans but folk falling over themselves to celebrate flickle folk jumping into the bandwagon isn't for me. I'm pretty sure that the Sell out saints game saw people who couldn't make it buy tickets and the return them so the seats could be resold meaning that the game was over 100% sold out. Maybe my mind's playing tricks on me Also New Season Ticket Holders will tend to have been regular pay as you go types as opposed to switching all the way from non-attender to ever present in one move. Hopefully we'll also see some non-attenders move become occasionals and some occasionals become regulars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armadale Jambo Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 One of the worst 'look at me' posts I've ever read. For your information, fans of all clubs tend to get excited when they think THEIR club is improving. HMFC is as much THEIR club as it is yours or anybody else's. Who are you to tell anybody when they should buy season tickets or not? I've been going for 45yrs or thereabouts but I've no more right to buy a season ticket than a newcomer. I may have the chance to renew my seat before it's sold to someone else, but anyone can buy a season ticket whilst they are available to be purchased. What exactly is it that you are looking for, some sort of recognition that you're a 'special category of fan' not to be compared with others who weren't there through the bad times? Maybe the club should give you the job of vetting fans before they sell them a 'fickle fan' season ticket. The fickle fan season ticket could be made more expensive because they haven't suffered 'the shite' like you have. Where were all these people last year? WTF type of comment is that, our fans were brilliant last year!! No doubt you'll be gutted before the Hibs game, as you'll have to queue to get in, suck it up!! I hope we're all queuing and scrambling for tickets and counting loyalty points for years to come.

Strachsuit Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Main - 214 Gorgie - 159 Wheatfield - 316 = 689 We've shifted around 90 tickets since last night which shows that even though the rate at which we are selling tickets is slowing, the demand has not totally abated. With some folk still waiting for payday and others coming back from holidays etc I think the 12k mark is very much in sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strachsuit Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Average Attendance for 2013/14 - 14,126 Average Non Hibs/Celtic Attendance for 2013/14 - 13,541 Last seasons Total: 268,392 Will this be bettered this season? It could well be. If we get to 12,000 STs then it will definitely be bettered. For Hibs/Rangers the games are likely to sell out, for the other clubs we will sell an average of 500 or so home end match day briefs as well as hospitality etc so the home crowd would be around 12,800 say minimum for each game. Add to that away supports something like: Alloa - 200 Dumbarton - 150 Raith - 700 Livi - 400 QoS - 800 Cowden - 200 Falkirk - 1000 They are just rough guesses on what they would bring (I think QoS could potentially bring a lot more, as could Raith and Livi too but just low estimates). That would mean average crowds of 16,500 for Rangers and Hibs and then over 13,000 for pretty much all the others. I'm guessing we will have an average of about 14,500 this year but a lot will depend on how we are performing for the individual match tickets.

Koolkeith Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 In terms of attendance, we count season tickets regardless of whether folk go. I guess last year with so many folk buying extra tickets to keep the club afloat, there might have been a noticeable difference all be it small, between those attending and the actual attendance announced by Scott Wilson. However, as I told the Hobo at work, even taking this into consideration we still had considerably bigger attendances than them. They are so delusional.

hughesie27 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Had a look to see what Hibs prices were. Most of the stadium is ?405. Just ridiculous prices for the SPL never mind the Championship. Even what I would consider a crap seat (first row behind the goals) is ?355 and that is the cheapest I managed to find. With there 6000 or so sold @ an average ticket in the region of say ?370 they will probably have brought in Just over 2 million. With our 11000 sold @ an average of about 300 then we have brought in just over 3 million, with almost double a guaranteed attendance/atmosphere.

I would imagine they must have kids prices too? 11,000 punters through the door every other week will have hidden benefits to an extent too. We might sell proportionately more kids season tickets than them but we will be introducing the fans of the future will they are pricing them out. These kids will want juice/crisps/programmes and at some point in the future, these kids will become full paying adults so its the long term benefits too.

They would give tickets away for a quid if it meant they could trumpet more sold. It's the nature of the beast. They fume at the mouth over the better infrastructure Hibs have. : rofl: They hate that with a passion. Now we seem to have started to address our problems and maybe, just maybe, get things sorted and produce a competitive team they are panicking. "No Sid no we are not - we will absolutely defile you again next season - as we do every season " Herding together like wildebeest. Ready to twirl and screech that they are big, really big and bigger than a big thing that was really really big one day. And they look at each other their wee pie faces smug with a deluded grin. And they are happy, caught in the mass hysteria of a collective mental daydream. Huge stands, world cup superstars, hotels and boxes filled with plans, big plans for sure, all dancing in front of them. Soon. Soon the Messiah will come and deliver the promised land.
