Footballfirst Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 50 odd newly available in T1/2 and maybe a few in N2 today. Unless more to be released it should be 14,000 minus dots for the running total. Those look like some of the mysterious seats that appeared for sale for individual matches, but weren't available as STs last season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboHeriot Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Was having a look at old photos on London Hearts the other day - there were some shots of the old part of N in the background. Does anybody know if we are completely forbidden to house supporters in that part? Wouldn't cost too much to rebuild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Of The Cat Cafe Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 So pretty much double what the wee team have sold... and counting. Magnificient effort. Here's hoping for another great season to keep up the interest!

CJGJ Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Got to admit I though we'd match last season but no more.........it's great to see that those who forecast an increase were right and the club seem vindicated in their policy of full season tickets for sections of the Roseburn.

BigC Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I think the space in N needs to be left without seats because that's where the temporary TV studio goes and it would be too much hassle to put seats back in for every game we're not on TV.

dkmmgcycbwc Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Actually this must surely be the ALL TIME record sales because prior to "recent times" STs were only for the stand.

JamboHeriot Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 My shot at doing the mother of all dot counts ? showing number of seats available against section seating capacity (source: FF and others on this thread), percentage of available seats per stand sold as season tickets, and cross-referenced against last year?s sales information to provide statistical rigour and allow for further in-depth analysis??. Wheatfield A - 75 / 968 B - 63 / 802 C - 13 / 802 D - 3 / 772 E - 38 / 802 F - 52 / 802 G - 121 / 970 Total: 365 / 5,918 (94% of available seats sold as season tickets to nearest 1%) Roseburn H ? 22 / 765 J ? 112 / 718 Total: 134 / 1,483 (91% of available seats sold as season tickets to nearest 1%) Main N1 ? 4 / 207 N2 ? 2 / 234 N3 ? 101 / 580 P ? 24 / 366 Q ? 19 / 438 R ? 15 / 507 S ? 27 / 527 T1 ? 4 / 207 T2 ? 6 / 254 T3 ? 95 / 508 Total: 297 / 3,828 (92% of available seats sold as season tickets to nearest 1%) Gorgie V ? 30 / 674 W ? 8 / 634 X ? 15 / 367* Y ? 35 / 670 Z ? 31 / 766 Total: 119 / 3,111 (96% of available seats sold as season tickets to nearest 1%) *Total number of seats showing as open for season ticket purchases in section X Total seats available: 14,340 Less available seats: 915 Less variance in X: 75 (additional seats which may not have been available for ST sales) Les unavailable in N3: 105 (restricted view, not sold) Less side seats in H: 27 POSSIBLE season ticket sales to date: 13,218 To cross-reference this with last year, we were told season ticket sales were a little over 12,500. The capacity in the 3 stands (available for season tickets) last year shows as roughly 12,782, and we think there were about 80-90 available seats for general sale, which could suggest it is easy to overestimate available seats for whatever reason by roughly 200. Using this logic, it?s possible that the actual seats available for season ticket sales in the Main, Gorgie and Wheatfield stands is actually around 12,580 Using this figure to base the sales so far this year on, it would bring the total seats available for season ticket sales down to 14,140 ? which would give us the following scenario: Total seats available: 14,140 Less available seats: 915 Less variance in X: 75 (additional seats which may not have been available for ST sales) Les unavailable in N3: 105 (restricted view, not sold) Less side seats in H: 27 POSSIBLE season ticket sales to date: 13,018 Either way, it would appear plausible that we?ve sold a little over 13,000 tickets as Phase One draws to a close. If so, remarkable stuff really. I?m not doing that again. Bravo, tres bien, sehr gut! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudolf Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 This might stop any future season ticket announcements from our friends in Leith. On all known figures we have sold TWICE the amount and that when Hibs tickets have been on sale for a far longer period as well, never mind their new signing announcements aimed at boosting sales and morale. They put them on sale at the beginning of March when they didn't know why league they'd be in. It's pretty safe to assume that was to help cash flow which leads to the assumption that they're already spending the cash as per last season when they went on sale at the end of February.

FarmerTweedy Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 EEN article says season ticket "capacity" is 14,000 so we can pretty reliably count exact total sold now from remaining dots. 50 odd newly available in T1/2 and maybe a few in N2 today. Unless more to be released it should be 14,000 minus dots for the running total. If the EEN says the season ticket capacity is 14,000, the one thing we know for sure is that the season ticket capacity is not 14,000! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cairneyhill Jambo Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Wonder how the vermin toe rags will spin this one to their ever dwindling band of losers on sisterfister.net. Actually who cares ? Sorry I even posted. The Harp Awakes poston Hibs.net is a belter "the great Tynie myth of having a bigger support than Hibs. They think if they say it so often it's a fact. Edinburgh is divided right down the middle and there's nothing between the size of the respective supports. They count their home attendances differently which enhances their figures and they've been on the crest of a wave since avoiding oblivion and gaining promotion which has naturally boosted their ST sales. If we get promoted next season I reckon our average home support in 16/17 will be bigger than the jumbos." They'll never have a bigger support than us, never.
