Jambof3tornado Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I have just bought a season ticket. Couldn't last year due to non-football related circumstances.Bloody glory hunters!! Only joking, great stuff, the more the merrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tynietigers Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Last year we had 12,500. This year with six weeks until the season starts we have circa 12,700 (going by FF's figs for no's sold). Not doubting that season tickets are selling well but the club would be letting everybody know if we had sold over 12,500 ST but maybe they still will. The total is the figure that counts. The renewal % figure is flawed as we don't know how many simply bought elsewhere (especially Roseburn). I'm confident we'll sell 13,000 and that's 4% more than last season despite a price hike of just over 7.5%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomaso Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 If sales keep going at this rate we should release another section to Hearts fans in the Roseburn and cut the away allocation to one section! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he's not praying Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I'd have thought we'd have heard if 12000 had been sold. That's not to cast doubt on the guys doing the counting but I too find it strange we'd announce 'over 11000' but not 12000. Hopefully we hear soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paulo Sergio Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Waiting to announce it with the start of phase 2, something along the ling of 'Don't miss out only 1000 left.'

chrisyboy7 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 another factor will be children moving up to adult category - quite a few will think twice about renewing these I've sat with my daughter fir a few seasons. She's now 12 so now an under 18 ticket required. From ?50 to ?165 is too steep for me unfortunately. So just myself this year....

I am genuinely a reluctant attendee. It's overpriced and the football is mediocre - if you don't have a season ticket you need a membership card ?25 or so to be able to buy tickets. But the best part of the day out is the 4 pubs on each corner of the ground and this is the last season at griffin park I think, so worth it for that experience alone (other than the fact that 1 of the pubs is the HQ for the SW london Celtic supporters club , shame as it has a great wee beer garden). They do sometimes do ticket deals as well so I'll keep you in mind if anything decent comes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jammy T Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 London prices though? Maybe. But Championship football. It's about ?26 for cheapest walk up ticket. I'd say Fulham were the best value tickets in London - you could get in for ?24 when they were still in the EPL and sometimes did ?15 specials if they hadn't sold out.

hmfc22 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 To put things into perspective, we have sold more than the 4th and 5th biggest clubs in Scotland combined.

JamboHeriot Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Great effort from all the fans who have purchased. It also makes the remaining tickets for walk ups a hotter ticket.

japanjambo Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Just bought one in The Gorgie. Actually bought it when they went on sale at first...but moved back to 7th row in section Y, from row 2. Didn't get one last year, as was in Japan for a good few months. Just bought individual match tickets for home games when I was back. Will be in Japan for a few months this season too, but thought 'feck it'...feels great! HHGH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertDawg Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Don't worry Lynn. I've bought season tickets the last three years although I now live inn Arizona! My son gives them away every home game.
