Strachsuit Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Not much more Luckydug, maybe a tad more The three stands are just under 13,400. Another 1,400 in the Roseburn means 14,800 available to the Hearts support. If there are 7,800 available it means we have sold 7,000 with that mob getting another 1,400 at least. So I'd say 8,400 just now. If we can shift 1,000 on Sat and around 200 a day between now and the game then hopefully we will have a crowd of around 10,500 or maybe 11,000. Still well short of what we should be getting IMO. Anything under 10,000 would be an utter embarrassment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hospitality won't sell out for this I wouldn't think. But in theory, yes you're right. Assuming Tynie is 16,855 (QoS crowd with every available seat sold): Less 700 for segregation and at least 300 in areas they will not sell for this game, it means total sold is 8,002.

Clerry Jambo Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I think you are forgetting to include H and J in the Roseburn. MS = 4000 GS = 3500 WF = 6000 HH&J = 1500 all approx but would suggest nearer 7000 sold. Anyway still a week to go and a home game on Saturday loads of time yet.

A lot of people will not take their Kids to this game for various reasons including being a school night, Celtic fans hateful and foul mouthed behaviour and also if you are taking two kids along that's ?40 so they can learn an Irish folk music lesson and be knackered for school in the morning. Also it is a tired fixture I think that's the last four cup competitions we have drawn them before you even think about league matches. I'm sick of the sight of them.I will be in my usual seat though. Just cheer yourself up at the thought of reminding all the non attenders what they missed when we empty the tic out the cup.

You have to work, no one is having a go at you. The obvious reason for most not going is because we'll likely get pumped. That isn't supporting you're team. We had a good game against them a feew weeks back and should have had 3 points. This is the game where the team need as much support as possible and fans are nowhere to be seen.

Craigieboy Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 The price is ridiculous imo. I've opted to take one child because for us all to go it'd have cost ?70.

The extra tickets would have been worth ?20000 after the proceeds had been split. Actually maybe even less after concessions and extra costs such as stewarding have been deducted. Hearts have priced the game at ?20 instead of ?15 so the extra ?5 makes up any shortfall. Mrs Budge has played a blinder here.She has shown that we will not take any crap from the OF just because of their large support base. Yet some of our "fans " want the club to bend over for Celtic just to get a few scraps. If and it is a big if you are not at the wind up and are serious you and others like you should be ashamed of yourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalstonjambo Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Unfortunately for me - living in London this would mean 2 days off work and there were no cheap trains, so prob ?100 minimum for me with it not being included in the season ticket. Given I have no holidays left between now and the end of the year, I'm going to have to give this one a miss. However I'd be happy to buy my ticket and donate it to someone, or big hearts if anyone wants to go but cannot afford it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be a lot of kids who won't be allowed to attend this one with it being Celtic and midweek. A good percentage of season tickets will be for kids so understandable that it's not going to sell out. Still expect around 14000 by next week.

Would I go if I was off? I might, then again I'm skint so who knows? Still, it's good to know all these hard *******s will be in attendance nonetheless. Is anyone really having a go at people working though? Due to a career change in the last 2-3 years I've had to work a lot of Saturdays and Sundays, meaning I haven't made nearly as many games as I used to, after about 15 years as a season ticket holder, making at least 70% of away games as well. This has been hard, but hopefully it won't be for long. I would take issue when anyone who has a go at someone who has a genuine reason for not making it, only a moron wouldn't. This isn't what we're discussing, it's the attitude of some people being petrified by a few naughty words from the big boys, and letting this get in the way of supporting our club. I can't understand it and it's disappointing. For my part I haven't bought a ticket yet but I will be doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh wait a minute other fans will be like you ... probably about another 10,000 of them who will be there. Catch a grip there are many different reasons why people will not be there ... people will consciously make a decison that they cannot be there, either through circumstances or simple choice that they don't want to go and you know what .... every single one of them has a valid reason because it is their own decision and they don't have to justify it to you or anybody else. You may not like the reasoning but you or anybody else do not have a right to question an individuals decision. It is staggering that you feel entitled to question decisions made by a couple of thousand individuals about whom you know absolutely nothing. Just for the record I will be there but just can't get that warm smug feeling about it that you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
