luckydug Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 <p> Not having a go mate. I was referring to your original post (below) and just clarifying that there was no rush. Hibs have been putting them on sale early for the past few years due to their cash flow problems (Farmer's ?41,667pm) and are now in that cycle where they need money in early as it's spent earlier. If we did that I'm sure there would be some conspiracy theories that we're in big trouble and Levein has ran off with all the cash... 'I was just thinking if Hibs had such a rush from fans to buy early because of the uniform pricing structure perhaps we should have tried that as well. Supposing we had said same price for anywhere in the ground and also made it first come first served. We would probably have shifted a lot more tickets at this stage and the club would have the money in the bank to help the playing budget. We should consider this approach for next season'. Quote MultiQuote OK Rudolf no problem. It was just an idea to release money for the playing budget. Now I come to think about it a pretty crap idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prof Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Some people want to wake up. Supporters have a perfect right to delay buying season tickets or in fact not buy any- it doesn't make them any less a supporter of the club than the windbags boasting they have bought thier tickets. The reality is that the club that has a settled squad, confident players and manager, and record season ticket sales is Hibs not Hearts and the reason for that is the disgraceful way the club has been run since RN left. Our team moral is rock bottom, majority of support is fed up listening to endless excuses from IC and watching players signed by CL/IC that are not fit to wear a Hearts jersey. And yes I have renewed but I am far from happy and don't go along with the endless rubbish that IC will somehow come good. Also the one thing I won't do is criticise those who decide to buy walk up tickets rather than season tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Treasurer Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Not starving - delaying so as to make a point, showing displease at the pathetic way the footballing side is being mishandled. It's widely known that ST money is vital to clubs in order to prepare for the season ahead. Delaying them receiving that ST money is in effect starving the club of much needed funds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Treasurer Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Not saying it is an organized campaign, just that some people are still seething about last season and are at the "feck 'em" stage. Been there before many times and they almost always sign up for another year at the last minute. There just isn't the enthusiasm right now. Yet the same people that are saying "feck em" are the same ones jumping up and down demanding new signings. What do they think the club are going to use to fund these signings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nookie Bear Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Yet the same people that are saying "feck em" are the same ones jumping up and down demanding new signings. What do they think the club are going to use to fund these signings I didn't say it was a logical thought-process, and it's only an observation based on speaking to a few folk. Hpw often do we say "never again", and then find ourselves walking along Gorgie Road the next Saturday? This is just the same and I have no doubt that the vast majority will renew and, if they don't, then they will not have the right to jump and down.

Boab Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I will renew today but that awful feeling in my stomach watching us last season and seeing complete no marks wearing our clubs colours is the reason I have dragged my knuckles.... I honestly think there is no major non-renewal chicanery going on. The absence of any early bird prices..I think the club missed a trick here....and a general feeling that there will be plenty time to renew, means the uptake will be good...but gradual. Without any concrete numbers...again, don't expect many updates....it's all conjecture. I'm usually a glass half full guy...and will renew regardless...but I can understand completely, people having reservations with the same coaching regime in place. We, basically, need to get off to a flyer or people may decide their non-renewal was justified. .....or maybe we'll sell 15K and can come on here and destroy the detractors !!

GavK1012 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Och well thats 2 renewed there just now...

We, basically, need to get off to a flyer or people may decide their non-renewal was justified. .....or maybe we'll sell 15K and can come on here and destroy the detractors !! There's a group of half a dozen of us holding off for a few reasons. 1. We haven't decided where we want to sit and a couple are prevaricating on that 2. Some are looking for a vast improvement in the recruitment activity 3. Some would prefer Cathro and/or Levein to be gone 4. Almost all are so apathetic to it at the moment but I imagine we'll end up renewing. There might be one who is digging his heels in and seems determined. So there's 6 of us. 5 of whom will probably renew. 3 of whom ordinarily would have renewed long before now. I guess theres a lot of folk in this school of thought. Most of those will renew I imagine. The big problem here isn't going to be non renewal. The big problem is selling extra ST's and filling those extra seats. I just don't see us exceeding last year, we'll be lucky to equal it. Unless there is an unforeseen sea change in one or two areas there isn't any danger we're going to sell an extra 2000 or anything close to it.

Would never knock anyone though after that nonsense last season. Its a case of what comes first though isn't it. The ST sales followed by the players or the player recruitment generating the ST sales.I think a few folk have got loyalty fatique to be honest. If your going to show, as a fan base, this level of loyalty, then it has to be reflected back by the absolute best efforts of the club to get the best most successful team on the park. Appreciate there is a stand to build etc etc and we all subscribe for that and other projects but there isn't any point in having it sat there with 3000 empty seats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a decent Hearts team playing a nice bit of football and pushing hard for second would attract 18k a week and fill for the bigger games. Another poor Hearts team flirting with the bottom six or , god forbid, relegation, would be lucky to maintain 13-14k for very much longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucille's Thirsty Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I do believe that supporters have the right not to buy a season ticket if they have no intention of every going to see Hearts. What I don't understand is supporters that are delaying buying one because they want to prove a point to the club,that it's not been good enough,they'll get one later doesn't make sense to me at all I've bought a season ticket as soon as they came out,I'm in the view that Cathro is just not good enough yet but I'm willing to give him support,it's his first summer and season with the club.
