Last year we didn't hit 14k until the half season tickets went on sale in November. We will be at least on a par with last season by the time the new season starts. Just ignore those two dafties.

We are relying on newcomers now. The very fact that we sold, apparently, 4k in the last few days of the renewal period would indicate that that deadline was key. There simply isnt a band of people waiting in the wings to buy a ST. Poor performances and ridiculous fixture schedules preclude anyone other than diehards from wanting a ST.

I would expect us to be 10-15% down on last year i reckon. The prolonged sales period was designed to get the money in early and clearly, the vast majority of people that are going to buy one, have already done so. All credit to those who have renewed, for the loyalty and patience that they have demonstrated but , clearly, AB needs to look back at last year's managerial search and realise that she made the wrong call 10-15% down hmm lets work this through so 14,000 ST’s last year. So 1400-2100 ST’s lower than last season which would be ST’s of 11900-12,600 And we are already by the counters prediction around 11,800. im going to then say you’re slavering utter pish if thats your estimate.

I also share the same blind love for the club as you claim. Difference being, I want Hearts to sell as many season tickets as possible whereas you’d clearly be content if we sold less than last year. Whether it’s a ‘significant’, ‘worrying’ or ‘10-15%’ decrease (as has been your claim in recent weeks depending on how the wind blows) your agenda is abundantly clear. I pity you.

Once we hit 12k his language will change. Then we’ll announce 13k and it’ll change further. Its what he does. All in the name of not wanting CL as manager. Pathetic stuff really.

JALBO Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) One thing I noticed from the season ticket count last year, was that the figures that we were counting started to diverge from the club's official figures as time went on. Because we can't count everything - primarily hospitality season passes or wheelchair or blind and PA season tickets are unavailable for us to track - the excellent work done on here will almost certainly be behind the actually figures already achieved. At this stage it may be that we're only 100 or so behind the actually figure sold (so Hearts might actually be past 12,000 already), but by the time August came we were well over 200 behind, and by the time club said we'd reached 14,000, we were counting more like 13,500-13.600 - over 400 behind the actual sales when everything was included. So whatever figures we end up with here, based on last year, it's a reasonable assumption that we'll be behind the curve of actual sales. One other thing from last year - the club didn't give us every 'thousand' milestone, so just because we haven't heard the club announce 11,000 or 12,'000 doesn't mean we haven't passed both.
