gashauskis9 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Quick question folks. I had a season ticket for years and after a few years out due to living away/kids etc I’m getting back on the wagon. This time round, I’m getting 2 for my kids as well, but I don’t envisage they’ll want to go to every game and I certainly won’t entertain taking them to OF games just yet. How easy would it be for me to have their seats upgraded to adult tickets for the games they can’t go to so instead I can take a couple of mates? Do the club support doing this? Wouldn’t mind if it would involve paying full price for those games. Saves having 2 empty seats those weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a reference to the insinuation made by the club to the singing section regarding their chosen name, asking for trouble. IT WAS A JOKE. I've not read much of the thread your referring to, but from what you are saying it suggest that the club are disappointed that the singing section are referring to themselves as the Gorgie Boys, as it has the potential to cause trouble. Think it is something I may have to bring up with the club and ask them what their thoughts are on the T-Shirt I bought which has Gorgie Boys printed on it. Oh, and I better throw into the conversation I bought it in the club shop as an official club product.

JALBO Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Count today at 5.30pm. Wheatfield - 892 Roseburn - 1167 Main - 583 Gorgie - 487 Total - 3129 Based on 15,934 available seats for regular season tickets, estimate 12,805 sold. (+43 from yesterday evening's count). Strong sales today. If these figures are close to accurate for regular sales, we should be well over 13,000 sold, including hospitality, wheelchair, blind and PA season tickets - assuming sales in these categories are similar to last season..

I know there’s a thread for it but thatvRangers bid has really riled me up and going by the thread on it, quite a few others are pissed off with it too. Could be a show of solidarity.

I imagine the deadline of 31st July to buy a season ticket for all matches has more to do with it. Sales might well be healthy on Monday and Tuesday too, especially if things go our way against Inverness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougie Masterton Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 It may have something to do with tickets paid for by credit cards. This money I believe is released game by game by the credit card companies, if tickets are sold after the first game it would mess up payments.

luckydug Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I expect if someone was to roll up at the ticket office after the deadline and ask to buy a ST they would be sold one. As long as they understand that due to the sale of match tickets their choice would be limited. I'd be amazed if the club was to turn away good money although going by recent events anythings possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This week they owe us £1,000,000 to be split over 18/19/20 games (guess they don’t know that bit so have agreed a number due to the split). After match 1, they would just add the season ticket sale price to the pot split by the remaining number of games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure its that. i suggested tplast year we could have sold tickets for the first game only in the Roseburn and continued to sell other stand season tickets. However this wouldn’t be possible for the Celtic game. Maybe continue season ticket sales in the main stand only and for category B (Roseburn) until the next home game goes on sale in mid August.

We will, but Hearts need to take ST sales offline and do them via the TO or over the phone instead because they'll start selling individual match tickets online. It would require an extra ticket for any match where the individual match ticket for that seat had been sold, which is why it needs to be done by the TO.
