Andy.C Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Already got my season ticket, but wouldn't mind looking at what is available for moving seats. Should this be do-able on etickets? Nothing obvious just now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwidoug Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 JKB should have a fining system with all proceeds going to FoH or Save the Children at the discretion of the mods. When people like me have a big moan I should get a message saying that was a £10 moan kiwi. Great news re the sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many ‘non renewals’ was there from the previous season as a comparison? Plenty time left to boost sales to a very good number. Not sure as you can’t really directly compare numbers. STs last season went on sale mid May with a 2 week renewal period They've gone on sale mid March with a 6 week renewal period. Trying to compare apples with oranges. Only way we will know is the final figure when the season starts. Got to admit that the number sold is higher than I anticipated it would be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will possibly add up to 1000 max, i would have thought through "new" sales. But 4k non renewals during the initial 6 week phase must still be alarming for the club. Yeah, it must be very alarming that we've had a fairly similar level of renewals during the renewal period this year as we had last year. Very alarming indeed!

Its certainly the only figure available to us for comparison. I agree though, the final figure is what matters. We’ve stepped up.

Gorgie_Rules Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Bit concerned when first read 10,000 as that means around 3,500 haven’t renewed. However considering this matches last years figure it’s good news Can’t see us selling another 3,500+ to match last year however with the increased capacity folk can give it time to mull it over knowning that they’ll probably still be able to pick up a decent seat closer to the time. Hibs announced they had sold 10,000 last weekend however theirs have been on sale since mid-march, 10,000 in 5 weeks is a good effort.

In fairness, I don’t know if that number is correct but given the timing of the cut off date right after end of month/pay day, there probably was a bit of a huge surge in last few days.
