Toggie88 Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 25 minutes ago, Sir Gio said: 15 out of every section into W8. That gap is going to be annoying I don’t think it’ll be that bad, even if we don’t start selling W8. If you have a look on e-tickets, you’ll see that the sections aren’t split up like Tynie (with a staircase separating each section). At Murrayfield they split right down the middle and each section having two stair cases up the middle, splitting the sections into 3 columns. Naturally people in W6 and W10 will stretch out and end up moving a few seats into W8 - taking up the outer columns. You’ll probably also have people in the upper sections of W6 and W10 decide to move to the front middle column of W8 for a better view. All in all, I think it would just be the middle top section of W8 that might be completely free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters who registered an account with Hearts either via the Ticket Office or on the eTicket's website on, or prior to, the 26th of September 2018 will be eligible to purchase tickets.

Jambo-Fox Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Missing dots!! The lovely fantastic Jalbo has accounted for approximately 30,500 dots in the maroon half of the stadium. Assuming the Celtic are allocated the same (??) that gives the clubs a combined 61,000 allocation! So where are the missing 6,000 dots??? Surely, surely, surely the SPFL have not allocated Celtic 35/36,000?? Not saying I’d be against that (looks like we will be short of 30,000 allocation/ sales) but lack of transparency would be a concern!!

Jammy T Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 There’s a good chance Celtic maybe got around 10% more tickets than us - strange it wasn’t officially announced though.

Full house matches at Hampden such as Cup finals the tickets are never split solely between the teams.

Jambos_1874 Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Hearts have been getting crowds of around 18k this season at Tynecastle. There are now going to be another 10k on top of that at Murrayfield. Are these extra fans mainly just Jambos who don't go all that often but are coming along because it's in Edinburgh and it's a big game and also perhaps family members of those who go on a regular basis but aren't normally fussed? Perhaps lots of neutrals too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.e. they’ve still got just over 2k tickets left, so sold just under 28k. Might be unaware that the total allocation is actually closer to 30.5k, meaning sales are closer to the 28.5k counted by Jalbo et al. Also wouldn't account for hospitality sales.

It woudl be great if we could get even some of the fans who come along on Sunday to become regulars and sell out Tynecastel every week, even for the minor games against Hamilton, Livi etc. People go through phases. There’s 7 in our group going on Sunday. 5 of which aren’t present ST holders, but all were at one point in time (talking multiple seasons, even decades, not just one). Other commitments can take over - work, studies, family - but these people are still Jambos to the core. Ask them, and they’ll all be of the view that they will be ST holders again but for whatever reason, haven’t managed it the last few seasons. The fact that major games at Tynie are now regularly sold out and on TV, also makes it far easier to justify not going along but those people are still there - cup parades have shown that. Price plays a large part as well. It would be complete financial suicide to do this and is not a serious suggestion, but if ST prices were £100/£50 and capacity allowed, then I reckon we’d potentially shift 30k or more.
