No skin off my arse as I am a man of leisure, but the main site still says tickets available for distribution from 16th October. I am assuming others turned up today to collect their Tickets, hence the statement issued on Twitter.. We have friends over from Canada who were in the shop yesterday picking up their Scotland v England tickets and the lass behind the counter had said to another customer that the SF tickets were now in so looks like they had them yesterday but it will take a while to sort them out and envelope. Enjoy yer expensive Nickleson's pint you should pop into the guards club accross the road cheaper pints in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Boy Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 4 hours ago, Gorgie_Rules said: Unfortunately there will be a lot of them based in the east coast that will go when they perhaps wouldnt have due to it being closer for them. However for European games (and potentially Scottish cup), their tickets are automatically ‘bought’ for them by the club, although for this one they have to actually have to purchase a ticket which may hinder their sales a little. I suspect they will be close to selling out, however once we start selling tickets in the upper south on Thursday it won’t seem like there is much between the two ends on the day. The Edinburgh and Midlothian ones are often even skankier and more deranged than the West Coast strain. The smelly West Coast ****ers you can at least make an argument for them maybe just supporting their local team, even if their local team is human trash. The glory-hunting bigoted ***** from these parts are often a breed apart. Vermin in its absolute purest form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JALBO Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Thanks to mainstandjambo for the lunchtime update. Dot Count Central on overtime just now with this and the Aberdeen game to manage. Dot Count at 5pm: Please bear in mind all the caveats mentioned previously about possible unreleased seats. West Stand - currently selling W3-W17 (lower) and W10-W22 (upper) Allocation currently on sale: 8388 Seats remaining: 823 Seats apparently sold - West Stand: 7565 Hearts End (South Stand) - currently selling S1-S17 (lower) and S2-S4 (upper) Allocation currently on sale: 6709 Seats remaining: 926 Seats apparently sold - South Stand: 5783 East Stand - currently selling E11-E17 (lower) and E14-E22 (upper) Allocation currently on sale: 4643 Seats remaining: 50 Seats apparently sold - East Stand: 4593 Total seats currently made available for sale: 19,740 Total seats remaining: 1,799 Total seats apparently sold: 17,941** **When W3 and S4 were released yesterday morning, there appeared to be 359 already sold - so I expect they were actually withheld and not put on sale. On that assumption, actual apparent sales are probably closer to 17,582. **Around 350 seats were released in sections already for sale in all three stands today. So actual sales today would be around 500. There may still be blocks of seats withheld in other sections already on sale that would affect the estimated sales figures above. **The club haven't announced any sales update since their 15,000+ figure. It could be that including hospitality, wheelchair, blind and PA sales, we're now close to 18,500. There does appear to be grey'd out zones in the middle of East and West stand allocations, plus a smaller section in South lower that are presumably for hospitality seating. Tomorrow's count will be a bit later at around 7pm - my last one before the public sale begins on Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgie_Rules Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 I might be being pessimistic, but my prediction earlier in the thread of 20,000 won't be far off IMO. It is hard to gauge what % of folk that want to go don't have their tickets by now, my assumption that 80% of folk that are going have their tickets would mean we'll sell another 3,500 to take us to 21,000. Many who don't go to games often will have secured a ticket as a current season ticket holders +1 IMO. Hope I am wrong but I can't see the demand on thursday being as high as many are predicting. Still, 21,000 would be a good crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
