So if we take away the non attending ST holders there was still 15500 Hearts fans there yesterday. Not bad for a 12.00 KO in the middle of a poor run of results and performances. The fact is the club sold all the tickets available to the home support. If you are a Hibs fan at the wind up you will be aware of the masses of green seats on show every game at ER while still claiming crowds of 17k.

I don't think there has ever been an update from the claimed 20099 after the building of the new stand. It looks like the effective capacity is about 500 to 600 lower. The various nibbles at seats (TV studio, Wheatfield tunnel, etc don't seem to amount to as much of a shortfall as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitch41 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 (edited) When the game is a sell out there is no good reason to have as many empty seats. I couldn't make a game last season so i just phoned the ticket office gave them my details and they sold my seat.....no problem. This lets a fan get a seat and gives Hearts a few quid.

ST holder for 15 years and have never made more than half the games. But once I could afford it it was a way of supporting the club financially and guaranteeing a seat and cup semi and final ticket. It is very rare for walk up tickets not to be available the day before a game so see no reason to routinely release my seat. Or feel guilty or uncaring if I don't.

I probably attend a dozen or so games but am lucky in that I can now afford to help the club financially so still get the ST every year. Fully appreciate it is very difficult for others to do the same. That said I would not buy a platinum seat and am in the Gorgie so much less than 400 quid.
