Sold seats or empty seats? ?

[gjcc]

Seats available in the 2 open stands I think. 

Not sure of the available capacity of each stand.

Maybe 5500ish sold?

Counting sold seats is tricky because you have to guess what is not available. 

 

Dot counts are what is available.

I would estimate based on seats which were put on sale we have sold around 4500. There were around 100 seats in each of S,R and Q not on sale plus 422 in X. In addition to these there are 250 in T and 81 in N not available for sale.

Sooner they open the Wheatfield the better.

Slim chance of that happening imo. Still 4,000 to sell before two stands are full then I believe Roseburn opens up next at TV’s request. Probably all depends on who we sign in next couple of weeks. A big signing may add a few thousand to crowd though many may just wait until following Wed to see them. 

Sunday afternoon on tv is a lose, lose for clubs. 

[GorgieRules22]

I get that people will be feeling the pinch after Christmas and it’s on tv but it’s arguably our biggest game of the season and only £15 an adult and £5 a kid I’m no quite sure why you would decide not to go ??‍♂️

I think we’ll end up with an 11,000 -12,000 crowd in the end.

I'm going to ticket office Monday to buy 6 so that'll leave just 3994 to sell before the other stands are opened!

I would be amazed if a third stand didn’t open up

[Sir Gio]

We need a Scottish Cup run and we need our fans to help the cause. 

 

Maybe 12k which is still a bit disappointing at the price 

[Ministry MK2]

Sales will pick up before the game. Reckon it will be pretty full. .

They'll need to do something, to accommodate the Livi fans.  I know there wont be many of them, but they'll need to put them in the Roseburn.

[Rudolf]

Livingston will probably bring about 1k which is about 80% of their home support. 

 

That’s impressive and it seems to be a trend now that away supports in cup games are bigger than normal with the opposite applying to the home support.

They’re not stats though. 

 

Silly you right enough?

[luckydug]

We took 4000 to Fir Park for the cup qf.

That's well above average for a league game.

Pretty sure Livingston will bring more to Tynecastle for the cup tie than they will for the league game soon after.

Rudolph is spot on with his assesment imo.

£15 is very reasonable..... Should bring out a few non season folk like the Murrayfield offer....

I thought it was a decent post.

 

The Motherwell away game last season we sold out 5k away, which is at least double our usual away support yet home cup games and we’re looking at around 1/2 to 2/3 of our usual attendance.

 

 

[Harry Potter]

Wheres all the punters that never missed a game in the championship, wheels come off their glory hunting.

Before i get hit with im a bigger fan than you, im just stating a fact.

Not getting into an argument, but I totally agree with poster, that Livi will bring 1K.

They had about 500 in the league game, after the recent mauling, they will want to see repeat and be well up for it

 

What is your guess?

Still think it was a silly move not letting folk buy their season ticket seat and this will stop people going.

 

I bought tickets for the Inverness cup game in the Gorgie Stand and the view was deadful we could hardly see the goals although from the seating plan you would never have thought the view would be that bad.

[jr ewing]

Section B was the only bit available when the Wheatfield was eventually opened for the league cup tie earlier this season.

I would guess that if they bring more than 500 then they will be Hibbies pretending to be Livi fans.

Were you facing the right way? I've sat in every stand and have not had a dreadful view in terms of the pitch. Occasionally the quality on view, but never the actual view. 

[132goals1958]

As a matter of course I and my 2 cohorts are going but no doubt like thousands of others will get round to buying the tickets whenever that might be. 

[Wee Mikey]

Precisely. By hanging back for the cup game at Murrayfield I bagged 5 top seats. Yup, the ones that they mysteriously held back. Hence, the folks who queued and bought first were being offered seats requiring binoculors. Bonkers. I'm happy to sit anywhere at Tynie, by the way.

Now that you mention it maybe that's what was wrong. Very clever, of course I was facing the right way. 

 

I was in section V just above the concourse part where you walk in and could only see a few feet of the top of the goalposts.

 

I was really suprised at how poor the view of the goal area was from this section. We moved further in to section X and much further back for the next game and it was much better.

 

I have sat in every stand as well and there was a pretty poor view from Section A in the Wheatfield of the goals as well.

On my latest count just over 5000 now sold. Will obviously be higher than that when hospitality sales are added in.

For a Scottish Cup tie, that's pretty poor from us considering our 2nd biggest stand is closed.  Even considering the date and KO time it's still poor.  

[Phil Dunphy]

How many people who can’t be arsed with this one will be DESPERATE for tickets should we get a glamour tie in the next round or a run to the final, I wonder.

In ticket office today only T and N or Gorgie available . "No plans to open other stands" .

I'll wait and see

[Sir Gio]

The new norm for the cups. Would expect in the event of decent weather, walk ups on the day to be substantial. Then complaints about q's!!!

[Dannie Boy]

When’s  ma ticket going to arrive?

I like many was waiting for Wheatfield. 

May as well just get it now then.

I think we’ll open the Wheatfield section by section, same as the ICT league cup game. Still plenty of time for people to buy tickets.

We are just trying to make vanacek feel at home. He’s used to less than half full stadiums so he’ll thrive in this environment for his debut...

C'mon, Phil, you're better than that post. Try looking for the reason for slow sales, like the fact this game is on BBC at half two on a Sunday.

Three o'clock Saturday is when this game should be played, with no cameras. 

It will never go back to that as the clubs get good money from TV.

If we get a "glamour" tie in the next round, if we go through, it will be on the box. The game's up apart from semis and finals.

5,000 tickets shifted with less than 2 weeks until the game is pretty shocking though, however you look at it. It’s £15 and £5. 

 

I’ve no issue with anyone choosing to watch this one on the telly, just not if they come begging for someone’s reference number the next time we go to Easter Road.
