Its possibly because it's not 100% over the line but they've had to make a statement of sorts to keep supporters waiting on finance in the loop. Possibly...?

Nah, I think it's fair enough to know who your dealing with regards dishing out DDs and credit agreements, club just giving out enough information as is possible. I'm sure it's just a final bit of due diligence by the club to safeguard all involved. Possibly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I meant was I'm pretty sure if someone wants their season ticket on credit they are not likely to not do it because a certain company is financing it especially when it is on the exact same terms as Zebra.

Quite a few waiting on Zebra replacement I’d imagine. Also payday for many this weekend and probably planning to pay before Tuesday deadline (now 31/5). Also been a very expensive month for Hearts fans, semi, final, ER, season ticket so maybe more than usual waiting for Zebra option. Probably not 3.5k but lots of reasons for shortfall, at this stage.

Martin_T Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 We haven't renewed. I've had a platinum season ticket since 2014, but we are for the past three seasons in particular, not been getting anywhere near £500+ of worth of entertainment.

I thought the 13,500 number also included half-seasons so it would be a Jan 19 total. Regardless it be something similar come mid-August, of that I have no doubt.

Unfortunately we are the same. 4x platinum tickets for a lot of years but we just haven’t enjoyed this season. big debates as to what / who will renew. Not looking hugely promising that all 4 will. Perhaps 2 at most as things stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambothump Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Quite few not re-newing, I will reluctantly, I like my seat. Many people who have season tickets, don't get to every game, season ticket becomes an expensive luxury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inch Hearts Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Not a chance there’s been over 10k season tickets sold. You’re probably looking at closer to 5,000 at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still can’t see how it’s as low as 5k as you suggest. 13k less 25% leaves just under 10k. That suggests nearly 50% of non finance st holders haven’t renewed. Not getting that feeling from talking to folk. 17 season tickets in my extended group and all but one have renewed and he is likely to have caved in by end May.
