Rudolf Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 (edited) 1 hour ago, Sir Gio said: 20200 I think that'll be the number available for sale for the game only. Hearts seem to have kept a fairly large amount back to do our own hospitality on 3 packages that has sold out. Good idea by the club as we'll keep any money made over the ticket prices of £30/£35 plus cost of providing food/drink/transport. There will still be hospitality packages available at Hampden for anybody that can't get a ticket through the normal channels.

I know someone who has 19 loyalty points but wasn't able to get to the semi final. I know in that instance the solution is to buy a ticket for the Kilmarnock game but you get the general point. There must be several fans with loyalty points which weren't able to go to the semi final who should get a chance before any general sale.

Calebs Grandad Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I had 3 semi final tickets which entitles me to 3 cup final tickets. Ticket office needed names and id number for whoever I was allocating the other 2 tickets too. Due to others using hospitality I actually have 1 unallocated ticket from semi final now. If it’s allowed I’d happily allocate it to anyone who is going to struggle for a final ticket. I’d need their name, ticketing id number and postcode. Emails must be sent to ticket office by 16.00 tomorrow. If it’s not allowed apologies but if it is then I will allocate it to first person replying who is interested.

Can imagine there are quite a few disappointed youngsters who are not being allowed to attend and Dad is using Juniors account to take his mate for a boozy day out ? Don't think children's tickets should be allowed to be upgraded to adult as people could buy child's ST in order to gain extra tickets for big games. If it is a child's account only a child ticket should be issued imo. Expecting pelters from indignant Dad's but if you think about it is open to abuse.

scott herbertson Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I had 4 tickets for the semi (none used) all under my name and none of the people going (my wife and our two teenagers) have an account/ membership with Hearts. Would think there’s quite a few of the sem tickets which would have been in the ‘family day’ out scenario like this and therefore not eligible for final tickets. Hence I’d guess there will be plenty available for public sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have anywhere near the demand for tickets for anyone to have to go to such desperate lengths. Even if we did that person would be paying an extra £50-100 towards the club to guarantee an extra brief and presumably a child would use the seat for part of the season anyway? I think preventing tickets being upgraded is a restrictive idea. Many parents will have a season ticket with a couple of kids aged say 5-10. They are perfectly happy to take them to a Saturday 3pm KO against Kilmarnock but not a 7.45pm Wednesday night game against Celtic. Those seats either go to waste or they can be upgraded to adult tickets, which maximises both the 'actual' attendance and the revenue for the club.

The Phase 2 sales period is for a restricted class of people, those who attended the semi final but don't have the requisite 20LP. Surely less than 3000 in that category?

I've not missed the point, you think that it's unfair that a parent can allocate their childs ticket to an adult who you deem to be less deserving. My view is that the adult should be allowed the freedom to allocate to their child or their friend or another family member as they choose, considering an adult with two children, both with season tickets, puts an extra 50% into the club that extra option is fair enough. The adult could choose to allocate his ticket to another adult, a level of flexibility is important. A situation where a child can give up their final ticket to their aged grandpa for example is in keeping with the family ethos of our club.
