My time is limited this time, especially if Celtic manage to take us to penalties. The latest train I can catch towards home from Queen Street is 7pm, so I'm going to play safe and walk via Cathcart Rd and Gorbals Street. Should only take about 40 minutes, I just hope any locals I come across are friendly. I wouldn’t walk through the Gorbals if you’re wearing colours.

luckydug Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Wonder if the club will persist with the one ticket policy or if they will just punt the rest of the tickets to high LP holders.

gov Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Not a usual dot counter but this is a dot count thread and had a bit of time this morning....this is tickets available that i can see being available 19 - A6 8 - A7 8 - B1 206 - B2 75 - B3 14 - B4 3 - B5 13 - B6 Total 346 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put them back on sale for 20LP holders and above just to shift the remaining tickets (no I don’t qualify but would hate to think there will be any unwashed in our end).

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Difficult to suggest otherwise that these last 300 tickets are heading anywhere else other than non Hearts fans. Even someone with 20 LP is surely only handing on to a non Hearts pal. 1 LP. Perhaps tomorrow they should close this and distribute via Big Hearts. Painful conclusion to the sales.

Everyone deserving of a ticket will have one by now and it’s not like there’s a few thousand left. People who will miss out will be ones like my daughter who attended the semi but doesn’t have her own account and purchase history. Unfortunately Hearts were strict about not allowing accounts to be created retrospectively which tbh I completely understand. In an ideal world I’d be able to get her one but in all honesty there are far bigger Jambos out there. Was kind of hoping she would get the bug as she loved everything about the semi.

Why would Hearts fans give tickets to Celtic fans ? It's only dragged out because of the need to satisfy all the categories which they have done with accuracy. There will be loads of people with friends and relatives who would go for the day out. The usual cup final types if you like. Would folk prefer it if the club just allowed a free for all and regulars missed out because of people buying loads of tickets to give to Mums,Dad's and aunties. These folk are very welcome when supply isn't an issue but it was on this occasion so the club had to be strict even though it made it look as sales were dragging on. I bet that if we got a further allocation we would sell them no bother by letting folk buy as many as they like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericb Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Its a shortage of supply, not demand. If by some miracle they suddenly had another 5K and they announced any +20 point holder could buy another 2, they would be gone in a day. But there are less than 300 left, which I sggest at some point will be offered to +20 point holders first come first served.

N Lincs had a good example of how a real new Hearts fan may not have got one. It just appeared to me that it would now be difficult to shift them without changing the criteria, meaning there was as much chance as anyone getting one of the final 300 than a proper fan. Hard to explain admittedly for me I'm sure they would have been sold well over a week past, but for the strict criteria, the extremely low amount left then become difficult to distribute. I'm finding it hard to believe there are still people buying them who have waited so long. Love to hear a story or 2. Cos I'm nosey! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
