I think that's reasonable. Sales will hold around 13.5-14k. Even I predicted that sales may be down at least 10% this season, but take up has been quite impressive thus far. FYI, @Hercules If I were still living in Edinburgh I would be among those ST holders, just as I was for around 16 years before I left. I'd be a ST holder just like the majority of overseas Hearts fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknown user Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 1 hour ago, Enzo Chiefo said: They went down last year, as predicted. How did all the predictions on here go last season: 1st then 2nd, at least 3rd, 4th and the Cup, European qualification., defo ahead of Hibs. Where did we finish....6th again. Pesky things are facts. That wasn't what you predicted. "I think we will struggle to amass10k by August with probably about 8.5 or 9 after the renewal period" Then when we went flying past that you made another prediction and claimed to be close.

bn jambo Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Season ticket sales are going well, I'd like to think that although beat in both the league cup semi and Scottish cup final, that some of the lapsed support who attended either both or one of these matches got the buzz again and will sign up for season tickets this season, It may even make up for the "i'm not going back till Levein is gone" Crowd.

gov Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Been to a fair few games this season racking up 23 points which is a high for me. so decided to get a season ticket for the first time (finances are slightly better these days) never been so excited for a new season and the buzz from the cup final really made my choice for me! been to cup finals but the 5/10 minutes after hearts scored was the best feeling i have had watching hearts (2012 was amazing but the last 20 minutes just dragged) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo83 Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 (edited) Why, when viewing seats on the eticketing site are you only advised of the Section and Row when you hover on a seat and not the seat number??? Missed the renewal deadline as my head was elsewhere, on a Stag Do, so trying to select specific seats yet can't see the seat numbers - Not ideal.

I wonder if anyone has an idea of the level of sales we can expect between now and the start of the season ? I'm thinking about like for like examples from previous seasons. 2018/19 - we sold 10,000 by the end of the renewal period (2 May), then 735 over the first three days of the general sale. It had reached 12,700 by 27 July and 13,000 a week later (3 August), the start of the league season(?) 2017/18 was unusual because of the new stand. The club announced 10,500 at the end of the first renewal period (6 June). There was a second renewal period for those in the old stand who wanted to move elsewhere, which took the renewals to a little over 11,000. Following the start of the general sale (16 June) we hit the 13,000 mark within two weeks (30 June), suggesting that there was a latent demand for seats in the new stand and that a number of fans had held off to see what seats would be available. It took a further four weeks to reach 13,500 (27 July). 2016-17 12,500 sold by the end of the renewal period (6 June), 13,500 was reached in the first week of the general sale (13 June), which also marked the end on phase 1 pricing (subsequently extended). I only recorded little over 200 further sales to the closing date for ST sales (22 July). The pattern is therefore that we see the quickest sales in the first week after the start of the general sale, but drops to a trickle thereafter, with a little pick up just before the end of the sales period..

You can fill these figures in your spreadsheet if you so wish. Tickets remaining 6/6 3am:4553 Available SOLD 11,119 Thanks for doing that. I've added it to my spreadsheet. It provides confirmation that my initial counts had no glaring errors in them, e.g dropping 100 somewhere along the line. The numbers are in line with the normal sales pattern at the start of the general sale period. I'd expect that the rate will drop off next week. There are plenty good and adjacent seats available in all areas and no 2nd phase pricing, therefore little urgency for anyone who intends buying a ST to do so now. I think that it will take a few decent signings and a good start to the League cup campaign to provide the impetus to get to last season's numbers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhoenixHearts Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I've had to opt for buying my season ticket on 4 month finance this season. Just signed my agreement with Premium Credit today. Has anyone else done this yet, and have you received your card yet/how long did it take? I'd assume there's a bit of a backlog with finance ST as it took quite a while to get a new option set up after Zebra. Cheers. Also worth mentioning I left it too late to renew my section S row 4 seat and somebody bought it. Now we're in Q row 6, toward the half. Think that might be pretty much behind the home dugout, but I'm not sure. Can anybody in Q say whether they are good seats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
