Be lucky if there is over 15,000 at this. Poor pricing. I suppose the lack of ticket sales in the Hearts support will be offset by the Huns bringing 3,500 orcs.

jamboiain13 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 12 hours ago, Saint Jambo said: You do realise £30 is cheaper than any tickets for our games against Rangers. It's a quarter final and it's still cheaper than a run of the mill league game against the same opposition. There has been lots to complain about at Hearts this season. I don't think our pricing policy for cup games is on the list. totally agree. Cup pricing in recent years has been very acceptable. Gone are the days when cup games were included in your Season Book but excellent pricing for league cup group matches, home cup ties against lower league opposition yet people are complaining (which is their right) about a major cup quarter final against one of the bigger Premiership teams even although it is still priced lower than an equivalent league game. Oh well, I'll still go, might even go to Easter Road the following Tuesday despite most probably being charged at least £2 or £4 more for the pleasure of standing at the back of their breeze block, meccano set Frankenstein stand!

I just thought that the opposite was the case, with a value calculated for any season ticket admissions. That's why the smaller clubs have always looked forwards to the bonanza of an away tie at a big club - they get a share of that club's supporters' receipts too. After the home club has subtracted operating expenses of course. I hope that someone comes along to put us right one way or another.

It's also a gamble. The club has no idea how many home Scottish Cup and League Cup games they will have. However, they will still have operating expenses for those games. Also, if they end up playing teams like Gala Fairydean (no disrespect to them, for some reason they were the first to spring to mind) then there's no way that they will meet those operating expenses and the payment to the SFA from the money obtained from the opposition supporters and their own non season-ticket supporters attending the match. It's very difficult to run a club on such uncertainty, especially when trying to balance the budget. In saying that however, the actual cost that the clubs decide the tickets will be is a different kettle of fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Elwood P Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Anyone with half a brain will know this has been driven by Rangers. They are always charged £30 + to sit in the Roseburn.

willie wallace Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 1 hour ago, Saughton Jambo said: Last time I checked then chocolate buttons wasn’t a currency. Nor is Monopoly money. If we want to be 3rd team in Scotland every year then we need quality players in and they don’t come cheaply. We now have a manager with an ethos and a style that he wants to play. Imo the players aren’t good enough to play yet he is stuck with them and is trying to make the best of a bad bunch. At least he is at training every day ‘coaching’ these players. A total rebuild is required. Jurgen Klopp was given time and resources to transform Liverpool from the Brenda Rogers, to world champions. Now we have idiots calling for the managers head already. Does anyone realise what this would cost to get rid of him and his team after 4 months? Are people really so stupid? The same people calling for his head are the same ones who refuse to pay a small hike in ticket revenue. Probably take sandwiches to Tynecastle to save paying into the kiosk revenue. Budge has done amazing to bring everything back under one house and to maximise catering and hospitality. She is not a stupid woman. If I were her I’d be selling tickets in block release to all parts of the ground. Like a cup final scenario. Any unsold tickets would be given to the opposition like the league cup semi final, and a line of stewards and police could form a segregated area. Why should the club miss out on much needed revenue to cater for the minority of pant wetters? If you don’t like it then don’t go. Watch it on tv and sell the unsold tickets to the Hun.
