I'm sure the rules don't go that far about fairness to both sets of fans but maybe we would also have to give Rangers fans £10 vouchers to spend in Hearts Clubstore, or Ibrox equivalent? Or a £10 Sports Direct voucher to both sets of fans. Just for shits and giggles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudolf Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) 10 hours ago, Werner Herzog said: If they really needed us, why not make it part of the season ticket? I can't justify spending 30 quid to watch a team who have repeatedly let me down, for a fixture in a competition that will mean nothing if we get relegated. So we give the away team 50% of the gate receipts that would include the season ticket holders at the average match ticket price. If you assume £25 a pop then that's £325,000/2 = £162,500 to the away team and £0 to us. If we also assume a full house that's another 6,000 at £25 = £150,000/2 = £75,000 to the away team and £75,000 to us. So a home tie could mean us giving £237,500 to the away team. Maybe that's the reason clubs don't do it anymore. Edited February 26, 2020 by Rudolf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being the case there is no possibility of giving any away side anything like that kind of money.

GorgieRules22 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Shocking uptake in tickets. I don’t buy this shite that it’s not an important game because of we’re we are in the league. It’s a quarter final of the Scottish Cup, a chance to get to Hampden. An empty home end gives Rangers an advantage so if you can go but are just choosing not to it’s pretty piss poor from a supporter for me.

Not too sure about thinking it's the kick off time that's the problem. 7.20 on a Saturday evening, away to Falkirk, not a problem. Takes out almost all of a Saturday night, but tickets were in big demand, with arguments about the threshold of qualifying loyalty points from some who didn't buy quickly enough. Far more likely to be a mix of the team's recent performance and the ticket price. There's a lot of Hearts fans who can't take the thought of losing at home to Rangers, Celtic and Hibs, and being there to see and hear it. Paying a high ticket price just finishes any thought of going. I will also be there. If we win, it will be similar feeling to beating Celtic at Hampden in 2012. Another game that many chose to miss. There will be some who are working or can't afford it. That can't be helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A maximum of 1,000 ST holders are allowed. The balance is split 50/50. It would be impossible for clubs to budget for ST’s that include cup games.

The supporters have gone over and above for this team and gross mismanagement of the on field affairs have let us down big time. Massive change needed top to bottom.
