Could be a real ‘money-spinner’ with 49,000 at £30 a seat. Together with tv money we could take in about £500-600k for that game. Probably why we won’t rest any players on Saturday. It’s a circa £500k payout for avoiding defeat. What I dont is whether replay orices are also agreed. Last year Killie and Rangers home and away were £27 for both games. Aberdeen was £26 in 3 stands, £22 Merkland. £27 replay. Would be interesting what Rangwrs propose and Hearts agree in terms if replay. Ill need to check our 2 Partick games. Edit -They charged £20, we charged £15. But again both clubs must agree. Edited February 27, 2020 by DETTY29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, if the rumours are true and Rangers held out for the £35 whilst we wanted it lower then Budge should just suggest £35 for a replay and stick to her guns. She could give our fans that go an unusually high number of lp’s as compensation. Only 800 of them in any case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the rules we are entitled to 20% of the capacity or whatever we can sell up to that limit. Again though Rangers would be happy to fleece their own fans as they know they would get it.

Yes, but we usually struggle to sell our Ibrox allocation of 800, certainly don’t usually have a lot of unhappy fans. Midweek, £35, probably on tv suggests to me that there wouldn’t be many more than the usual guys wanting to go. There’s only about 40% of our season ticket holders wanting to go to the home game on Sat so I can’t see much demand for a replay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enzo Chiefo Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) The appeal of the Cup, in terms of ticket sales, has definitely waned in recent years . Sunday lunchtimes you can understand but 5.30pm on a Sat isn't the worst KO time. Back in 1985 we had, iirc more than 20k for a QF against Aberdeen at Tynie then followed it up by taking 5k to the replay midweek in Aberdeen, with several hundred locked out, again iirc. Probably a combination of factors nowadays including the quality and attitude of pampered players and the atmosphere which has been sanitised beyond. Sad though.

HMFC86 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I think this season(if not most) we need to take every chance of celebrating we can. We’ve been chronic and I honestly understand why folk aren’t going, but if we win I think people will regret it. I considered not going after the Hamilton game.

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. Rangers would fill Tynie if they given the chance unfortunately too many of our fans are just not interested enough in turning up to support the Hearts. I'm proud to be a Jambo it's a pity so many Hearts season ticket holders are waving the white flag. Come on guys prove me wrong and get along to Tynie on saturday and support your team.

Clubs have to be realistic about what they can sell. Killie might have got 2,000 allocated but how many did they sell. Given that Hearts and Aberdeen both take 800/900 on a regular basis you have to assume that’s roughly how many actually wang to go to these places. I go everywhere except Ibrox and Parkhead, horrible areas, stadia, atmosphere and fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would hope that anyone caught with their reference being used to get away fans tickets would have repercussions. Folk I know are usually trying to help fellow Hearts fans out when they offer their references out for big games they can’t make but need to be careful. And specifically on this game when there’s thousands of tickets available, I find it hard to believe many folk that are Hearts fans don’t have a buying history.
