The reality is there most likely won't be football played in Scotland until near the end of the year despite what the associations are saying. Frank it's yourself who needs to do research. As a pointer focus on outdoor transmission. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I was spot on. Modern stadia like Tynecastle have many enclosed spaces with seats and rows tightly packed together, with entry from turnstyles which are enclosed with many touch surfaces, have packed entry and exit points where social distancing is impossible, a concourse that is packed at half time and full time, enclosed toilet areas that are rammed before kick off, half time, and full time with many touch surfaces, queues at catering areas were massive and back-to-back before the pandemic etc. Please elaborate as to how social distancing can be overcome in a packed stadium?

willie wallace Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 I was going to wait to see what happened before renewing but the talk of the possibility of reduced capacity got me a wee bit worried. So bit the bullet and got my ticket although the thought of playing in the championship still holds no appeal for me whatsoever. Hopefully Ann Budge can throw a "Hail Mary" in the last minute.😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guarantee that each ticket will get you entry to as many games as you are entitled to, or your money back will also see the numbers jump. By the start of next week (after pay day) we will likely be on about 7-8k imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwidoug Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 A lot of this covid business seems to hinge on a vaccine and I'm just wondering whether our great friends from leith might come to the fore in this regard. I'm led to believe that they are no strangers to syringes. That suggests to me that vaccination issues are right up their alley. Another first for the green machine? A vaccination to save the world direct from the Giro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Boy Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 On Hibs, it’s also worth remembering that it is not a myth about the number of their adult season ticket holders who have kids tickets. Also a lot of freebies given to local schools etc. Even in the season’s where their ‘sales’ have been comparable to ours, their actual income from tickets has not reflected this.

I work with a guy who is late 50s but gets a concession (senior) Hibs season ticket. He's never been asked for proof of age. He said his Hobo mate does exact same.

Size of access points would dictate not space available between seats. Add in the 2 govs would have to raise the mass gathering ban, that started at 500 I think, so that would probably be the lifting entry point.

PapaShango Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Worth noting Hibs have had season tickets on sale longer than us and know which division they will be playing in.

the sub goalie Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Just renewed our 3, was going to take advantage of the 50% now and the balance in December but ended up just paying outright. My daughter is immunosuppressed so the likelihood is we won't be able to attend until there is a vaccination, even if they do open up with social distancing. Should that be the case, I will email the ticket office and they can hopefully make our tickets available to Big Hearts until we are back.
