Season ticket holders - what is your preferred option for streamed games?

[Paolo]

Id like to see them do something for the supporters that have bought multiple season tickets per household first and foremost. Sure they could come up with something. I quite like bits of your suggestion there. I still think 6 free tickets a season for Season ticket holders for the next three seasons would be a good idea too.

That would be good too.  Happy for it to be Category B games too, since that is what we were expecting.   We rarely have genuine sell outs for them, so it would be little to no cost, and if they buy merchandise and food, and enjoy themselves and come back, it could work out an earner for us.

Oh I’m sorry... I didn’t realise that facts were unwelcome on the thread. I’ll run it by an Uber-poster like yourself first, next time. Are no facts allowed, or is it just the ones that you are uncomfortable with? 

 

We'll agree you wont really answer why you felt the need to bring it up and move on then shall we?

We’ll agree on nothing, I expect. You don’t like facts that don’t fit your opinions.

I'm with you on that one, for sure. Minimal direct impact on income; spreads out the 'payback, and the opportunity for ST holders to be magnaminous to freinds & family. Would have to figure out a sensible way to 'cash-in' said 'free' tickets to deal with the inevitable over-subscription for near sell-out games though.

We could cut the away attendance to mitigate the over-subscription, maybe? Dunno, maybe something like this but tweaked a little. Just seems like a good way of averting too much ill-feeling or financial havoc.

Regardless of reason or circumstance, if their is demand, we should always cut away allocation. 
 

The only exception is Hibs.  I am happy for them to get the full stand. They will fill it, so plenty arseholes to mock.

I havent argued with your fact, havent disputed it or denied it. That is perfectly clear for anyone to see.

 

Whats is less clear, and very simple to clear up, is why you would feel the need to bring it up if not to make people feel guilty.

 

But we'll just agree you wont do that.

There you go again. You seem to be under the illusion that this is some kind of televised saga with an audience.

 

Ill post whatever facts I want mate, whether it meets the approval of an uber-poster like yourself or not. Im sorry if that gets in the way of the little refund circle jerk you were revelling in, but that’s tough.  

[wattie exploited]

 so we all watch the same stream but some people will have paid at least £150 more than the next persons  ,to watch the same thing what a joke ,piss take it seems ,

 ok if you thought you would be getting the games rolled over to next season and if they had told you all of this upfront then there wouldn't be a problem the problem is is the way they have went about it  ,It just looks like they pardon the pun exploiting this anyway I think they need to come up with something a bit fairer as I don't think paying £900 to watch a streamed  game is right that works out at £70 a game for my son and myself must be the dearest in Scotland ,Its not the money its the way hearts have went about this so far

First paragraph I agree with completely. Your second one, I’m undecided. If we could guarantee selling to more Hearts fans, I’d probably slash theirs too.

You take exception to facts that don’t fit your agenda. To the point where you feel the need to bypass the quote function and instead paraphrase. 
 

Im making folk feel guilty? What by posting stone cold facts? ****ing hell, never realised I was so powerful.

 

Here’s another fact then... you are a tedious bore, who tries to make people feel guilty for doing a bit extra to try and support the club, by branding them “ubers”.

No, you took exception to the fact being posted. I’m guessing that’s because it was a bit inconvenient when you were enjoying a good bit of club bashing. Never mind, you could just prattle on about ubers instead. You’re good at that.

No exception taken.

 

Just a simple question posed.

 

You're not going to answer though.

 

Its cool.

You did take exception, you said that posting facts was “pretty low”, and paraphrased the fact in order to make it fit your snide remark. That’s what started the whole boring episode. You must have forgotten. Never mind though, it’s cool.
 

 

[credit card]

OK 3 days to go how do we actually log on to see Saturday's friendly?

 

Three pages of at times embarrassing whinging. For me the multiple households is the only issue that needs sorted (I'm not in that category) but my opinion is that's it is not fair. 

 

I'm pleased to be able to see the games on TV. Miffed about the cost, it isn't from section E but at least I'm helping the club I love. HHGH

someone paying 450 quid gets exactly the same as someone paying 300 quid that ain't right either. totally agree with this point they need to fix this out our gives some of us the difference back

That is a fair point.

I saw a quote on social media.  If Jet2 sold you a holiday for two weeks in Ibiza then cancelled the flights but sent you videos of the beaches of Ibiza you'd be quite rightly upset and probably want your money back.  This analargy fits what Hearts have done

Away and don't talk utter pish.

If they’d done this last season, then a “behind the sofa” angle would have been popular.

Lucky I'm no longer in the auld main stand, they'd have sent a cardboard pillar in the post to cellotape in the middle of my TV or worse, the crazy corner, someone would come to the house, piss in the corner and make you stand.

I thought so, but tbf it is a valid point. 

Probably the most just and valid one yet. 

 

The solution is give the partial refund to the folk that bought the most expensive tickets or charge folk on the lower ones.

How dare you speak about “the old lady” like that. 😐

[Section Q]

I think that how the club handles/rewards those who bought a season ticket will have a huge bearing on how many briefs they shift next season. I also still expect some clubs to go bust when the financial impact hits them at the end of subsidised income/wages.

I am happy for streamed games to count but I am the only person in my household with a ST.

 

I believe every household with more than 1 ST should get some sort of discount/ incentive for next season

[SectionFJambo]

The issue the club now have is it's increasingly looking like even in Spring 2021 they may not be able to fully fill a stadium. After changing the goalposts this year how many fans are renewing if there is doubt? The trust is gone.

 

There will of course be the few thousand who will do so regardless however the clubs handling of this will inevitably mean the few thousand on the fence won't be renewed.

Next season I imagine they will be clearer in their messaging but there’s no guarantee that full stadiums will be possible in season 21/22 either which will be a challenge for all clubs.

I'm a damn sight more clever than you will ever be my friend.

Your analogy was complete nonsense and worthy of a 10 year old.

 

A season ticket is to watch 18 games of football, Hearts are now giving all the ST holders the ability to watch the scheduled 14 games by stream.

 

Some of these will end up on BBC free to air, Hearts should consider these games as not "exclusive" to  Hearts TV and possibly make forward.

Or should they? pre-Covid, games are live on TV, it's then up to the supporter whether they attend the game or not.

 

If your not happy, ask for a refund, to me it's that simple.

If you do, don't write silly analogies of Jet2  sending you a video of a beach, you'll just make an arse of yourself...
