Why are the Premium and Platinum Option 2s cheaper than other groups?

 

Asking for a friend, as we are fotunate enough to go for Option 3.

 

More credit carried forward from last year.

 

'The Alternative Value offering relating to Streaming, equated 2 streamed games to 1 game already paid for through the Platinum Season Ticket. This therefore meant a more substantial credit value was carried forward.'

All seems reasonably straighforward  and fair. Either option 1 or 2 for me. No way am I shelling out full whack on account of the utter cack handed piss poor shite served up by Hearts TV last year and if thats an option this year then no way am I paying full whack for it again.

 

Option 1 though, the Hearts Pass. I wonder if having that would entitle you to be in the ballot should crowds be limited or if you'd need to upgrade to the full ST?

 

200 sheets to renew my Platinum though. Cant argue with that.

 

 

That is ****in soul destroying. Probably the worst version of the Hearts sing I've ever heard. How anyone could take a bouncy, rousing call to arms and turn it into a wailing, warbling dirge escapes me.

 

If I was swithering what to do then that really wouldnt convince me to renew in the slightest.

The shite served up by Hearts TV just reflected the shite served up by Hearts "football department". Just glad I didn't pay hundreds more to see it in person.

I think likely because they think not many people who renew will take that offer, and that those who miss that window will end up with a discount anyway.

I suspect option 3 may be the most popular. But the very narrow window won't help.

It really didnt.

 

The shite served up on the pitch just sort of compounded it though.

Cheers.  Saved me posting that query.  Was wondering why option 2 is £200 and 3 is £450 for the same seat.

 

It is either 2 or 3 for me.

Did you contact the club to say you did not want to stream games. I may be wrong but im sure you had to tell them if you wanted to defer. If you didnt do anything then it be option 1 ,2 or 3 . 

Yeah I did thanks

I wasn't expecting Sky Sports production standards. It did the job for me and wasn't too far off BBC Scotland production standards. Not that that is a great compliment.

We pay tax on season ticket cash yeah. Not be better taking discount and paying the difference to Foh in a one off payment if you intend to pay full price.

It was a fair way off being bbc Scotland standard. Don’t get me wrong, it’s probably fine for foreign viewers paying 30 a month or whatever but, given the fact it represented our season tickets it was piss poor. Minimum effort to improve it that I noticed.

Think you will be surprised by how many opt for option 3. Think it will be a significant number.

That was difficult watching the video I broke down the first time I watched it and broke down again when I played it to my wife.She dosent go to the games as often as me but it affected her the same.I was always going to offer full price for my season ticket but watching that has made me even more sure to buy it.

So if I paid full cost last year, and I'm gold I think, and watched most home games I think am I paying full price again or in line for a discount?

But what about those who take kids to the game, do they go into a ballot as a pair/group?

No idea but I’d imagine they go in together because you need an adult to buy an u13 season ticket.

I thought they might have an option to lump families together for the ballot. Husbands/wives, or in our case mine and juniors(hes 24 but we travel together from outwith Edinburgh for matches).

 

I want to get back into the ground but only if I can get in with my son.

You'll get a discount this season or if you wish to pay full price, you can.

I'm calling it now, there will be at least 5k renewals in the first 10 days and the club will extend the window due to demand.

Thats why Jimmy Carrs not a jambo.....

 

Interesting seeing the responses on here. Seems universally to be getting praise from fans on here been a while since that happened. I mean obvs we have people who think one is sticking the knife into the club but still was nice of the club to offer the option for those and such as those to condemn people for using (assuming anyone does - you know people of ill health , anxious about crowds , struggling financially but want to know they wont lose their seat if they do have the chance to get back to work and back to the football) 

 

Just need them to spend that cash on Sturridge , Dunne , Wilshire and statues of Nelms and Doncaster embracing that we get to destroy each and every game in new and more impressive ways.... I vote we start  with a space x launch of one that then explodes leaving the words “this is our city ya ****ing green goblins” and the Hearts badge in the air for a few hours

Bit Harsh, 

Being skint for whatever reason doesn't make you less of a Hearts fan, neither does directing limited funds to your rent, family or food. 

 

 

Well said.  I hope the club sells as many season tickets as possible, but some might not be able to because money being tight because of the pandemic.  It's not just clubs that are struggling, families are feeling it as well.

So if I’m understanding it correctly (as it’s somewhat convoluted at first);

 

- First window is for those only wanting to pay FULL price (Option 3)

- Second window those who want to take Options 1 or 2 opens

- Option 1 are for those unsure about games having fans attend or wish to hold back paying full price for now (for whichever reason) so they in effect reserve their seat for £25 and when full stadiums are allowed they can buy the rest of the games pro rata depending how many left later on

- Option 2 is eligible for those who didn’t purposely tell the club they want to defer their ticket from last season, so even if have streamed games through Hearts TV last season they’re getting a discounted rate for this season

- I’m assuming Option 3 will be an option available at any point (for those who want to pay it, but may not have the funds ready until after the 12th)

 

Have I got it about right?

 

Is there any circumstances in which anyone renewing HAS to pay full price? I know new ST holders will. But from my understanding of it the club are asking people to pay full price if they want, but if they don’t they have discounted rate or the £25 reservation (effectively) option or if people purposely deferred last year then they don’t have to pay anything.

 

If I’m understanding it right, and technically no one renewing their ticket HAS to pay full price, then that’s excellent from the club.

Not quite sure re final date for option 3. At 1 part it says 10th june. At another part it says option 2 and 3 run until July.

I want to buy usual 2 but as late as possible as a small protest on crap football/Neilson.

That’s where I’m unsure. As we may plump for full price but we’d have to wait a bit to gather the money, so if we miss the 10th, does that mean full price no longer an option? I wouldn’t imagine so, surely?

Perhaps tbf. I personally was going to go for option 3 but recent circumstances mean I'm likely going to take option 2 now. If things are a bit better down the line I'll make up for it in FOH donations.

I’ve never been premium, what is the difference to platinum? 

 

You get the sun in your eyes, wind blowing the rain in or a gale in your face.If its colder you can enjoy icy blasts, snow and hail.

 

But you do get a little more legroom.

 

Stick to Platinum in the Wheatfield.

Just watched it, I may have shed a tear!  I'm stuck in France on a low income, can't come back to visit family and friends, just wish I could do more for the famous!  So proud of Hearts fans everywhere.

Hearts have done well here with the options.

 

On the topic of Murrayfield again - it would allow Hearts to potentially sell more STs than they would've as everyone being able to go to every game (or a significantly higher chance they could). Tynecastle means a ballot which is less appealing and might see more taking up option 1. Of course hopefully we'll be back to normal soon enough and we can all be at Tynecastle but until then...

 

Murrayfield! Murrayfield! :ninja:

Maybe they have better to come before the season tickets actually go on sale.??
