Jambof3tornado Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Considering its still not guaranteed how many can attend 9k is far more than I thought, especially if it doesnt include the £25 deferral option, which it may or may not do.

Jambo-Fox Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 I have a question regarding this; If there are restrictions how will the Club decide which Season Ticket holders get into Tynecastle? The Club will carry out a ballot of season ticket holders for each game. The ballot will be open to all season ticket holders, via an opt-in application system managed through your online ticketing account. A ballot will run for each home game with logic applied to ensure each season ticket holder has the chance to attend a match. The ‘weighted’ ballot system has been created with Ticketmaster such that if you are unsuccessful in the first ballot, you will be more likely to be successful in the second and so on. The objective is to give every season ticket holder the fairest chance to attend matches while restrictions are in place. Those who are not successful will be able to stream the matches. Q. I never entered the League Cup ticket ballot. Does this mean that I will not be able stream the cup matches? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks - whilst all the ST Q&A make sense individually when cross referred they slightly contradict each other ambiguously. Also I don’t use my ST for many games, if however I only apply for say vs Hibs it reads that I’d be prioritised (as in have a better chance of getting entry) in any ballot ahead of those that have been successful in previous ballots. This doesn’t seem fair on those who go to every game! However it also reads that an opt in for entry to every league game (by ballot) is required - which again doesn’t seem fair ie somebody like me would opt in (only so I could get entry to games I could attend) and if successful for some games I could not attend I’d deprive somebody else of being able to attend. I hope this all turns out to be hypothetical and full attendance is allowed for all games! Edited July 10, 2021 by Jambo-Fox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the concern is less about those who are buying the new season tickets, but the potential impact on those who are renewing. Each new ticket sold makes it less likely that existing season ticket holders are sucesful in any ballot. That seems fair, especially as we all got rubbish return on our season ticket price last year. I'd like to think they will sell new season tickets that cover the period from the ground fully opening until the end of the season. They could even allow new customers to pay the £25 to hold a seat in the same way existing ST holders have been able to. Hopefully for both those supporters and the club that will be from the second home game of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
