Bob Loblaw Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Checked again and rather than just one ticket showing all 4 I applied for are now there. One of the tickets is the row in front and at completely the opposite end of the section. Kind of defeats the purpose in applying together! But I'm delighted to have got one.

What an absolute dog's dinner of an explanation. No doubt the same old posters will be along to say that this proves it is all the Council's and Government's fault. We've literally got Networks on etickets which could have been used as a proxy for the number of groups they might expect. As you say, awful explanation.

But you’re the one suggesting that Edinburgh Council is just towing the party line but ignoring the fact that other SNP councils are allowing bigger crowds (therefore, presumably not towing the party line). I realise that doesn’t fit in with your with your political agenda and you’d much rather have a SNP bash but it would be good to know the facts, hopefully either the council or the club can confirm this.

To be honest that’s a fair comment but why not direct in the correct direction rather than another stick to beat the club with ? As things stand all Edinburgh clubs are being treated roughly the same. All 3 clubs appear to be using different ticketing systems but the outcome capacity percentage wise is roughly the same. Other clubs out with Edinburgh councils control appear to be getting bigger percentage of capacity allowed. I’m not saying it isn’t shit not getting a ticket but With all that information are we really sitting here saying it’s all Budges fault ?

I wouldn't be surprised if Hibs do get a larger capacity only a couple of days from the formal removal of legal social distancing. Why the council wouldn't go Hibs 4.7k - check Hearts 6.5k - check Hibs 9.5k - check Hearts 13k - check. Or whatever order the games are as long as there is sufficient time between each game to do a review. However, as I put up earlier this morning Hibs asked their fans to do more than we have (times allocated for entry and exit, ID required). Indeed, unless more info comes out from Hearts it looks like on a like for like basis at our 4.5k and their 4.7k we aren't asking from our fans what Hibs were.

If Edinburgh Council are currently operating a policy of only around 23% of capacity, surely an official reply from the club would point this out rather than imply we could get more if we had better IT resources? Did they say more would get in or just that people could sit in bigger groups? Presumably with more empty spaces. Looks to me like even though we're limited to groups of 4 the total number of available seats would be the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comradejambo Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) Disappointed not to get a ticket. Understand that some folk were not going to be lucky. In light of numbers granted elsewhere however, I would like some transparency from the club into how the process has been drawn up. There should have been significant discussion across all clubs, inclusive of councils and we find ourselves in a situation where percentage wise , we have the lowest allocation out of all clubs. Something doesn’t sit right here! At least by getting some transparency I can direct my anger towards the council.
