DETTY29 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 5 minutes ago, Mikey1874 said: What is 'new' about the confirmation of close contact position? Hopes had been high that track and trace rules regarding the contacts of a positive case would be removed, allowing teams to switch to a scheme of training with players who return negative lateral flows. So the clubs thought track and trace rules would be removed - for them. Did no-one watch the news? Unless it's just badly worded and the club's feel football should just take same public risks. Fine, if a game is postponed due to an outbreak in your club, then 1% of annual turnover monetary fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe another 1.5, 2K on a general sale ? Still leaves a few thousand for walk up. That’s if they don’t give the sheep too many, or any !

At a guess they will be hoping that wverowho took up the £25 option now choose to go for the season ticket they have reserved, then they will see if anyone who isn't a current season ticket holder wants the opportunity (I for one want to get my 6 year old his first ticket) before they offer a walk up type sale.

Texaco Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 1 hour ago, gnasher75 said: Not impossible to organise this surely. The £25 folks have already got an allocated seat so if they renew at this point, fine. A general sale of season tickets can happen at the same time as a sale of match tickets for the Aberdeen game. If someone happens to want a season ticket in a seat that has been sold for the Aberdeen game, they can still buy it and will simply get a ticket somewhere else for that game. The Saturday/Sunday thing is probably the main issue but it can easily be explained it could be either and those who can do either can get on with buying their ticket or season ticket now. Seems quite simple to me general sale of season tickets and sale of home match tickets only in Roseburn section H & J at same time. That should buy some time see what demand is for both. Trying to attract as many season tickets by leaving 'good' seats availble as long as posiblle would be my main priority over match day tickets but still maintain avalible of both.

Saint Jambo Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 From Hearts Facebook Quote Season Tickets are now on general sale, starting with our next home game against Aberdeen on August 21st when Tynecastle finally returns to capacity! Info bit.ly/3s6t8Iu Match tickets for the fixture vs Aberdeen on August 21st will go on sale towards the middle of next week. Not sure why people are still struggling with the logic of footballers physical distancing and using the 'red zone'. If a player goes out to a restaurant, doesn't physically distance and catches covid that is only one player self-isolating. However, if they'd sat on the subs bench with no physical distancing then everyone else on the subs bench is likely to be identified as a close contact and have to self-isolate which by the time players have come on/off could be as many as 10 players. Given the age of footballers some of them are unlikely to have had both jabs at least two weeks ago so won't be able to use the new take a PCR test to end self-isolation. Plus because they are close contacts they may well actually have infected other players so those players will test positive and have to self-isolate as well. This is likely to lead to games being postponed. The SFA (not Government) have decided to keep in place the 'red zone' protocols to minimise the risk of needing to postpone games. The most likely reason to drop this requirement is if the levels of infection in the population drop significantly and/or we reach the point that all players have had both doses of the vaccine at least two weeks ago.

Gorgie_Rules Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Assuming Aberdeen get tickets, allowing for segregation and the red zone we should have about 19,000 capacity. Think we have sold 10,500 STs so far with hopefully a few more thousand to sell before the Aberdeen general sale next week. If Aberdeen get their usual 2 or 2 and a half sections of the Roseburn i think we could get close to selling this one out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graygo Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 6 hours ago, gnasher75 said: So is this a Government rule or JRG guideline or a Hearts policy? As far as I understand it, if someone tests positive, then close contacts only self isolate until they get a PCR test which presumably the club could organise very quickly. Not really getting why players and staff are being treated differently from everyone else in the stadium. Surely if it's safe for fans, it's safe for players. Not sure anyone has said it's safe for fans. Possibly as good as it'll get right enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCR Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 IIRC it’s in the rules there has to be an away allocation for league games under normal circumstances because David Murray wanted to do away with it at one point and the SFA said no. I don’t know if you could make an exception for current circumstances but unless it’s certain we could sell those two sections it doesn’t make sense not to give them to the away team.
