Dot Count - Hearts v Rangers | 12th December 2021

[JayTeeJnr]

I cant’t see a thread for this so did a quick count when I was looking for tickets.

 

Main: 15

Gorgie: 31

Wheatfield: 77

Roseburn: 603

 

Seats left 726

 

I’ve no idea what that means for tickets sold but hopefully jALBO or one of the other regular counters can help with that.

👍 Nice work @JayTeeJnr

 

On the Friday the week before the St Mirren game, we had over 1,000 left to shift, so we're well ahead of where we need to be to sell out.

Good stuff - it’s going to be a pleasant change seeing the Rangers fans tucked away in just part of the Roseburn

Even better when we see them walking away long before the end 

[leginten]

I was in the Roseburn for the 2-0 game in the first Championship season when we restricted them to a couple of sections. Those *****’ gas was at a peep long before the end. An excellent afternoon.

I know, the hun across the aisle from me bolted as soon as the penalty was awarded.

We won't release an other section to them, K will be used for segregation.

If we don't sell it yes, they won't get more tickets for this game.

[Rogue Daddy]

Think they will keep half of K for segregation and sell off the other half to us🤷‍♂️

[luckydug]

I would think the segregation area will be the same as for the

Dundee Utd game. 

The Rangers have 1000 tickets same as Utd received. 

They will house The Rangers fans in the top tiers of L and M. 

The lower tiers of these two sections will will be kept empty to prevent any kind of naughtiness occurring.

I agree. I think Hearts probably has the most robust segregation policy in British football, and I don't think K will be made available. It's also worth noting that the club removed the front row of H and J for sale for this game too.

 

It is interesting when you see the minimal segregation just this last week at the Merseyside derby and compare that to what Hearts have in place for pretty much every game.

Pretty sure they got lower L but the lower section M was closed or at least half of it, could be wrong but I very much doubt they will allow Rangers fans the bottom of M.

Edited December 4, 2021 by Gorgie_Rules

[Different Class]

If it's the same as United they will get all of L lower and half of M lower. All of section K is segregation. 

 

The banners getting ripped up and hot drinks launched into the Hearts section by Dundee fc fans won't encourage them to reduce segregation for any game, never mind an old firm fixture.

[Doctor FinnBarr]

Plenty folks wanting der Hun seats cut. Step up now and buy tickets.

After the away issues at the Dundee game, plus the fact rangers fans will be seething that they got their ticket allocation cut, I can easily see a whole section being used for segregation.

Down to around 590 now. So based on @JayTeeJnr count on Friday evening, 130-140 shifted on Saturday.

I think even allowing for seats left at this stage, it was merited opening up more seats for Jambos and long may it continue

100 a day for a sell out. A convincing performance and win today would probably ensure a sellout.

2 bought just now. Will be looking for somewhere that's open at 9am for a pre match Guinness. Normally Platform 5 for a wee bite and pint pre match but no sure if that will be an option?

The issue will be how many ST holders, especially those with young families and those who need to travel long distances stay away.  It is on TV, and via Hearts TV for a good number as well plus the usual hooky websites.  I think if we get 15k to 16k that might be good for a noon kick off at this time of year.  Obviously if we get more that will be superb.

Yep understand that.  I am talking about bums on seats when talking about 15k to 16k.  I know it is lowish and hope I am wrong but we have seen before noon kick offs are the ones fans of all clubs do not relish.

If we’d given Sevco the full Roseburn then there would be around 2,000 walk up Jambos that wouldn’t have got tickets but will be there. Great decision from Hearts.

Looks like the Main Stand is sold out.   Unless people can't go at the time and release their seats.   

 

Still  seats in Gorgie (20), Wheatfield  and a lot in Roseburn.

I’m in the long distance group,  for me to attend means an overnight stay before the game,  a lot of expense at this time of the year,  Luckily my brothers grandson will be using my ST on this occasion. 
Thank god for the TV streaming pass.

Yeah I am a 50 to 60 mile round trip, not massive but I am sitting at Musselburgh races after a horrendous drive over what with very poor weather and heavy traffic.  Sunday weather looks better so I will probably go but at this time of year who knows how it will be.  The TV pass is an unfortunate option this season so like you might us it and give my ST to my mate.

Cheers man, looking for a bite as well as will be heading from Fife early doors. Appreciate that tho. Will prob nip in for a swift one tho. 

[Baxfee]

Have no intention of counting seats but is looking good at mo. This feels like the first really big home game - start of the season we were not in a full stadium and it was all a bit flat, especially hibs game. Hopefully, the players will get to experience tynie as it should be - loud and bouncing!!

First come first served kind of thing and it will be rammed.

Dot count update just now:

 

Main: 0

Gorgie: 17

Wheatfield: 55

Roseburn: 389

 

LEFT: 461

 

As we've learned to expect, the club seems to find chunks of seats we don't expect to see popping up - today it was a group of seats more or less together in Section E of the Wheatfield - about 20-30 seats. That's just an aside though - sales moving along well.

Tynecastle would get it’s well deserved reputation as a bear pit back if TV hadn’t stuck it’s grubby paws into football. 
Aye, there will be an atmosphere of sorts but noon on a Sunday is a ridiculous time for a match like this. 
Hibs game, as you’ve mentioned, is a good example.
