Paris 84 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Maybe the FOH contributions could be put to providing a solution to the need to give the uglies two sections. It surely wouldn’t cost a fortune to get new toilets, a catering kiosk and a new spot for the security barrier. Money well spent for me.

Reducing it to, say, one section would mean the second, or part of it, would be the segregation. No change needed on the concourse.

Through that, @Dagger Is Backcan pass on almost any ticket - even my over-65 ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JALBO Posted January 25, 2022 Author Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) Count with a little over 24 hours to go: Wheatfield 36 Roseburn 523 Main 00 Gorgie 14 Total left 573 Just a word of caution - I think the club removed about 175 seats en-masse from section H during the early part of the afternoon. I was online when it happened and saw all the blocks being taken together, so I can only imagine this was the club's doing. It may be they had a need for such a sizable chunk of tickets - but it may be that they have been held back for some reason and are still to be sold.

Back of the envelope suggests even if we gave them and their OF mates the whole of the Roseburn and we sold none of it, we would be talking well under half a million a year of lost revenue assuming no concessions sold. And without taking account of extra security and cost of repairing seats and kiosks and toilets. And the advantage of a big away support. Why is it even a debate. The money would make no difference to our ability to compete with the OF or to our ability to be best of the rest until such time as we can realistically aim higher. Which just might even be now.

Unless we start playing shite the of won't get the full stand again. We don't need to completely sell out to justify it. I don't disagree with you, or anyone elses comments, for one second. I only responded based on what the club said when we put questions to the CEO and Joe Savage at a meeting the FHSC clubs had with them recently. I'm like every other Hearts fan, would love to tell the OF fans to feck off because we don't need them, we can survive off our own backs.

Rocky jamboa Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Even if we got an extra thousand on the attendance by giving the bigot brothers the full Roseburn, times that by 3 or 4 games a season, at an average of £30 a ticket and its only £90k-£120k of a difference for the season. Deduct the extra policing costs, damage they do and the stadium and the cost is negligible. Add in the benefit of having more jambos in the ground and the lift that gives the team, plus not listening to their horrid songs for 90 minutes and it's an absolute no brainer to limit them ongoing.

jr ewing Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 4 hours ago, portobellojambo1 said: I'm sure the club will take a number of factors into account when making future decisions. But I'd hope you may agree that from a business point of view the club also have to consider situations which they know are factual and not run the business based on ifs, but and maybes. And the main fact they do know is that for home games against both halves of the OF we were able to give them the full Roseburn, i.e. generate money we can count on for future reinvestment. I'd love to see the club being in a position where, going forward, we can basically dictate to the OF how many tickets they can have, but in terms of doing that we need to be in a position where that becomes a guarantee due to what we are achieving and the desire to turn up and watch comes from a reaction from Hearts fans. The more money we are making the better team we can construct to compete regularly at the top level. Would always make an exception in their case 😏 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richiehmfc Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 They gave us no tickets in the league cup with at least 10 thousand empty seats They gave us 700 for the last league game at Parkhead. I was there, behind a big pillar and there was at least 300/400 empty seats beside us that could have been given to Hearts. We owe them nothing and will end up with a max of 200 spare tickets come kick off which means approx 1500 extra hearts fans are in the stadium. A brilliant, fully justified decision by the club.

OTT Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 One thing I’m noticing from the coverage in the media and the general rage from Glasgow is that they know we’re not dependent on their cash to justify our existence and they don’t like it.
