daveyhmfc Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Still looking for two tickets for today's game. Cannot get map to load in ticket exchange and ticket office not answering phone. I can meet and pay cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yvonnejambo Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 I put my partners ST on ticket exchange yesterday as he can’t come down but not sure if it will get sold with the seat map being down. It’s Sec P row 3 if anyone is looking for one and can get to ticket office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t want to have to tell them not to turn the TV over. It's not being shown. Well unless the pub has a "box". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I get confirmation it’s not been sold I will have 1 and can meet at the ground but obviously will be better for you if you get one not on ticket exchange just in case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveyhmfc Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 It is worth noting that there are no concessions available if purchasing tickets directly from Ticket Office. Cost of living crisis and all that; decided against on paying full price for both me and my son. However, if someone was to offer me an adult and u16 ticket; I could meet them today and pay cash.

I think the lack of concessions is definitely a flaw of the ticket exchange system. A solution may be to pool the total revenue raised by ticket exchange for any given game and share equally amongst those returning their tickets regardless of whether their seat sells or not.

Two problems I can see here. If an adult St is sold as a consession then the club loses out. If all revenue is pooled then people can actually score out of not going to the game, which could be an attractive option for a midweek game in January for example Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMR123 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 There is something far wrong at the moment with the definition of “Sold Out” . There were clearly significant blocks of seats today that were never put on sale and yet the ticket exchange was opened up. That is potentially losing the club revenue as exchange tickets sold have funds credited to the seller. we then had the issue of buyers not able to buy online for a few days pre match. I am sure the club are aware of all of this but an explanation would be useful to us as club owners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say, it is difficult to understand why the club appears to be putting the sold-out sign up and then holding back a few blocks of seats from sale.

No the club doesn’t lose out - it has already sold the seat so even if only reselling the seat as a concession it is still additional revenue to the club that it wouldn’t have had without a resale.

heartsfc_fan Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Attendance 18,856. Very decent however I did notice an empty pocket of seats in lower A and also lower G wasn't sold out. We should be able to break 19,000 for a category B game if these seats are full. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FionaHmfc Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Bottom of section A for the Ross county game had all the kids who played on the park at half time. We didn’t have any playing today so maybe explains the empty seats if they are being kept behind for if/when the kids come on at half time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveyhmfc Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 The site being down for a couple of days clearly did not help. In addition. the club should have put a message out explaining the situation and that people could attend the ticket office to purchase tickets. As it was, I decided against going today.

Noticed loads of seats in Lower A were empty. Think they are the seats traditionally used by the youngsters that come on at half time but see no reason why they couldn't have been sold today.

Today there was no away seats lost to segregation at the bottom of section M nearest the main stand which adds maybe 100. Doubt that will still be the case for Hibs, Celtic and Rangers though. Imagine most teams in the league will probably sell out the away section except Ross County, Livi and St Johnstone.
