Simple solution is for Hearts to fit sprinklers in Roseburn and then turn them on whenever the great unwashed indulge in their usual sectarian crap. Which effectively translates to the whole game

I’d stick 50p in the meter to see that😀

Can we not fit some live wires to their seats and then turn the sprinklers on?

Here's how it looks if you fancy counting yourself:

 

 

 

1,888 left.

 

All things considered, I think this is actually quite good given the restrictions on ticket purchases.

Lol. There are Hearts fans who post on here every day who live abroad. Some who have lived for decades in Edinburgh or Scotland and now for one reason or another live in another country. Are you seriously trying to say they aren't massive Hearts fans?!!! I'm sure  @Geoff Kilpatrick for one would have something to say about that!!! 

Keep me out of this!

 

Besides, I've been to Tynie this season. No idea if I got loyalty points for the Killie home game, nor do I care.

Seamus O'Fea and his lass Aoife, both frae Lochee, will have simply splashed out on corporate tickets, so deary me!

 

Joking aside, there seems to be all sorts of consternation as regards keeping Celtic fans at bay, but, as per when we totally went to town purchasing corporates at Fester for that ill-fated 'money-spinner', they will, I'm sure, have snapped up hospitality briefs nae bother.

 

I'm in the camp that reckons us having to be a tad slicker when assessing ticket sales for such matches. In this age of computerisation there surely must be a switched on Uni student who could figure out an algorithm based on previous purchases that would allow genuine Hearts fans to purchase on behalf of family & friends without simply battening down the hatches and turning folks away.

 

The blurb from Hearts about hospitality stated "must have previous purchase history and NOT against Celtic".

 

Maybe got the wording a bit wrong but you get the gist.

If I buy an E-Ticket, will Main Stand turnstiles scan barcode from phone?

 

 

Yes, our magnificent barcode scanning turnstiles will scan your phone. It’s part and parcel of being a UEFA Cat 4 stadium.

Shouldn’t be any empty seats.  Q/Final of the Scottish Cup at HOME against Celtic 🤷‍♂️ Doesn’t make sense to me.  Will be wanting tickets for a semi and final if we win though.  We should start awarding 10 loyalty points for these games.

[Ricardo Quaresma]

So...

 

Tried to buy a ticket, Firefox on android & couldn't zoom in to seats, same with chrome

 

At work, PC downstairs, log in and type all the debit card sh!t; bank wants to send a text code; no phone signal at level -2

 

Go up and get phone which is sitting on ground level, type in 6 digit code and E-Mail address only to be told by etickets that it's all lapsed and have to start again

 

Do it all again, back up in the lift, no text, wait a bit and get text, type in correct code, told it's wrong, type correct code again, time out again

 

Kicked *** out of a table and chair

 

Went upstairs and used an iPad, job done with 7 seconds to spare

 

E-Tickets, go and **** yourselves, this is your doing

 

I'll probably sleep through the game now

Yes, well, before the new turnstiles the hand scanners in the Wheatfield entrance were able to do it

 

Nice to have clarificashun, as people put it on here

 

Don't want to be the tw@t that tries to faff about at turnstiles only to have to back out into a rammed queue 🤣

It’s appalling. We only have a chance of winning silver through cups. I seriously do not understand it

[neilnunb]

Sure there will be plenty bought tomorrow, often a late surge on the day when its the cups.

 

HHGH

PM’d you a ref mate.

 

If anyone else needs one let me know

[EH11 2NL]

Feeling as confident as you can be against them today, a decent showing midweek with a weakened Hearts side plus the fact we're at home bodes well. Not being a sell out isn't a huge issue, if I remember right it was about 12k of us at Hampden in 2012, never done us any harm back then. Cmon Hearts biggest game of the season, a win would be absolutely massive!

That really isn’t too bad. So looking at 16-17k attendance. Must be the biggest cup attendance at tynecastle in years. 

[ShedBoy]

Morning Jambos! Bacon rolls and lager on the go. Feels like a cup final day. Please do this lads ♥️♥️G♥️

[Shaggy2]

Today’s numbers are actually looking pretty good. If everyone turns up that’ll be in the region of 17,500. That’s a 4:1 ratio in our favour and by a distance the best home Scottish Cup attendance outside of Hibs since stadium reconstruction. At £30 a pop and the (correct) decision not to sell to any old Tim, Dick or Harry to prevent the risk of infiltration I’d say it’s not bad at all. 
We could easily have sold out without that last preventative measure but it’s the right call.

Thank you mate got a second ticket sorted - top man.

I've got a ticket in block f if anyone wants it. Meet in the pub about 10.30-11.30. 

[JALBO]

Let's all get stuck in today, make a great atmosphere, and encourage the team, even if we're on the back foot at times. Celtic can be beaten.

It's pretty easy to understand tbh. 

 

Many folk have a life  and other priorities out of football and Cup games are not only an extra cost, but cannot be planned for and take time out away from other activities, some of which may be routine and put others put if changed. 

 

So the Cup games  get sacrificed for kids, work, keep the partner happy, money  or just inconvenience.

 

 

 

 

 

 

[JALBO]

Looks like we'll have about 1,750 left. So about 14,000 sold I would think.

 

Enjoy the game everyone.
