Gorgie_Rules Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 15 minutes ago, Back to 2005 said: Has anyone at the club been able to explain the rationale behind giving the OF a higher number of tickets? A complete nonsense. I believe as of the start of last season there was an agreement to give them two. This covered us in the event that form dropped off and we couldn’t sell out match day tickets in the Roseburn. Due to the Old Firm allocating their tickets to their fans at the start of the season (I believe they are charged automatically), that committed us to the 2 sections, even in the split. There is enough evidence now for us to justify telling them they are just getting the 1 max this season. For segregation purchases i’d put them in the top of one corner only and make the home games against them much more bearable for us all.

Francis Albert Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Anyway yes great for the fans that Hearts are selling at about 10 per cent lower in real terms than last year.

Fxxx the SPFL Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 We should be giving the old firm feck all tickets would save on policing costs security etc I’m sure we could fill them but if not would rather see empty seats than those bar stewards.

Sarah O Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 5 hours ago, Gorgie_Rules said: I’d happily pay more money to see the Old Firm cut to just the top of section M only. Hope there is serious backlash if we chose to give them preferential treatment over other away clubs. To be holding seats back to give them when we have a large waiting list for STs would be a disgraceful decision. It’s time somebody in Scotland doesn’t let them get all there own way. Exactly. The silence is deafening from the club on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francis Albert Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Apologies for being a bit strppy with one or two yesterrday. A long train journey with too many visits to the buffet car might have had something to do with it. Anyway for those interested (and strangely some seem to be) my email arrived at 8 am this morning and my problem with the Hearts site was caused by bypypassing the main page and going to the News page. But a positive suggestion. I am not struggling with the cost of living crisis and don't need a real reduction in the price of my ST. So I will increase my annual FoH sub by 10% of my ST price. I recon tis will cost me the equivalent of less than one pint or one glass of wine per month and hold the club whole in real terms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beave1874 Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Me and the laddie renewed this am. Freezing the prices and this coupled with the Ticket Exchange credit is absolutely welcome, particularly as I have had to move job this month with a big salary reduction. This also allows me tp keep FOH donations the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
