I’m a lifelong fan but haven’t been to a game in 10 years because I’ve been looking after my sick dog, anyone got 5 tickets spare please? You didn't use the term, diehard, so no tickets for you.

Might delay the kick-off but at least we'll have a 100% accurate figure. Not if some put on a false moustache, dark glasses, and go around twice!!

Only question is if they have missed sections that have never been on sale yet that appear sold out. Most other sections still have random seats available though - so can't be 'unreleased'?

wentworth jambo Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 1 minute ago, Fozzyonthefence said: I’m inclined to belief Joel Sked getting confirmation from Hearts rather than some randoms on JKB just guessing. no coincidence then that a random Rangers forum mentioned the 16k figure, this was then copied and pasted by Record / Herald and then by Hearts Standard ? Article mentions that remaining seats are "mostly behind the goals" - looking at the seat map that is the case and 5k remaining would suggest that most should not be behind the goals but maybe unopened South Satnd blocks.....soemthing doesn;t add up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suggests to me that if there was a waiting list there would be a large bank of folk queuing up to get semi tickets. Fact is sales of 16k don't even cover existing ST holders.

dontkillbill Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 What allocation did we get against Rangers in the League Cup? Was it 18k? Surely that's the number we need to benchmark against.

Do The Dance Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 (edited) I think if we don't sell them all, and then there's no issues with handing tickets over to Rangers- then I don't see why they can't offer the 50% share everytime, even if it's time limited.

But lots of ST holders don’t attend semi finals and just because someone is on a waiting list wouldn’t mean they would want to go either, it just means they have expressed an interest in buying a ST for 19 league games at Tynie.

Fair enough and obviously there are ST holders that can't make semi so others have bought to make up 16K. Does seem tho the alleged large block of fans that are out there desperate to see the Hearts can't be arsed. Don't think we'll need to 'fill in the corners' any time soon.

Polonia Gorgie Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 It's far too easy to call fans shite bags because they're not attending a semi final, we've already played them 4 times this season with 4 defeats!!! One of them at Hampden, some fans are just numb with the thought of going threw there. Instead of calling the fans shite bags, call the players and coaches shite bags for getting thumped on every occasion that we play them!!

But someone at Hearts must be 'reporting inaccurately' if (as has been mentioned) people are being told there are no more sections to open, as well as saying only 16,000 have been sold.

Both things can't be true. I mentioned above - the Hearts Standard article mentions most of the remaining seats "are behind the goals" - this ties into the map in that most remaining seats are behind the goals, however nowhere near 5k. So, Hearts Standard article can't be true - either there are unopened blocks which would mean most tickets left aren't behind the goals or the 16k figure has been copied and pasted from the Hun forum where it was first seen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
