Think these may be snapped up fairly quickly. 

[GeordieJambo84]

Coming up for this. Can't wait. Cheaper for a train & match ticket from Newcastle than it is to go and see Newcastle these days. 

[One five]

Tried to get tickets for the Legends lounge for this one sold out already, got to be organised well in advance nowadays 🤦‍♂️ good for the club though 👌

Yup exactly this. Not easy these days to keep on top of it all as a non-ST holder.

 

I missed the general sale for Falkirk despite being at ticket office one day too early to buy them. My fault… but got stung almost £90 for tickets for me and my 2 youngest.

How much is a Newcastle ticket?

There's a great buzz about Tynecastle the now.

Winning is great.

I’m ok as I’m a ST holder but often got to the legends lounge with a bunch of mates it really is a great day out, yeah it’s not a cheap day out with the kids.

Celtic comparison, being on the ball, has only cost £54. 
 

Really important to keep abreast of sales periods. 
 

Irony is we were “in” this season regardless of anything. That’s what everyone says though 🥳

How many victims in hospitality this time? They usually manage a good few

Looking at around £47 for the cheapest for the likes of Burnley, Wolves at home. The average around £55 I reckon.

 

Got a return train from £22 and ticket for this for £24. Plus a day in Edinburgh.

Not actually too bad for families, got a huge Family Enclosure (approx 8k) that Mike Ashley brought in as a way of getting bums on seats and the club have ran with it. Really need to start dragging the nephew along.

Not any more. Used to be the case but the wee diagram shows the total unsold for each section.

It's a shame that they block 14 rows (50%) for segregation. 

 

Surely Dundee fans are not a security risk.

 

Celtic, Rangers, Aberdeen, yes.

 

But for the others about 8 would do.

We should have a pinned thread explaining why the segregation barrier is the size that it is. 

 

The exit stairs are designed to allow a certain number of people to use them, basically half a block per stair (half a row to one stair, half a row to the other). Because of where the stairs are in the away end, we cannot safely reduce the barrier, because then too many people would be using the exit.

 

In practice it would probably be fine (especially because half the away end tends to leave early these days as they're getting pumped) but I think law/H&S regs prevent it.

Its not like we are bricking up the end of the rows like a peace line. In the event of emergency evacuation being required is the risk folk have a square go over a yellow card becuase they are sharing a staircase.🤷‍♂️

Makes sense for quick and safe exits.

That's cheating - need to count each dot or change the thread title to "  Add up - Hearts v Dundee Saturday 1st November 3.00 Kick off "

Hi ,

How do you registered to get a reference number to buy matchday tickets?

Can you do so on-line or do you have to go into the Ticket Office?

Asking  for a couple of Brann fans who want to go to some games due to the Jensen connection, whilst living in Edinburgh.

Thanks

Ps I've been a Season Ticket holder for years

Hearts website -> tickets -> click on the "user" symbol then register (I think)

Cheers for heads-up. For long enough, it's only been the next match available on my etickets. We've got three games on sale at the moment. On the plus side, buying a few games up front saves money later.

If you go on a laptop or computer and go to hearts website, click on tickets and then click show all events, it will show the dates all games go on sale. It does not show on a phone for some reason.

Was not aware of that. Cheers (I buy on phone as usually my laptop is VPN - I've been hacked and had my drive wiped so I'm super paranoid about cyber security now)

We are the etickets mutual support team ahaha

The whole ridicoulous banner needs looking at it's way too big for its purpose and looks utterly ridiculous.

this argument really cannot be allowed to stand. We appear to be the only club in Britain (EPL or Championship or SPFL) that needs so wide a segregation barrier. At the very least, the barrier should be down the middle, between the two staircases, and opening up more seats for sale to away fans. Which Dundee would sell, to our financial advantage

Thought you had to wear a shirt and tie to get in rather than a Tic tap.

Depends which suite, to be fair. Dress codes range from none, through smart casual, up to no trainers or jeans (IIRC)

No problem, it usually allows you to buy them from about 9.30-10.00am.

Even better! I'll be ready to pounce then. So the formula seems to be 930-10am on the Friday 3 weeks before match day.

For seats together, only 40 remaining behind the goals.

We need segregation between Hibs fans judging by the last derby.

Absolutely, makes sense to open up a few extra rows to the away fans, if risk assessment has dictated that we cannot have any more for home support.

Definitely a big fence between them and their sisters anyway

[neiljb]

I guess the police and steward costs will be a big factor on how Hearts manage segregation.

 

Just as an extreme comparison check out how many of our police force are off the streets to manage an OF game. LOL

 

Compared with one of our routine games
