benny Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I hope so too. I really doubt they will though. The only game you might struggle to get a ticket for is the New Year derby at fester road.Even then season ticket holders should get a ticket no problem.

John Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 does paying for an away season ticket for 2 years automatically entitle someone to a lifetime of preferential ticket allocation? just wondering, i would have renewed mine after the 1st year if i'd known Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamboRossi79 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Surely the loyalty of the folk who go EVERY single week should be rewarded no ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scabber Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Surely the loyalty of the folk who go EVERY single week should be rewarded no ?we do go every single week so we do have a high number of loyalty points, thats the point we just want an easy way of getting tickets for all ticket games without a 150mile round trip to the ticket office every time .as phone bookings hit you with booking fees every time.

John Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 the problem with the away ticket scheme was that it appeared to favour only those supporters who were away season ticket holders for 2 years. correct me if i'm wrong on this. it wasn't open to all hearts supporters who may have difficulty getting into to tynie for away match tickets.

The Treasurer Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 the problem with the away ticket scheme was that it appeared to favour only those supporters who were away season ticket holders for 2 years. correct me if i'm wrong on this. it wasn't open to all hearts supporters who may have difficulty getting into to tynie for away match tickets. It wasn't open to all as that would result in people "signing up" just to get tickets for big matches ie Fester Road. The scheme rewarded people who were prepared to commit to attending most if not all away fixtures. Yes it should be open to others who weren't initially involed in the scheme but has to be limited to ensure regulars get first option to buy. Ps. This is not meant to be an "I'm a better fan than you" post so please don't turn it into one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In an ideal world John, but we all know that doesn't happen especially where big games are concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
