    Tickets will go on sale from 10am on Friday 31 March, available only online and via the Hibernian Call Centre.

    That's gonna cause carnage.

    Brilliant. Cant wait to spend two hours of my day waiting in an online queue. After my experience of trying to phone for tickets for the last away derby i'll never be doing that again.

    I've never really had an issue getting tickets online past few years. Even cup final was a breeze.

    I don't really get why anyone would want to buy in person tbh.

    I get what you mean, and I'm the same, however, everyone, me included, tries at 10.00am on the first day of the sale, and the system can't handle it. At 2 tickets per ST holder, every ST holder that wants a ticket will get one. It's just that most of us want the South or the North. Another Day of my life wasted

    You'll waste a lot less time doing it online than you would by going down to the office, no?

    I agree that everyone that wants one will get one but our allocation is 21K and we have more than 10500 season ticket holders. So in theory, if everyone wants 2 we don't have enough.

    I am in favour of those attending most games getting first dibs on tickets so no issue with those away season tickets getting the better seats but why are they the only ones who are benefiting. That is in extremely small loyalty scheme. Every debate around loyalty I have read has suggested season tickets etc should guarantee a ticket not a ticket in a certain section. Should my full season ticket get me the option of particular seats before half season tickets.

    Hopefully the online system will be better but I very much doubt it. A loyalty scheme, or an extended loyalty scheme on top of the one we seem to have for away season ticket holders, would have sorted it out and ordered fans into logical tranches.

    People that queue up dont do so because they like waiting in line for hours. The majority of them do it because they dont trust the online system to work. They've experienced it in the past and know what a nightmare it can be.

    There will be no need to go online as soon as tickets go on sale to buy tickets for this. There will be plenty of time, everyone really should just relax.

    There are loads of tickets. Why would everyone need to be online at the start. I bet it'll be very quiet after a few hours. Folk panicking about nothing.

    Because Hampden has a limited number of decent seats and folk want them instead of being stuck behind the goals miles from the pitch.

    Its got plenty decent seats. No danger the North stand will sell out on day 1. We haven't taken anything like 20000 to a semi for years. Not sure why this year will be any different.

    People seem to be unable to grasp this. Also why it should've been one per season ticket holder to begin with to give season ticket holders who want to sit there a greater chance of a ticket.

    Totally agree. I was behind the goals at the falkirk semi and I couldn't see a thing. It was the worst view I have ever had.

    Away season holders punted behind the goals with no option to upgrade. I don't have one but seems harsh. They can buy an additional ticket but not beside their existing one

    No we aren't, we are in the North. East is behind the goals

    Maybe i'm reading it wrong, but between March 31st and April 5th - do season tidcket holders potentially get to buy 4 tickets? Then its a general free for all?

    Any idea on when General Sale begins? Bought flights up but no tickets, was pretty confident this would be going to general sale?

    You'll get a ticket no bother, we will not sell 20'000 to season ticket holders.

    Think you're reading it wrong. STs have got until the Thursday to buy a max of 2, then its general sale.

    Can't see there being a problem. We'll take around 20K as usual.

    I'm glad they are continuing to move towards all tickets being sold online.

    Avoids these daft queues. Like concerts the key is for the system to handle the volume of traffic going to be on the site.

    I like the 2 per season ticket holder idea also.

    Well done Hibs - hopefully majority of season ticket holders snap them up and we fill out whole end.

    Been a while since we filled a full end for a semi final. This should be the challenge this time.

    I'm probably being very stupid, apologies! But it says two tickets per season ticket but if you are on the database you can get up to ten tickets. I am a season ticket holder and obviously on the database, I need to buy 8 tickets do I need four season tickets?! So confused ha ha!

    If you want 8 tickets before the 6th of April you will need 4 season tickets. From the 6th April it is open to anybody on the database who can purchase up to 10 tickets.
