That's an outstanding figure at this stage, well done to everybody for keeping the momentum going. Can't wait for the new season, it's great to be a Hibee.

Was there not someone on here last year buying season tickets in bulk for kids through donations? Was fantastic. Wonder if it's happening this year.

The club started the initiative of Kicks for kids where at the time people could buy a kids ST for £75 and it would be allocated to a deserving cause. Mikey was an admin at the time and thought of the idea of people chipping in if they couldnt afford the full £75 and the site bought loads on behalf of the dotnet members. Franksuzy then started a proper charity taking the donations and setting up a monthly payment plan as well as auctions etc and donating it to the club for the kicks for kids initiative. You could probably still buy direct but suzys made it easy for us 😎
Im sure she will be along soon to tell you how to donate to Leith Links!

***Hibernia&Alba*** · 30-05-2017 06:44 PM

There are going to be big attendances next season. I think our average attendance could well be higher than the Maroonics', especially when they see the state of their team.

Thanks Mrs. S �� I'm meeting with Hibs in the next few weeks to iron out the finer details of the Club's Kicks for Kids initiative and will post this season's fundraiser thread ASAP

With funds already received, we've enough for 73 tickets, never mind auction items to bid for and Lewis' testimonial proceeds - what a wonderful effort, AGAIN!

Kickback will be entertaining if they are struggling to sell more STs than us. Though I can imagine if their sales are poor, official announcements of numbers sold will be held back.

Let's be honest, they will still claim to have sold more than us even if they haven't. It makes them feel big.

What was our average attendance for the season just gone?

**hibsdaft** · 30-05-2017 07:55 PM

By comparison, we had sold fewer than 8000 tickets at this stage last year. link here: http://www.hibernianfc.co.uk/news/6551

And we only broke 10,000 on around 7 July. link here: http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.co...cord-1-4172874

***weecounty hibby*** · 30-05-2017 09:20 PM

Jambo in my offices laddie is 21 soon and has never been interested in football until recently. Jambo dad asked him what he wanted for his 21st and he said a season ticket..................for Easter Road. Not joking, the office Jambo is spewing. Turns out his boy is going out with a Hibby and she has got him so into it that he has the strip and now wants a ST. Brilliant. And if you're out there and recognise this story well done girl!

Buying one for me and my daughter next week. I can only make 1 game every 3 weeks due to work commitments but my daughter is adamant that she is getting a season ticket like her friend.... she is only 6 years old 😄

Well done hibsdaft the exact information i was looking for that shows we have sold 25% more season tickets this year when compared to the same time last year.
Think we sold 10,600 last season,
add 25% to that = 2560 extra season tickets
= a new total of 13,160.
Add an average 2340 average away supporters and 3,000 walk ups
= average crowd of 18,500!!! (up 3,000 on last seasons Championship average so not pie in the sky)
Onwards and upwards. The future is Hibs

Average away support will not be as much in my opinion and probably average out as 1750 Walk ups will be affected by form (up and down) so I would say 2000 - 2500. I agree 12,500 to 13,000 season tickets achieveable.

My guess for season average crowd would be nearer 16.500 - 17,000.

***lucky*** · 30-05-2017 11:35 PM

If we start the season well I can see us opening the south stand to Hibs fans accept for games against Hearts and the ugly sisters

This post has put it nicely in perspective. Amazing effort, never looked so forward for a fixture list to be announced, so much excitement for the season!

When i added it up originally I had 1840 away fans and 2500 walk ups so my average attendance was estimated at 17,500. However, i added 500 to each of those totals based on our average attendance last season (15,500) being almost 5000 more than our season ticket sales (10,600).
Time will tell but i suspect my original guestimate of 17,500 to be about right. Certainly don't expect an average of less than 17,000 and up to 18,500 is possible.
A happy outcome for the club whatever the actual totals turn out to be.

**Since90+2** · 31-05-2017 05:30 AM

No renewed yet but will be doing it the day.

***Pedantic_Hibee*** · 31-05-2017 05:35 AM

Absolutely gutted I'm not renewing this season.

If we start selling out the other 3 stands on a regular basis, I can see us opening up the south stand to home fans for games against Celtic and Sevco as well.

Hearts should continue to get the full stand as long as we get the full Roseburn stand at Tynecastle.
