Actually, having re read it, it’s possible it’s referring to last season?

But in all seriousness it could be a real problem. We could happily chug along and sell the whole ground to ST holders, but IMO it is vital that we have scope to cater for walk ups .... not everybody can afford a season ticket ( that was me for many years ) and not everybody can commit to the 18 or 19 home games for a variety of reasons .... Both camps include many enthusiastic Hibs fans I would imagine and to make them feel excluded would not be good for us as a support or Hibs as a club.
IMO if we were to hit the 14,000 mark we would have a serious question to ask about whether or not to stop ST sales at that point. It would also start to make the responsibility for ST holders who cant attend to let the club know they can release their seat for re sale far more of a thing.
It will also bring sharply into focus the swathes of empty seats in the FF lower at most home games .... we all know Hibs are already asking questions about this themselves and if we have folk who couldn't get a ticket for say Hibs v Aberdeen watching the game on the telly and seeing 2 or 3 hundred gaps in that part of the stadium you could understand why they wouldn't be best pleased.

My info was on Friday at 5pm we had sold just under 12,000 but crossed that figure on Saturday morning.

I don't think this will cause a massive issue for walk ups but should be an alert to the club to make a real effort sort out the empty seat issue in the FF Lower. Even for matches against Celtic, Rangers, Hearts & Aberdeen there are always at least 50 empty seats in that small area, which is just wrong.

Many will buy them for a child who is unable to attend all matches, particularly mid-week.
It hasn't been an issue previously as there were always plenty of gaps even for Hearts and OF matches.
They have gone some way to resolving this by banning upgrades from the Family section.

I'd be surprised and a bit disappointed if we don't sell more STs than last season. It's going to be difficult to get tickets for the big games without one. You will probably need a ST to get a ticket for Hampden games too.

Surely you want as much upfront and as many committed to every game as possible.

Lose some key staff eg Lennon or Dempster, go through a bad spell of results and we could be back struggling again, we need to make as much as we can whilst we can.
If we were to totally sell out season tickets and had a quality team on the park, getting results, we’d have no problem attracting new fans and replacing future season ticket holders that don’t renew.

Unless we had 16,600season tickets there is no need to set a cap. Thats the point where the South Stand seats come in to play. The walk ups will probably only be made available in that section from now on. Even then we could still sell STs in there because we can squeeze the away support further down to 800

Strange as it might seem, I hope they do, and that Hearts do likewise.
It wouldn't be the same if the away fans in a derby consisted of two section of the South Lower
