Spurs have a waiting list for a season ticket of 70,000? That is absolutely mental if true.

Yes, very true.

They are very cute. Single match day tickets very rarely go on public sale, you have to be a Bronze member, that gets you on waiting list.

How does this all change with the new stadium, presume loads on the waiting lists, will get 1st dibs at getting a season ticket?

Yes.
Obviously with being at Wembley last season they took ST holders upto about 40k ish, that's when I was offered one, I was 13.5k on the list for Wembley, after being on list for about 7/8 yrs.
One of my mates in Edi has just bought one for next season, he declined for Wembley and was around 5.5k on list.
They are capping ST holders at 42k. So demand for day trippers will continue, and so will the 50quid per season.

Cheers

So even with a 90,000 capacity they cap their STs at 42,000 and charge the rest £50 for being on a waiting list?

Manchester City cap season ticket sales at 40,000. With 3,000 or so for visiting support, this leaves around 11,000 tickets for match sales out of the circa 54,000 capacity.

Why did they only build a 62k seater stadium?!

Surely would have made sense to make it bigger.

You ever been to WHL? Its severely restricted with surrounding streets and buildings.

Which is presumably why Spurs wanted to build a new Stadium on the Olympic site?

I wonder if transport issues also had a part in the decision regarding White Hart Lane.

I think that the 62,000 figure was to ensure that it was bigger than Arsenal’s 60,000.

Make it too big and demand for tickets would be greatly reduced. Part of the reason people will want the ticket is because they're so hard to get.

The "day tripper" effect and associated spending described on this thread is very interesting. While it won't be conclusive and would not capture cash sales I'd be interested to see if Hibs could run reports on match club shop spending on non-UK credit cards on match days to establish what % of sales such purchases account for (and in turn, which countries the cards originate from).

That's 'cos of all the 25 quid kids tickets.

[Ronniekirk]

Would imagine we will pass the 13 000 mark by time the current payment plan expires

That 50 quid per season, just for the privilege of being on the waiting list, sounds like a total rip-off. There's absolutely no way it costs anything like that for administration costs, so it's just blatant profiteering.


The waiting list thing must bring in more money than most Scottish Club's whole budget for a year (3.5m quid?)

Think we need to keep the goodwill going though, by announcing a couple of great signings

Not like me to be relaxed about these things Billy but for some reason I have blind faith (although I told you we would struggle against the Hearts )
If no one has been announced by next Monday though ,I will probably break out into a Cold Sweat
Am at a wedding on sat where the guy that gets me my personalised videos and signed Hibs stuff from John Mcginn Is at So hoping to get an update as to what is happening Will P M you if I get anything concrete

Yeah but even an 80k stadium would still leave demand outstripping supply. Lack of surrounding space seems the only logical reason.

Think Celtic charge either £10 or £20 for being on their waiting list.

Man City do season cards for £299 in a certain sections of the ground, I could have bought one this season with my membership but I couldn't afford it when they went on sale, maybe next season.

Do they not deduct what you've paid to be on the waiting list off the final price of the season ticket? Man City used to do that in seasons gone by, £100 to be on the waiting list but this was deducted at when you got a season card.

They did change a one-off £100 and then deduct it when a season ticket was purchased. This applied before the stadium was expanded to 54,000.

Now it works if you buy a enrol as a member (free) you are automatically on the waiting list.

I paid £35 for my Cityzens membership last season and the season before.

I'm pretty sure if we had all those superstars playing for Hibs, you wouldnt find an empty seat at Easter Road.

Its known as the emptyhad for a reason.

I have no idea what city need to do to attract full houses at their ground, they won the league by miles, play the best brand of football ever seen in that league, yet still there are HUGE gaps most home games.

Even the city fans i know down here dont know what more the club can do to fill the ground.

Did we get much of a bounce from yesterday's news? What about when Mallan is announced next week?

Hibs mentioned yesterday we were just shy of 13k. Superb effort.

Does anyone know anyone swithering on a ST waiting on Mallan to sign? I still can't get my head around that logic.
