    A lot of games at the moment and that's going to take its toll on fans wallets and attendances for games like this unfortunately.

    I agree. Could be a very low crowd. I think £20 Is a bit hefty given the 3 midweek European games and the fact many folk will have holiday debt.

    Prices should have been lower but then Ross County probably had a say in what was agreed.

    As I said in the initial thread, it was just £15 for Ayr in the same round last year, and with the discount for season ticket holders, it would have gone down to £13.50
    Still think we need to be reducing child prices for these sort of games as well

    How many sold? Looks like about 4k online.



    EDIT - scrap that, looks a lot less than 4k!

    To be honest I think both clubs have got the pricing wrong, this could be a record low attendance in recent years.

    Don’t know their refund process but of the tickets that were cancelled not a single refund has been received from those I’ve spoken to.

    I think you are right.

    I spoke to someone yesterday, a season ticket holder who takes his grandkids to the games, and he said that he just coul$ not afford to go.

    Maybe that poster with the great dot counting program can come on and do a dot count for this match?

    It costs my mate about £100 a time for non ST games with two kids in tow …. chances are they wont be at this one. Keeping a run in Europe going has its down side, and poor turnouts for games like this is one of them.

    If we were to make the group stages I would imagine Hibs will be charging about £30 for an adult ticket, with a possible package deal of £80 for all 3 home games I'm guessing. That being the case I can see it substantially reducing the number of walk up fans we get for league games during that period and reduce substantially our crowds for any cup games.

    That will be a pity, but in this day and age of high expense for day to day living, especially if you have kids, hardly surprising.

    Refunds normally take around 3-4 working days to recredit an account. The club have no control over that that's how long is takes to go through the banking process.

    Re BTG, the quality of the beer/lager has really gone downhill. For the Molde game last week, what was being served was pretty disgusting to taste. It's on my 'ignore' list.

    £23 for an adult, plus £12 and £12 = £47. How is he spending an extra £53?? I take my two boys and my only other expense is the petrol.

    Should note - I'll need to miss this one as I can't afford it as it's a ridiculously expensive time of the year, never mind the football.

    We only had just over 8K for the Ayr United midweek game at the same stage of the tournament last year, think we'll be lucky to get 7K on Sunday. With the three Euro games, plus this, plus two ST payments is £159 on football in the space of a few weeks.

    I seriously considered not going but I want to see Hyndman and Horgan getting a run out - hopefully Agyepong as well.

    I'll be a last minute decision. I'm spending a fortune on Hibs at the moment and games like the testimonial and Sunday are the ones that might have to give.

    If I can justify it on Sunday then I'll just buy on the day.
