I’ve never said I’m against a loyalty scheme.
I’m discussing the merits of having one though.

You'll always get points whores though, they can still only buy one ticket for a high profile away game though.

I attended every single game in our promotion season. Home and away. All cup ties as well, except the Scottish cup tie at tynecastle because I couldn't get a ticket. Is that fair?

It’s not fair btw but the value of season ticket sales is the most important thing to Hibs.

You’d gather all your points at the rest of the away games
That means ones who go to Pittodrie etc for a night game are rewarded
It’s very rare for us to sell out a category B game
Might also encourage more fans to go to away games, which was what it was all about in the 1st place

Rather than loyalty, it's attendance points. You collect points for each game attended and at the end of the season they get allocated for the next seasons ticket purchases. Do away with the AST as you don't need two schemes in places and the lions share if the admin work for this is done throughout the close season.

Absolutely not, why is why we need a points system.

It's disheartening that the board seem to be taking such a stubborn stance upon the loyalty points issue. It's a farcical situation, and the supporters are once again being ignored and taken for granted.
It's also ridiculous (although I appreciate this may be a Celtic issue more than Hibs) that there is now further tickets available that supporters were not informed about.

It's an extreme example obviously but can quite easily happen again. I haven't missed a game this season except away Europe ones and again, I won't be at Celtic park

Our fans reps have already told us (that they have been told) they will not be brought back.

I wonder how other clubs cope with it being called a “loyalty scheme”
I wonder how other clubs cope with the increased costs and increased resource needed at their ticket office
I wonder how other clubs cope with point whores
I wonder how other clubs cope with season ticket holders threatening to stop buying their season ticket
Other clubs cope because it is such a simple logic: the more games you go to, the more points you get and the more chance you have of getting a ticket for the bigger games.

Despite having record Season Ticket numbers of circa 14,000, our away crowds have not really increased that much from what they’ve always been. Most away games will see between 1500 - 2500 travelling fans of which the majority will be regular travellers. It’s not unreasonable to suggest that they should be first in line for high demand games with limited allocations. The evidence is there that most of our 14,000 season ticket holders are quite happy to take their for home games to support the team, but not as fussed for away matches, and I’d argue that a Loyalty Scheme would not devalue a ST, and wouldn’t discourage anyone from not buying one.

In a week or so another thread exactly the same as this will appear when the tickets go on sale for the PBS. All the same points will be raised all the same arguments will be discussed and nothing will be resolved. Then we get to through it all over again when the Hun tickets go on sale and so on and so on.

What about a simple Ballot?
Everyone who wants to go to an away game, add your name to a list and draw the names out a hat.
Draw requires to be fully transparent.

If I don't get a ticket for the away end which is rare anyway then I sit in the home end.
It's no Biggie.
We don't need loyalty points. We rarely sell out our away allocation
We are riding a wave and this is what happens when you support a club that's doing well

Any scheme need to be a simple as possible, and reward people who put their money into Hibs first.
So season ticket holders get 25 points, plus 1 for each home cup game. That prioritises season ticket holders.
Walk ups get 1 point for each game they attend but only for tickets bought online or over the telephone at least 24 hours in advance. That benefits those who pay money to Hibs for the home games.
Paying cash on the day means you miss out so there is no hassle for the ticket staff.
Those going to away games get 1 point for each match, except when we sell out our allocation. So they get rewarded for going to Pittodrie, McDiarmid etc but not Ibrox, Parkhead and the PBS.Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.
