Behind the goals and Safe Standing

[JohnM1875]

£800?! Oft. No doubt it’ll sell out though.

[04Sauzee]

So currently early bird renewal for my FF upper seat would be £395. The cost of behind the goals will be £800. As much as I'd love to use it I can't guarantee I'd be able to get down early enough every game. An extra £405 for a padded seat and access to food and drink that costs extra comes in at an extra £21 per game assuming you get 19 home games. That £21 doesn't include me buying any food or drink. That's just me , we have 4 tickets in our house. Think I'm going to have to sit this one out.

Unless I’ve missed it…I can’t see any option to move for people currently sat in East 38, (which will become the family zone) that would want to move rather than sit on a family section?

So if I’m reading it correctly the prices for next season have been released and early bird gold will cost me £430. Can anyone remember what the equivalent was for this season ?

Apart from more affordable prices for families, what difference will there be?

[Stuart93]

I reckon it’ll sell out so the club will be quids in

It would be nice for them to bring something out that your average ST holder can afford/gain access to, especially with a family. Where am I going to take the wee man when he’s older so he can tie a scarf up and use it as a baw

I’m not a ST holder so it doesn’t really effect me either way

.....and still no mention of how the standing section will manage the flags which id imagine will be behind goals.

Will they or will they not be up during match play? As im in section 18 row P if so they will impact our view if we decide to stay.

Two weeks to make our decisions but we still dont have all the facts!

Kieron Power , is this one you can answer? I asked before but you stated more info would be made available from the club. I assume this communication is that and it doesnt answer this key question for me and i'd assume others.

Thanks

We’ll adopt a short pole flag policy. Large pole flags won’t be permitted during the game so supporters in different areas of the Famous Five Stand can see the goalmouth uninterrupted.

Fans sitting in the lower area in front of safe stamp, will have their view blocked , by the central area , which is fully Safe standing. Depending if they need to look to the left or right hand side of the pitch .

Im sure they are going to have play zones in the concourse, funky forest, climbing frames, tarzan ropes, ball pits, music, disco, face painting, creche facilities a milk and juice bar and ample secure parking for buggies and prams with nappy changing facilities throughout

Unsure what they are doing for kids though 😳

[marinello59]

Has the priority for away tickets been removed from the Season ticket benefits?

[Green Man]

I’m currently in row J, section 17, which will become the last row of seating before it turns to standing. My son wants to be near the ultras and I can stand up knowing there’s nobody sitting behind me to worry about, while I can also get a seat if I get tired. Don’t think it could have worked out any better for me.

[Gatecrasher]

Maybe as part of these upgrades they can clean the shelves in the East stand. I'm surprised the health inspector hasn't shut it down yet.

I'm not sure what the padded seat ticket holders are currently paying? So £800 for home games with access to a paid bar and paid street food. Is that good value?

I'd say so.

Assuming, that is, that it is unlimited bar visits and unlimited food?

[Real Emerald]

I wish they would just bring the old BTG bar back but a well run version serving a good pint. Was a great asset for ST holders. It would be worth an additional annual fee but not as much as that.

I wouldn’t mind trying it but if it turned out to be not so good I would have given up my great seat in the East, so probably not worth the money or the risk.

[Brightside]

All great news for the club.

Unless the safe standing is full and they decide the rows in front now belong to them like at away games

Not at 40 quid a game, would be some loss per head by the end of the season

As an oap I paid £280 for my seat in the ff exec, section 50. I can’t see any mention of an oap discount. No way I can afford £800, even if I could I don’t see the value. Drive so can’t drink, food not bothered, a seats nice but not at that price. Quite happy to pay a reasonable price increase but an extra £520?
Having followed Hibs for nearly 60 years and paid a lot of money to the club, I think a wee discount wouldn’t be asking too much.
(Without over egging my position, having certain medical conditions mean that the padded seat is a godsend, and a lot off older fans are probably in a similar position).

How much would you be happy to pay?
