Tickets for the final

[J-C]

Maybe this has already been mentioned but I think the club should use the feelgood factor and use the two remaining home fixtures as part of the package to "guarantee" a final ticket. Say one or both tickets to Killie and Dunfermline plus a semi final stub to get one for the final once ST holders have their priority. It would encourage big crowds for two essential league games to ensure SPL status (remember that) and generate a lot more cash for the club.


Was just talking about this earlier to a mate, he reckons a stub from Dunfermline game will get you a ticket, guarantees a big crowd for what could also be a vital game in the season.

[PatHead]

Looks like Hearts only took about 9 or 10000 to the semi so they should only get that amount for the final in case they can't sell more. Hibs should get a higher percentage as we took around 15000 to our semi.

[Darth Hibbie]

Surely that's what the general sale is for, the pay as you go or get to a game when you can supporter. Although I don't have a season ticket for this year, I hope I'm still on the data base, I'm giving them a phone tomorrow to check out if I'm still on their radar, they still send me letters offering season tickets etc.

My thinking is that the data base will not be an issue. If it is not and (after the season ticket holders get one of course :greengrin) it goes to a completely general sale then you really have no idea who buys the tickets. Hibs may think that by offering season ticket holders two that the more "genuine" fans will get them :dunno:

I really have no idea the best way to go about it. I do think though that anybody that wants a ticket will get one regardless of how they do it. Unless they leave it really late.

As I've already booked trains/hotels for the Dunfermline game, that suits me fine! :wink:

So that's 24k for us and 16k for them :thumbsup:

Now that I know the Heineken Egg Chasing Cup final is on the same day I think that might be a bit generous for Hearts as they, being the establishment club, will obviously be watching their sport. Give them 12

Sounds fair and leaves 41988 for Hibs fans.

If they can't get the mini bus load we can always get rid if they need help and can only fill the 2 seater.

[IberianHibernian]

Non ST holders who bought a ticket for the semi should definitely come before a straight public sale. You don't need the actual stub nowadays and it would be a good way of rewarding those who turned up.Why ? Semi final ticket revenue was split between 4 semi finalists and prices were cheaper ( kids tickets etc ) than usual so why should attendance at yesterday be considered more important than attendance at Cowdenbeath or Ayr in previous rounds when club gained more money per supporter ? As for membership scheme it was introduced at a time when results and attendances were particularly bad in an effort to boost crowds during winter transfer window and withdrawn as we progressed in cup and club realised they might have problems with allocating cup final tickets having promised members " priority after STHs " for tickets . I`m neither a STH ( except Hibs TV in seasons when they offered it ) or member so am depending on luck to get ticket but don`t think STHs should get more than 1 ticket as it just means lots of friends and relatives getting tickets ahead of lifelong Hibbies who don`t have STs or friends / relatives who are . Travelling to Livi and Killie finals I saw fans with green scarves who were travelling to a football match for the first time in their lives which I think was great as stadium was not full but for this final I hope Hibs don`t take easy route of offering STHs 2 tickets to make their job easier and instead make an effort to help regular fans get a good chance to get tickets too ( STHs 2011/12 , new STHs 2012/13 , members 2011/12 , and then look cloesly at other groups - shareholders , supporters clubs based further afield - Ireland , Orkney/Shetland , Lancashire , London etc. , Hibs TV season ticket holders etc ... ) . Also for future seasons , maybe " cup top up " should give priority for 2 cup final tickets - with other clubs they probably do the same but use a different name .

Surely the Dunfermline game is too late to guarantee tickets for the final? That would leave less than 2 weeks for general sale

[blueisthecolour]

Would the club not just be better putting on a public sale and whoever wants the tickets most will get them.

No I wouldn't but when I said earlier about IF celtic got their they should get more tickets so fans who go every week don't miss out I took a bit of stick with people saying it's a cup final so people who don't go should still get the chance , now folk are working out ways the folk who go every week get first chance of tickets, im just wondering if the same folk saying this think the same.

[Hibs7]

Why not go to both games?

Only one game I want to go to, (Hampden) the Wembley Tickets are company tickets.

[blueisthecolour]

That will be my choice:wink:

Are you open to negotiation in the event that I source two non hospitality tickets for hampden :greengrin

[Billy Whizz]

Be interesting to see what the prices will be. Last years Final at Hampden for Motherwell v Celtic was,

South/North Stand £35
West Stand £28
West Stand Family £25/£10 (Motherwell had 5 family Section A1 to A5)


Motherwell Fans had the chance to buy 4 Tickets per season ticket holder!!:duck:

[LeithBoozy]

Our wee band of waifs, strays and lonees have dropped the cat in amongst the pigeons by reaching the SC Final, no one was prepared for this to transpire. I hope everyone deserving get a ticket, but that's not what happens in the real world.

[Hibs7]

Being a Hibs member I think will get me two of those, was just testing the water, as I would really like to take my son from London to the final in a bit of style.

[number9dream]

Pretty sure it will be 2 for ST holders, one for members then an almighty public scramble for the remainder...
Dunfermline stub is not a bad shout but hopefully we'll be safe by then.
Not sure the club will give it too much thought since they are guaranteed a sell out any which way.

As someone on the database that was at the semi (with a Spaniard, who LOVED it), I'll be in the public bun fight.

Just a pity about the 6 - 8,000 hospitality / SFA freeloaders that will be there...

Good luck everyone!

I think they will give it loads of thought and will no doubt IMO be giving a ticket to fans that get a season ticket for next season as a carrot. They would be silly not to given the likely drop in season numbers prior qualifiying for the final.

[TheEastTerrace]

You never know, the freeloader allocation may go down as Rangers and Celtic are not in the final.

I suspect the following - ST X2, Club Member X1, Public Sale. They may throw in a stub related game to cover the Public Sale scramble but 22,000 doesn't stretch far.

[kennyh]

Does anyone know if Hibs Kids membership counts the same a normal membership. For the semi we waited till the public sale to get extra tickets with other fans. I am a memebr and my two kids are lifetime members of HK's. I would hate to have to gamble and wait for the public scramble for me and the two wee ones.

Do you think there'd be enough time between the games though? I'm in two minds as with it being a Monday it's a bit of a killer for me but if it guarantees me a ticket, to hell with it, screw the consequences.

Doubt it. Hibs Kids don't have any priority on tickets normally AFAIK.

Wouldnt imagine HK would get you a ticket. Why dont you buy you Member ticket, then try and get three in general sales.

If you don't get one in the general sale, you will still have a ticket for yourself. If you do get three in the General sale, you will be able to punt your member ticket a thousand times over to people on here.

Four per season ticket holder. The remainder to new season ticket holders.

Not that Hibs have any reason to delay it but the sooner everyone knows and can make appropriate arrangements the better.

[Hibernian Verse]

They'll be debating how to go about offering a Cup Final ticket with every new season ticket bought.

Would it be possible to have existing season ticket holders x 2, then new seasons x1.

No idea how many seasons we have this season imagine 7k, so 14k if they get 2 each and then maybe another 3 or 4 thousand new seasons. Would still then allow Club members and then public sale for the rest.

[Billy Whizz]

I'm presuming that we get the East End of Hampden. This will be better for Hibs fans as we will be able to get along the new M74. I'm presuming that the Hearts buses will be sent over the Kingston bridge.
Noticed also that we've been drawn at home for the Final

We got tickets for the 2001 final this way. New ST applicants maybe even got more than 2 each iirc as there was at least 5 or 6 of us there and it was only the old man and I that got tickets. Very vague memories of a box asking how many tickets we wanted with the application??

I work for Will Hill and I'm guessing there won't be a huge demand for corp tickets now the old firm aren't involved, may brown nose a fair bit but I'd rather not be in with the suits.

For those of us whove already renewed, from an entirely selfish point of view I'd hope we'd get a bit of reward back...

[easty]

Will it be a case of 1 ticket per existing season ticket, then 1 ticket for next seasons season ticket, meaning that those who have renewed will get 2?

[Billy Whizz]

Fife Hyland just been interviewed on Sky Sports News. Says tickets will be on sale at the end if the week. His words were "we are focusing on our season ticket holders. If you want a ticket for the final, get a season ticket"

It will be bitterly disappointing if they don't reward existing season ticket holders with the opportunity to purchase two tickets for the final as they did the semi. New season ticket holders should be guaranteed a minimum one.

I dont disagree with season tickets getting some sort of benefits for this but Ive been to alot of games this season (including throughout preseason), both home and away, including buying a lot of merchandise, and because I cant commit to a season ticket (as I dont know which weekends Ill be off), it sounds as if my chances of getting a ticket for the final are fairly low?

I may be wrong and Im willing to wait and see when the information is released, but sounds like theres very little chance of reward after regularly following a team who lets face it, have been terrible for almost the whole year.

[Billy Whizz]

No surprises there then!? :wink::greengrin

And there shouldn't be. Rod made it quite clear in his interview 2 weeks ago that season ticket membership was of upmost importance to Hibs.
How the pendulum had swung in the clubs favour since Saturday.

[TornadoHibby]

Why should they do it that way? I don't really see the argument behind giving 2 tickets to each season ticket holder.

It's been the way for years now mate and Hibs won't be changing it just because we have reached a Final and endless amounts of people now want to go and feel deserving of a ticket for the Final just because they went to the semi final or as a result of re-writing the policy for existing ST holders for games such as semi finals and Finals! :confused:

Get a ST if you're not sure if you'll be able to get a match ticket! :agree:

[Pretty Boy]

Why should they do it that way? I don't really see the argument behind giving 2 tickets to each season ticket holder.

I think a lot of peoples thinking is that this would allow folk to go in the same groups as Saturday and reward both ST holders and semi final attendees.

You'd hope ST holders would use their common sense and only give a ticket to a real fan and not buy extras so their sisters mate who went to a game against Rangers in 2002 gets one. If they only need one, only buy one and not two just for the sake of it.

[smurf]

Why should they do it that way? I don't really see the argument behind giving 2 tickets to each season ticket holder.

Because we fork up huge amounts of money up front and should be given benefits and rewards for doing so. That not enough?

[cwilliamson85]

Why should new season ticket holders get the same privileges as an existing season ticket holder?

I feel the club should offer existing season ticket holders and club member’s tickets first. 1 per person but when you get your ticket you can put the people you wish to sit next to season ticket / membership number down to and get there ticket also so you all sit together.

Then people with semi final tickets. 1 per person again and if the person you wish to sit next to has a semi ticket you can get that one to for them.

Then public sale = 2 per transaction.

I do think though that theres no real reason why ST's should get 2 tickets. Historical or not.

[easty]

Of course, you get first dibs on the tickets. If there are particularly robust gentleman/ladies whose derriere requires 2 seats then I'd be fine with that as well.

I'll add, I'm not trying to kick off some whiney campaign, if Hibs decide that each ST gets 2 tickets then that's fine. Just saying I don't see why it should be so, and if it is the case that each ST gets 2, then I also think that new ST's should get 2 as well.

[hibee62]

Why should they do it that way? I don't really see the argument behind giving 2 tickets to each season ticket holder.

If its 1 per season, it makes it more difficult for friends to go and so people won't go if they're sitting by themselves, for reference see 2006 semi final...

[Pretty Boy]

Its probably worth adding that if Fyfe says they hope to have tickets on sale by weeks end that doesn't leave much time to get any new seasons sold on the promise of a ticket.

£400 is a lot for most folk to find mid month, more if its a whole family on top of £30+ for a match ticket. If there was big numbers interested getting all the applications done on top of trying to sell tickets could also be logistically difficult.

[Mikey]

Hibs will be well aware of the demand for tickets for this one. 1 ticket per ST holder will pretty much guarantee a hefty budget for PF to play with in the summer window.

If that's what they do then buying a ST for next season is the only way you'll be guaranteed a cup final ticket.

Look at it this way, it's £450 (all in) to go to the cup final and you get 18 games next season thrown in for free :greengrin

[col02]

Arrangements for the final should remain the same as they did in the semi final imho. Current ST holders have already dug deep to back the club this past season and no doubt the majority will renew again next season I know I have and that was well before the semi final. I also think people are failing to look at the facts in that the two tickets per ST holder arrangement only yielded in a Hibs support roughly about 14,000 in number on Saturday so there is about another 10,000 Hibs fans to find from somewhere that have not been regular attendee's this past season!

[Scouse Hibee]

I'll get a ticket, I'm not worried about that.

I do think though that theres no real reason why ST's should get 2 tickets. Historical or not.

:agree: I am a season ticket holder and should be guaranteed 1 ticket no more, I simply don't see the logic in why I should be given two. Why should someone else benefit from me being a season ticket holder???


FWIW if they give us two I will make damn sure it goes to a regular attending fan rather than someone who has only interest in attending cos it's the final.

[Scouse Hibee]

If its 1 per season, it makes it more difficult for friends to go and so people won't go if they're sitting by themselves, for reference see 2006 semi final...

No comparison between a semi final in 2006 and a SC final in 2012. If you want to go you won't give a damn where you're sitting. Why the hell people who don't follow Hibs through thick and thin think they should benefit off the back of a loyal season ticket holder is totally beyond me.

You could argue that 2012-13 season ticket holders are displaying more loyalty by purchasing a season ticket when they doi not know which League Hibs will be playing in or if some crooks are able to force a Newco Rangers into the SPL.

The "I'm not renewing to see this pish for another season" brigade must surely rank lower?

[Mikey]

Here's a novel idea.

Whatever they do, how's about we just get on with it and work round the restrictions, rather than moan like **** about it :greengrin

[hibee]

I was told it will be 1 per season ticket plus an extra if you've renewed and 1 for new season tickets, don't know where that information came from though!

No you couldn't at all, those who have already renewed like myself and have done for years are the lifeblood of the club, not folk who are now buying a ST just to guarantee a ticket for the final and will then moan all season and not renew again.

I don't. I'm not sure why someone who didn't buy a ST in 2011/12 should get the same privilege for a 2011/12 cup final as someone who did actually buy a ST last year.

I've no problem with new ST holders getting a ticket guaranteed but the existing season's ST holders should always be the priority. Unless they're going to guarantee 2011/12 ST holders a ticket for the 2012/13 cup final.....

so you'd have 4-5k st holders sitting on there own?:confused: not all tickets holders go to games there self. has to be +1 surely,

[down-the-slope]

What this thread shows is that, no matter how hard Hibs try to make the allocation fair to everyone, some folk are going to be left disappointed and will whine on here about it.

The hysteria on here since yesterday is mental.

Well thats just the once they will be disappointed...the club has been dissapointed in their non-attendance numerous times this season

[easty]

so you'd have 4-5k st holders sitting on there own?:confused: not all tickets holders go to games there self. has to be +1 surely,

If ST holders always go to the games with someone, then why doesnt that someone have an ST? If the ST holder goes with different people each week, then how will they decide who to allocate thier +1 to? :wink:

[JennaFletcher]

If I have a spare ticket, that I can get from my ST (I want to go with one other person at the mo) but will buy the 2nd one if I can, I'll give it to the first Hibby that will buy me some oily chips and cheese at the game as a thank you, hahaha! :agree:

[jgl07]

If Hibs come up with a proper loyalty scheme, all this argument would be avoided.

The scheme at Manchester City gives loyalty points as follows:

Season ticket membership purchase 190 points

Joining the FA Cup scheme (contracting to purchase a ticket for all home FA Cup ties) 100 points

Joining the League Cup Scheme 100 points

Joining the Champions League/Europa League scheme 100 points

Taking out club membership 25 points

Attending a home match 10 points

Attending an away match 20 points

These points are cumulative over the years. At the moment to get a ticket for the Newcastle away match requires a season ticket membership and 7250 points. This will drop day by day until the allocation is sold or the tickets go on public sale. You would have needed a lot of points to get an FA Cup Final ticket last year!

There is a friends and family scheme which allows members to be linked so that they can purchase seats together.

A system like that could be in place by the start of next season at Hibs if the will was there. The only issue is that non-members or those who purchased paper tickets or paid at the gate at away matches would not get any credit.

It is open and transparent and would avoid this ridiculous arguments every time that there is a big final or a limited number of away tickets.

[Peevemor]

If ST holders always go to the games with someone, then why doesnt that someone have an ST? If the ST holder goes with different people each week, then how will they decide who to allocate thier +1 to? :wink:

I never bought a season ticket because, due to other commitments, I normally missed 5 or 6 home games per season, although when available I hardly missed a match home or away. The guys I went with were all ST holders.

me and my dad have had season tickets for years, this is the first season i didnt as i knew id miss the first 3-4 home games. so therefore he would allocate the ticket to me.:wink:

for the record i dont give a monkeys where i sit. its just strange how we couldnt sell out tynie but now people are starting to panic about not getting a final ticket where there will be 20 odd thousand available.

there should be a card points system somehow for games attended. points mean prizes.

Pointless, as it is only once in a blue moon when tickets sell out.

IMO that's why they brought in the membership scheme back in December.

£30 well spent in my book. As it got me money off the New Years Derby, free ticket v StJ, and now guaranteed Cup Final ticket.

A loyalty scheme at Manchester City! I wonder how long some of the "new" fans will stay loyal :greengrin

Probably more than would stay loyal to Liverpool if they dropped to the third tier.

Anyway what new fans? Eastland virtually sold out in its first season of operation (46,834 in 2003-4). A few drifted away when Stuart Pearce was manager and the team went six months without scoring a goal at home. It is now marginally up on the first season at just over 47,000. All home league matches sold out for the home support.

Prior to the move to Eastlands, City had a 32,000 capacity stadium, the home end was filled for many seasons back including those in the second and third tier.

Don't let the facts get in the way of your scouse prejudices (and I don't mean the KKK here!).

im just hoping that those of us with semi final ticket stubs get an earlier allocation than the general sale. if not, bring on the hunger games :flag:

[TornadoHibby]

I was told it will be 1 per season ticket plus an extra if you've renewed and 1 for new season tickets, don't know where that information came from though!

So why bother posting it then? :confused::confused:

No comparison between a semi final in 2006 and a SC final in 2012. If you want to go you won't give a damn where you're sitting. Why the hell people who don't follow Hibs through thick and thin think they should benefit off the back of a loyal season ticket holder is totally beyond me.

Very fair point but all rational thought about how Hibs SC Final tickets will be "allocated" has gone out of the window since Saturday afternoon! :rolleyes:

No previous experience of attending a game at ER necessary :greengrin .......just kidding. Everyone relax, the diehards will get tickets.

[JeMeSouviens]

Capacity is 52000, prob lose some north stand seats in the middle to segregation. Competing clubs get 21K each, so a little under 10000 made up of corporates + SFA member clubs + Hampden debenture holders (think there's about 5000 of them in the upper tier in the main stand).

Don't think there will be that many prepared to shell out £400 plus for ST's just to ensure a Final ticket when they will quite possibly get one anyway! :confused:

Those that were "swithering" due to relegation or SPL treatment of Der Hun etc might just decide to buy but those who have other reasons for not doing so probably won't!

[adhibs]

aye i thought that aswell.


main point tho the people thinkin season ticket holders should get two. your rewards being guranteed a ticket, the other one would be much more worth while goin to someone whos willing to quee up outside easter for 3 or 4 hours to get one rather than someone who happens to be pals with a season ticket holder.

[The_Todd]

so you'd have 4-5k st holders sitting on there own?:confused: not all tickets holders go to games there self. has to be +1 surely,

I'm sure when it comes to purchase, that won't be the case. It'll be one or two per ST, but one person could purchase and assign to other ST holders, no? You can do that on the eTicketing for example. That'll mean you can all sit together and still have 1 per ST.

[Lungo--Drom]

Calm the beans, I'm only jealous :greengrin and you are quite right :agree:

Just my opinion but I think something along these lines would be fair....

Week1
2 tickets per current season ticket holders that have renewed for next season = Approx 8,000 tickets (2 x 4,000) plus 1 ticket per current season ticket holder that have not renewed = approx 2000 tickets. These tickets to go on sale at the same time. 10,000 tickets maximum

Week 2
1 ticket for brand new 2012/2013 season ticket holders or current Hibernian Members = 1,000

Week 3
Leaving approx 10,000 for public sale

Public sale will be carnage. It'll be back like the days when getting one of the 3,600 Tynie tickets was like gold dust.

How it should be if you ask me!!

It will be 2 per STH for week 1, members/new STH for next year x 1 week 2, week 3 = public sale.

Not sure if anyone's already posted, but surely some priority needs to be given to our oldest fans, the ones who have been waiting longest for a Hibs cup win? Not wanting to be gruesome, but my old man is 90, has multiple illnesses, and staring at death's door in an old folks home in Sheffield. Whatever happens, I could see Hampden next month delivering him upstairs after a mighty rollercoaster last 90 minutes. There must be plenty other older Hibbies who see this as their last mortal chance of finding the Holy Grail.

Well thought out I don't think the public sale will be anything like 10,000 for 2 reasons. Remember that Tynie tickets sales were less than 4,000
A) Season ticket holders current and new will probably take around 14,000 to 15,000
B) I don't think Hibs could handle a public sale of 10,000 easily.
Its too easy to sell tickets to STH/Members rather than large queues of 10,000 or so outside Easter Rd one bright morning.

[Ken]
