Half season tickets on sale now

[euansdad]

Just a wee bit of advice. Want to buy one for my nephew for Christmas. Are they usually available in time for Xmas?

Cheers

[Billy Whizz]

I would have thought the 1st game you would be able to use it would be the Celtic game on the 29th December. Hibs will have played 9 home games by then with 9 to go.
would make sense for this to be available by Xmas

[euansdad]

Aye. Would be a great Xmas present and people would surely be interested

[Scouse Hibee]

Aye. Would be a great Xmas present and people would surely be interested


A great present :agree: which may well to lead to conversion to a full ST for many.

They are always available before Christmas. It was announced at the match yesterday that details will be released shortly.

[euansdad]

Brilliant, thanks lads. Wee bugger will be made up.:flag:

[Fred Perry]

A great present :agree: which may well to lead to conversion to a full ST for many.

Think you are right with this.

Following on from The Rangers situation I commited to getting back to ER if we were playing at home at 3pm on a Saturday.
This has led on to going to yesterdays match which in turn has swayed me to go for the half season when they become available.
Have to say I will then probably commit to the full season ticket next year as well as have defo caught the bug again.

GGTTH

[euansdad]

Aye. If hibs market this properly could be a real boost in the January market

[Keith_M]

Well, that's me got my Christmas List sorted already then.



Thanks for the idea guys :thumbsup:

[euansdad]

There will be a rush, I have first dibs!

We should have 19 home games, not sure when the half season kicks in.

Half time during the 10th game perhaps:greengrin

[LeighLoyal]

Will defo be getting one, also handy if they get to the SC final again.

[hungryhibs]

I have a season ticket for the famous 5 but my son wanted to go to the east next to the drum he loved it there so a think I'll buy half season tickets for the east :aok::pfgwa

[euansdad]

Aye I'm actually thinking of getting one. Was close in the summer but couldn't due to being out of a job. Thankfully things have picked up and I'm in a decent place so well worth a buy

[KdyHby]

Half season applications were available in the club store today. East £220 for boxing day matches onwards.

Bit pissed off with that. Surely they should make them available through all streams?

[Billy Whizz]

Nothing in the official site. I'm sure when this is available Hibs will be heavily publishing this
Don't worry we're not going to sell out

[euansdad]

Cheers mate. All set for this

[Largshibby]

If the half season ticket includes the Celtic game on 29th what happens if Hibs have already allocated all the tickets to season ticket holders plus a free ticket for each season? I know its maybe a remote chance but with the team doing well it could happen. How do we sell half season tickets that include a game that supporters might (theoretically at least) not be able to get into?:confused:

[Hibeesmad]

There's going to be massive demand for the hearts tickets! Got to be fast on those!


Thats if there is a game of course :wink:

[Hibeesmad]

And I'm talking about the new year derby.

[VickMackie]

I'd imagine they'll go on sale after the 24th and they'll have final numbers for the Celtic game.

[Alex Trager]

I have a season ticket for the famous 5 but my son wanted to go to the east next to the drum he loved it there so a think I'll buy half season tickets for the east :aok::pfgwa

And do what with your currents?

[euansdad]

Yip could be a wee thinker for the club. The Celtic game may surely be included in the halfer ST

[hungryhibs]

And do what with your currents?


ill give them to my brother and his son early crimbo present :greengrin

Anyone notice the name of the guy on the example ticket?

[HH81]

Good stuff, think the family tickets offer excellent value.

[DarrenSQH]

Haha taxman. good spot.

[iwasthere1972]

Must be abbreviation for taxman. Double standards and I fully expect whoever is responsible to be sacked.

[happiehibbie]

We need to enourage every person we know to buy these half season tickets if we are to keep progressing

[CropleyWasGod]

I see that the Student price only applies to students up to the age of 18. Is that the same for normal ST's?

[HibeeN]

I see that the Student price only applies to students up to the age of 18. Is that the same for normal ST's?

The 'Future' category includes anyone aged 12 to 18 or full-time students (of any age). Their wording isn't so clear there.

[Wembley67]

They should sack the designer for being inflammatory

[CropleyWasGod]

Thanks. It does imply that students over 18 don't qualify.

:agree:

[Bob Box Fish]

Shame they couldn't do an early bird 1/2 season ticket and try and link it to the hearts game - say buy it before the cup match and get a cup ticket for say £10. Jambos might have a say in that tho!

[HibbySpurs]

I'm In!!!!

Quick question though as I find the wording & pricing structure vauge at best....

Am I right in thinking that 1x adult ticket & 2xbairns tickets for the East Stand will set me back £305:confused:

[VickMackie]

I wonder if the free Celtic ticket is going to cost the club. I already have a Celtic ticket, through a season ticket I bought as a present, and was planning to ask for one for Xmas.

If the club could offer it minus the Celtic game we may get a few more sales.

[AberdreamHibee]

[Ross4356]

Going to get a half season ticket, ater May there was no way I was going to buy one then but Paddy has done a great job and its only right to get supporting the team, we are after all chasing a champions league qualification spot

[euansdad]

Getting two

[euansdad]

Can you ring them and book?

[lord bunberry]

I dropped someone off up there about an hour ago and there was a queue outside the shop so they must be selling well

[.SeventyFive]

I suspect I'm being a moron, but does getting an Adult Half Season ticket (FF Upper) mean you pay around £29 / home match from Dec 26th?
ie. more than walk-up prices?

[LancashireHibby]

More likely to be for the cup tickets I'd have thought?

[Hibbyradge]

Hibs will have had 17 away games by the break.

That means we should only have 2 away after the break and 3 at home, giving a total of 19/19.

The half seasons cover 10 home games, including the A category games against Hearts and Celtic (2).

The total walk up price for those 10 games for an adult in the East or West would be £241.

[JimBHibees]

There will also be 2 or 3 home games after the split.

Right enough - I wasn't taking the split into consideration.
Thankfully I was being a moron.

[euansdad]

Ordered. Made up

[lord bunberry]

I hadn't realised they were on sale yet

[StevieC]

Unfortunately the walk up cost would still be the cheaper option for me.

[euansdad]

Do they count for the hearts cup game or is that pre existing ST holders only?

[I'm_cabbaged]

Put it this way, I've got a full st and it doesn't count for cup games ;)

[euansdad]

Should do. Give them a ring mate. Clearly says this game is reserved for ST holder sale first

[iwasthere1972]

Put it this way, I've got a full st and it doesn't count for cup games ;)

I may be wrong but it will only be included as a cup top up in the ST if you purchased it by the 6th of April. Haven't read previous posts so you may already be aware of this.

[Hermit Crab]

Might mean Top man, however doubt we will ever know........

Twelfth man??

[Hermit Crab]

My sister got a student half season ticket. £95 not bad

[euansdad]

Good value wish I was a student. Does student of life count?

[I'm_cabbaged]

Thought you meant free entry :)
As mentioned above you had to be an early bird, first time for years that I never took the early payment plan, have to stump up forty odd quid now :(

[Hermit Crab]

No and neither does a student of alcohol unfortunately :-(

[Baldy Foghorn]

Twelfth man??

Yip, confirmed by Club officials tonight, twelfth man it is....

[euansdad]

Surreal moment ordering the ticket over the phone. First time i got through, a lassie from the ticket office said i should call back later as she is currently in a shop queue! Did the job later. Must have been a busy day for the staff, bet they are sound asleep now

[Pete]

FF lower looks like the place to be if you've young kids. £205 for myself and the boy looks good. £20 a match rather than £34/37!

I've never bought a kid's ST before so does anyone know If its possible to upgrade the ticket for some matches? For the matches against Celtic or hearts I'd rather take someone more robust!

[hibee_girl]

Yeah the ticket office will upgrade ticket with no problems, I've done it a few times

[euansdad]

That's what I'm looking at when my lad becomes a toddler. A father-son package. Class. Good scheme, glad to be on board and will upgrade to a full one next season

[Hibeesmad]

On the form we are on I think we can sell between 3-4 thousand half season tickets!

[euansdad]

3,121 approximately.....

[DC_Hibs]

On the form we are on I think we can sell between 3-4 thousand half season tickets!

Calm.

We have average home crowds of 10,000 (Hibbies) now which has increased roughly by a few hundred each game since season started.
We must have 7-8000 seasons suggesting 2-3000 walk ups roughly.
Do you think all those and more will buy a half season?

There are plenty people prefer to PATG as they can't make all games so if we sell over a thousand it will be a good result, 2000 tremendous.

[matty_f]

As many as possible please.

The games are MUCH better when the stadium has loads of Hibbies in it.

[Ross4356]

Couple of thousand and I'm one

[Hibeesmad]

I don't see why we can't get at least 3,000. There were 20,000 Hibs fans at the final and if we have 8,000 current hibs season ticket holders then I see no problem in getting that up. Especially if we beat hearts on 2nd December as I think many patg fans for that game will be tempted to buy one.

[Emerald]

At £65 for FF upper for a Hibs future, its a fantastic deal. This should be circulated around all the students in Edinburgh, especially those who may be living away from home. £65 to be able to watch SPL football every Saturday until the end of the season. I think it should be widely marketed and pinned up on every student noticeboard as well as work places. I bet a lot of people will be unaware this is on offer.

[GreenPJ]

I would say anything over 1,500 would be a real result.

[Ringothedog]

I would say anything over 1,500 would be a real result.

Absolutely agree, I would go as far as anything over 1000 would be a result. We would never get even close to 4000 half seasons even if we were giving them away.

[Cocaine&Caviar]

The transfer window could have MASSIVE ramifications, either positive or negative.

[Bob Box Fish]

Will depend on form and also the cup result against hearts.
If we can maintain (or close to) current form then around 1500 could be realistic. If we lose to hearts then that's another story.

Most season tickets we had was 12k including around 2k half season tickets in the Mowbray era.

[Vini1875]

Two things hugely important. 1 maintaining the current form. 2 winning against hearts on the 2nd and at tynie and beating celtc.

In general I still think many people expect Hibs to have a slump and this current form is purely down to an early season run which won't last. It will take something a bit special to shift that viewpoint like I said in points 1 and 2. However if we could accomplish that then an air of optimism might start to blossom.

Personally I'm enjoying each result as it happens and not worrying too much about the future.

[DC_Hibs]

2 winning against hearts on the 2nd and at tynie and beating celtc.

Well if that comes in then it might hit 4000...............

[Keith_M]

Maybe 1,000. I'd be suprised and delighted if it's any more.

[cabbageandribs1875]

between 500-1000 me thinks ;)

[euansdad]

Well whatever happens in terms of form or results I will monitor the situation closely and if we don't do we'll, I will look for another team to support. I hear the likes of man utd, man city, Chelsea, Celtic and Barcelona do quite well so quite happy to switch allegiances to them.

I will buy your half season that you have allegedly bought(at half the price of course)

[euansdad]

Don't know mate that is the problem I have. If I give it away and hibs continue to be successful ill regret it but if I hold on to it and they do have a slump, I'm missing out on glory hunting with another club. Damn this is tricky

[euansdad]

Before anyone takes that literally, cos there always are a few, that was my attempt at humour. Made up I've got a season ticket and will be taking the wee man to hibs games with me and bring him up a happy hibee!

No such thing as a happy hibee apart from the half time draw. Most of us are grumpy sods

[Scouse Hibee]

Sorry mate but IMO there is no way on this earth that we will achieve that amount.

[lord bunberry]

between 500-1000 me thinks ;)

Thats what i was thinking

[Billy]

Just bought 2 for a couple of relatives. Just hope they are not reading the forum :-)

[Hibeesmad]

I have now officially changed my mind from 3-4 thousand...to over 7k!

[euansdad]

Think there will be in the region of 1500 to 2000

[JimBHibees]

8 or 900 I would guess

[Stevie Reid]

Being realistic, about 500 I would think - would give Pat an extra £110,000 if they were all full price adult ones (unlikely I know).

[lucky]

500 would be great but think it will be lower hope I'm wrong

[down-the-slope]

Odd that some are suggesting that Celtic result / New year derby / and transfer window will all affect sales....all of these will happen AFTER half seasons come into effect on 26th December :rolleyes:

1500 ish but hoping for more :greengrin

[Onceinawhile]

Assuming an average 10,000 Hibs fans at each game. Less 8,000 st holder's, leaves 2,000 walk ups each week. In reality these 2,000 probably come from a pool of 3-4,000. It's likely we would get about 10%-20% of these to commit. So anywhere between 400 and 800 is my guess. Hopefully its closer to the mark in the op though!!

[euansdad]

To be honest, the advent of the Celtic game will probably increase sales

[DevonLoch]

I don't see why we can't get at least 3,000. There were 20,000 Hibs fans at the final and if we have 8,000 current hibs season ticket holders then I see no problem in getting that up. Especially if we beat hearts on 2nd December as I think many patg fans for that game will be tempted to buy one.



A lot of the guys that turned up for the final no longer live in or around Edinburgh. I went with a group of 10 - 4 from Edinburgh. 1 from Ireland, 1 from London, I from Germany, 1 from Aberdeen, 1 from France and myself from Devon. Also met up with a group of 10 from Liverpool at Hampden. The airport was buzzing with fans arriving from all over on the Friday before the final - there were 4 other Hibbys on my plane from Exeter.

Lots of us who can't get to Easter Road regularly would pay for a 'virtual' season ticket to include membership card, a few PAYG games, digital match day programme, priority cup tickets and Hibernian TV. Another income stream for the club - many English clubs do a version of it.

An excellent idea, something I would definately go for. :agree:

[NAE NOOKIE]

Anything over 1000 will be great. Anything over 2000 will be brilliant. Anything over 3000 will be a miracle.

[wookie70]

Went down this morning to buy 3 half season tickeks. Never thought to check if the shop would be open so it will be another wee while before I go down that way. It wasn't really cost effective to buy them as a mate has offered me free tickets for the Celtic game and I am bound to miss at least one more. Might just pay at the gate after all. I know it was my fault for not checking but does seem strange not to open until noon on a Friday. Presume there isn't enough footfall to warrant openning.

[euansdad]

Will they be posted out soon? Not worrying before anyone asks!

[clerriehibs]

Win everything up until the 1/2 seasons come into effect, including a roasting of the roasters, we could potentially shift 2k half seasons.

[HH81]

Will they be posted out soon? Not worrying before anyone asks!

Relax boss, you will get it and if not hibs are good at sorting it out...

[theonlywayisup]

I think a win today will result in a big and noisy Hibs support for the Aberdeen game. If we were to win that game, I could see a lot of people interested in buying a half season ticket. I really do feel that Fenlon is turning us around from being a weak team that had no fight, to a difficult to beat team that has class where it matters. The next two games will tell me whether we can have a really good season or an average season.

[euansdad]

Even an average season is improvement! Seriously though., crowds are improving and if we can stay in the top 3-4, more bums will be put on seats

[euansdad]

Anyone received there's through the post yet? Not worried before anyone says so, just wondering. In fact, I don't even know why I'm posting this apart from curiosity

Doesnt it say on the form something about if you've applied by the 14th of December you'll have it in time for Xmas:confused:..... This implies that they will get whoever makes them up "en masse" on the 15/16 December prior to a mass mailing. Makes sense I gues to get them printed all at once as it will be cheaper:wink:

I could be wrong mind:rolleyes:
