Dundee game Cup final ticket ballot - winners announced

[Waxy]

Hopefully Hibs will keep a couple of hundred tickets back for ballot.as a last chance for everyone. Could get a decent gate.

[Baldy Foghorn]

Aye, because our home gates against Aberdeen and St Mirren were huge

[hibIBZ]

Unlikely would think the club will want the ticket sale done and dusted more than a week before the final

[PerfectlyFranck]

They'll keep tickets for a ballot.

Cup final fever [desperation] will have kicked in by then. The gates for the last two ballots were very poor but a Dundee ballot will see a decent turnout, in my opinion.

[WestEndHibee]

Could imagine a nice carnival atmosphere if we had relegated Hearts by then.

[DH1875]

They won't do it but the fairest way I'd do it is to put everyone who's not a ST holder but has bought a ticket for the PBS to enter a draw. That way it's only folk on the database and therefore only folk who have been to games that are in it.

:confused: your suggestion means only folk who have contributed to hertz finances are in any potential ballot.

I think, if there is a further ballot, they'll find a way to ballot people who have contributed to HIBS.

I know, that's why they wont do it. By far the fairest way to doing it though and to be fair, they'll have contributed to HIBS before as they'll have bought a HIBS ticket before to get on the database.

[blackpoolhibs]

The club should keep 100 tickets back, and have an X factor/Britains got talent type weekend, where those without tickets get to audition for them. Some could sing, some maybe dance, and i'd give 5 away to those with the best sob story too. This would be filmed and sold on DVD in the club shop. Its a winner i tell you.

Now i'm Simon Cowell, there's 3 places left to fill, 4 if you count Amanda Holden. :wink:

[JimBHibees]

How about a 5 mile run in full army gear and backpack around the pitch starting about 2pm so early fans can watch the finish as they arrive for the game. Each turnstile will have a loaded gun which is handed out to one fan per turnstile and teh nominated fans can shoot any of the runners they deem to be too yammish to be at the final. Too yammish could cover general scruffiness, slovenly appearance, have a look of never having held any worthwhile employment or looks like they have been drinking buckie from an early age. First hundred to the finish line get two tickets each. :greengrin

As have would anyone on the database.

PBS need have nothing to do with it.

What's to stop a group of celtic fans turning up at the dundee game in the hope they win the ballot? You don't need to be on the datadase for Dundee tickets and anyone could get them. My idea would be the fairest but I agree 100%, would never happen.

[Saorsa]

Be nice if they could organise it so that ST holders could get their hands on the tickets they're supposed entitled tae from the club, never mind them organising ****in' ballots for people only turning up tae games tae get cup final tickets..

I'm sorted for tickets, so no axe to grind. But I've not been to pbs for 20 years and have no intention of ever going back. There'll be plenty regular walk-ups like me, who won't go there, but no ticket for the cf as yet. It would be v. unfair to exclude them from any further draw.

That's no fairer than putting folk who buy a hotdog, pizza, bovril, white coffee, steak pie, mince pie and Yorkie at the next home game into a draw.

Edit: I see now that loads of folk have made similar points about how your idea isn't particularly fair or even beneficial to Hibs.

So you wear your breeks half way up your belly ?? I see you as more of a David Walliams:greengrin

Its a good look imo, the trousers go up an inch every year. It wont be long before i have to cut eye holes out so i can see. :wink:

[.Sean.]

Aye, because our home gates against Aberdeen and St Mirren were huge
Nope, they had two chances and if you could have made either of those games but didn't go because you couldn't be arsed I hope you don't get a final ticket.

That way it's only folk on the database and therefore only folk who have been to games that are in it.And fans like me who have been to the majority of home and away games this season wouldent be in the draw. Sounds fair :rolleyes:

:agree::agree:

That's the spirit, no mercy.......:greengrin

[Billy Whizz]

Until we get a points system like our soon to be bankrupt neighbours, this sort of debate will run and run. We should have been able to reward regular walk up fans at ER with a priority scheme after season ticket holders/Hibernians etc. I know a lot of people who have gone to over 12 home games this season, who will have to wait on a public sale, I also know a few people who have got tickets from friends who have paid to less than 2 home games this season!

No tickets at gate...BUT if he buys ticket at one of the Pods (West Excepted) then yes all stubs are kept by club before sale and used in draw ...all you need is ticket as proof...

500. Can't have been many more than that paying in so not too unreal!

2 each too. More than I got as a ST holder!

[iwasthere1972]

:thumbsup: Two years on the trot. Ticket at Aberdeen match did nothing but today's did.

Already got three tickets but went along today as nephew and son also wanted some. They will be delighted.

[Pete]

Bloody swiz. :-)

One ticket from my row was lucky while the row below had about 40 winners...all together.

[Hiber-nation]

Hopefully none of the clowns that were sitting a few rows behind me won - wanting Caldwell subbed after 25 mins, slagging off Spoony's every touch, ranting at Fenlon to get subs on 2 minutes into the 2nd half, mocking the lap of honour etc etc.

[trev the hat]

Well done to the auld geezer sitting next to me in East.

[McHibby]

Absolutely gutted. I had bought a few dotted around the stadium.
I am spewing, I think I had really convinced myself that I was going to be lucky.

[Dibben]

Ah well.

We'll not get our 4th ticket that we were after...

[Hermit Crab]

Any of our ex pats get a ticket?

[alan1875]

I have my tickets for the final but 4 of us were walk ups today and didnt get a ticket between us... my sister is gutted. The seat next to the first of our 4 seats got picked. Ahwell, good luck folks. :-)

[down-the-slope]

the spare seat next to our 2 ST seats in west lower (that I buy for when brother etc can make it) won one...was filled first half then he moved second half...

Hope he knows / kept stub

[Hibby70]

The bloke next to me got one, he was Dutch I think.

[Lelopoli]
