Hearts tickets...

[Hibs90]

How many have we sold?

[Pretty Boy]

I was down for a couple on Friday.

Selling slowly I was told.

[Ringothedog]

Not even one block I believe, I got mine yesterday and it was block M:boo hoo:

[Titch]

Not even one block I believe, I got mine yesterday and it was block M:boo hoo:

why does that matter i'm in block k and i bought them on the first day of the sale online

[edinburghhibee]

I know for certain that 4 of us are going to cheer on the boys

[Ringothedog]

why does that matter i'm in block k and i bought them on the first day of the sale online

it matters because they are sold in blocks, if what you are saying is correct then we will have sold K and L and are currently selling M.I was assuming that we were selling from Block M inwards The girl in the shop stated that we are not getting any further tickets from Hearts(I was after £18 tickets).

[Purehibee_MYB]

Full attendance from the MYB :aok:

[.Sean.]

Got mine yesterday - Block M was all that was available said the guy in the shop.

[1875Hibees]

Bottom tier is sold out I think. Dont know about upper though.

[Diclonius]

Taking my chances in the bottom tier again on Sunday.

My record in the bottom tier: Played 3, Won 0, Drawn 0, Lost 3. Goals for - 0. Goals against - 5.

Wish me luck. :aok:

[God Petrie]

Just give any unsold tickets to Hearts since its their cup final and meaningless for us.

[.Sean.]

It's just dawned on me how dysmal our record is at Tynecastle.

I've not missed a derby there since 2007. I think we've only scored TWICE. Riordan both times.

[Diclonius]

Same. I've only actually seen us score there twice at all.

[Pretty Boy]

I've not missed a derby there since 2007. I think we've only scored TWICE. Riordan both times.

Our Derby record over the last 20 odd years is a.disgtace.

Up until the very late70s, possibly even early 80swe had won more derbies than them, now we are miles behind.

Our performances in a lot of derbies is inexplicable because we have jad better teams on a lot of ocassions.

[SteveHFC]

Full attendance from the MYB :aok:

Will you have the flags out for this aye :cb :greengrin

[1875Hibees]

We will sell out.

Hoping to have them delivered by then! all depends on the hard work of the Royal Mail so probably not :greengrin

My "County Devon" Flag hasn't been dispatched yet :worried:

[Curly1875]

Went yesterday to get tickets and was told there were no concessions and only top tier was available

[Pretty Boy]

We will sell out.

Even if we don't it will only reflect that the game is now Hearts biggest of the season whilst it's not even our biggest game of the fortnight.

[yeezus.]

Taking my chances in the bottom tier again on Sunday.

My record in the bottom tier: Played 3, Won 0, Drawn 0, Lost 3. Goals for - 0. Goals against - 5.

Wish I had got a seat in the bottom tier, instead I was told that my view might be restricted? :confused:

[3pm]

It's just dawned on me how dysmal our record is at Tynecastle.

Our record against them is a joke.

[yeezus.]

I ordered two tickets online the last day and clicked 1st class post - can anyone tell me, are these tickets collection only? Nothing was said on my confirmation e-mail and last time I went to the PBS my ticket was sent out... :confused:

You should have got an email confirming delivery or collection. They've obviously been busy, if you haven't got them by Thursday, I'd give them a call

Need to check my e-mails, probably did - thanks again.

[hibeedonald]

So No-one in J or H? poor from us, think we have a great chance of winning and the prices are reduced.

[Pete]

If you want tickets they will be in section M upper.

There doesn't appear to be any logic here either and I am only guessing that we have nearly sold 3 sections.

I thought I was being smart by getting in half-way during the sales and trying to get good, central seats in the lower section. Section M, row 3 (which is actually row 2!), seat 1 and 2 have to be the worst seats in the ground. I'm taking my five year old to the piggery for the first time and I think he's going to have to wear some sort of protective head-gear. I've not even started to think about the abuse that will come from the pub-team fans who are within spitting distance.

If any bams want to come and swap their seats for mine then feel free. You'll be within taunting distance of the animals so how can you resist?

If you're having doubts then read the sob-story again.:greengrin

[givescotlandfreedom]

I got upper section M for Savile country. Seems a pretty poor Hibs crowd so far.

[blackpoolhibs]

Why don't we just give them the points, they might kick us and injure one or even more of our players.

We don't need this before the cup final, and the game is pointless anyway?

[Ringothedog]

I agree poor support and .....

1) it perpetuates the "wee team" myth :greengrin

2) it gives them less money so speeds up their long awaited demise:thumbsup:

[wearethehibs]

I never get why people care how many fans we take.

2 of the best atmospheres at Tynie in recent years have been when we only sold half the stand.

[Hibercelona]

Are the pink tickets going for a fiver again?

Or is it the 6x hike?

[Hibercelona]

I never get why people care how many fans we take.

Hibs also seem to play better when barely anybody turns up.

Perhaps we just shouldn't turn up to a final for a change and we might win the damn thing. :greengrin

I'll swap mine but I'm not sure if they are any better - Section M Row 26?

TBF we've gave them too many points over the years when the team hasn't turned up.

[Hibee Ryan]

Hi, just wondering how far back the stand goes? As I've got row 20 so was wondering how high I would be

[Hermit Crab]

Hi, just wondering how far back the stand goes? As I've got row 20 so was wondering how high I would be

Sure it goes up to row 28 or 29

[The Sea-gull]

This was always going to be a poorly attended game by Hibs fans.

Relatively meaningless derby if there is such as thing.

Game on TV.

Kicking off at 12pm on a Sunday.

Fans looking to save cash for a big day out for the cup final.

The vast majority of team's results and performances have been poor for almost 6 months now.

The vast majority of team's results and performances have poor in derbies for what seems like forever but particularly so in the last few years.

[WestEndHibee]

Had to pay £16 for my student ticket! Ridiculous in this day and age that a student should pay more than a tenner!




















:fishin:

[Keith_M]

If we only sell half the tickets, could we just announce it as a boycott? That's what they do whenever they have trouble selling their allocation for ER.


In fact, I believe they also had a partial boycott of the League Cup Semi and Final, accounting for the thousands of unsold tickets :wink:

[yeezus.]

Had to pay £16 for my student ticket! Ridiculous in this day and age that a student should pay more than a tenner!




















:fishin:

Same here, although I'm no longer a student I still have a valid student matriculation card :greengrin

[patlowe]

As far as I can tell we have sold out two/three sections - poor but not terrible given the circumstances.

Is it our choice or theirs to not open the other two sections?

[Billy Whizz]

We can take 20,000+ to Hampden, but can't take 3,000 to a fixture in Edinburgh????

[yeezus.]

I have a spare ticket if anyone wants it... for nowt. :cb

[hibeedonald]

I never get why people care how many fans we take.

2 of the best atmospheres at Tynie in recent years have been when we only sold half the stand.

That's only because we won, it was absolutely bouncing at the last one.

[Pretty Boy]

Don't think a crowd of about 1500 is that poor in the circumstances.

I'll be there but can understand why others won't. £22 on top of £35 already paid out for a cup final ticket, added to all the other expenses that go with a final and remembering a lot of final payments for summer holidayd are due in May means it's already an expensive month.

[Albanian Hibs]

Dad bought me a ticket so I will be there. Now, where did I put my sombrero and beach ball?!

[wearethehibs]

That's only because we won, it was absolutely bouncing at the last one.

Thats true but even up until Riordan scored the penalty we had been singing non stop.

[hibeedonald]

Thats true but even up until Riordan scored the penalty we had been singing non stop.

Yeah both were night derbies without daft kickoff times aswell

[.Sean.]

So some cannae be bothered with a Derby (and NO Derby is ever meaningless) in Edinburgh but more than happy to beg, steal or borrow a cup final ticket? :confused:


Mentality typical of the Hibs support. No wonder they call us the Wee Team, how often do Hearts struggle to sell half a stand at Easter Road?

I couldn't care less if we sell all our tickets or not i'll be there and that's all I care about.

[SteveHFC]

I live in Dalkeith and will have no problems getting there on sunday :na na:

[K.Marx]

Seems like a dissapointing turnout so far. Good chance to get it up them before the final AND has the potential to be the last derby at Tynecastle given their current financial perils :na na: was expecting close to a sell out to be honest!

I'm nightshift Saturday. First Tynecastle Derby in years. Bring it on.
Would also play a lot of the youngsters, definitely rest Sparky.

It doesn't matter how much we plead for a bigger Hibs support to turn up on Sunday we are not being given any more tickets according to the ticket office. If we sell all 3 sections then it is in effect a sell out for our end

Thought they were skint??:confused:

[Ringothedog]

Thought they were skint??:confused:

Because our sales were slow(okay really slow) it would appear that the decision was made to not send over any more tickets. I must admit I would be surprised if this was the case, but I suppose if you have a multi billionaire owner like them you can charge £5 for tickets against St Mirren and turn away business from your local rivals.:devil:

[K.Marx]

just spoke to a Jambo mate whos saying they're holding tickets back as they're looking to sell them to hearts fans? got a feeling this could be pish but at the same time they're probably spewing that they reduced prices and yet only 1500 have been shifted.

Either way, I've not missed Hearts away in 10 years so will be hoping to improve on the measly 3 victories I have witnessed :agree:

[GGTTH07]

Many we sold? Any ideas?

Long time ago, but not at tynie. Just curious, if they did sell those seats to them how would they get in. It certainly wouldn't be by the McLeod street entrance

[Ringothedog]

About 2000

[GreenCastle]

The yams can't talk about crap supports - there were gaps in the away end in the top tier last derby.

They couldn't shift their tickets for the final against St Mirren.

They couldn't fill ER for the semi in their own city.

Hibs sold out killie end this season and then took 18,000 to the semi recently.

Hibs were supposed to be dead after May 19th but it never happened! We are still here and got bigger fish to fry on May 26th this year.

Not as many as I had hoped at Tynie on Sunday - but not really bothered as not going gives them less money and we know they are DESPERATE for that right now. :greengrin

Yes. At Easter road though.

Inside the roseburn stand there is a metal roller shutter that splits the stand in half underneath 👍

Those 3 stands are all connected. You can walk all the way round them.

[lucky]

Does not surprise me we have not sold out. Fans forking out for cup final tickets in same week as yams tickets was always going to be a big ask. Family budgets are tight and many don't want to give them any money in their moment of need. It's the team that count not the fans. Wonder if they will turn up?

[3pm]

Not that I can remember?

Happened when the East was being built Stevie.

Obua scored in the last minute. Obua? Ha Ha! We put up with way too much ****!!

[scoopyboy]

Not that I can remember?

The 0-0 derby when Mixu fluffed a late penalty at Easter Road.

South stand was split whilst new West was being built.

A few weeks before the Celtic Cup Final IIRC.

Don't think I've been much angrier in a Hibs game when that went in. We were 1-0 up and cruising with 20 mins to go and then they score two late goals - both from horrendous defensive errors that only Hibs could make and only in a derby. A total joke.

How are the seats numbered at tynecastle? Does each section have its own numbers (e.g. K 1-30, L 1-30 etc), or do the numbers go across all sections (e.g. 1-150)? Basically, if I'm seat 1 in section M, am I right at the far side, or in between L and M? :greengrin

Nothing game, especially if you outside Edinburgh. Two Edinburgh teams in the bottom six, hardly even bragging rights at stake.

[NOLA]

Is it just me or is failing to sell out a Derby 2 weeks before a cup final where we are almost certain to shift 20,000+ briefs not just a wee bit embarrassing? Especially considering they've put the prices to an acceptable level for the first time in years?

Not having a go but come on Hibs get it sorted.

Have a word.

[Baldy Foghorn]

Hibs sort the fixtures for the league. Even the ones for the top 6.

Then surely we would have made to the merrick's come to us.......PETRIE!!!!!:wink:

[Baldy Foghorn]

A free cup final ticket with every derby ticket ;)

I'm not going to Final, as I am disgusted with the poor support we are taking to the Piggery:cb

Can't speak for anyone else, but they're not getting a bean off me if it might keep them afloat.

Anyway, this is surely the most meaningless derby ever? All that matters is getting out of there injury free.

[StarMan10]

Are you sure as there are no section J tickets on line in the e ticketing site just now.

He definitely said Section J, whether he misread or not i'm not sure. He bought them at Easter Road rather than online however.

I wouldn't expect it to be a sell out to be honest.

It's on the TV, terrible kick off time and it's between two clubs in the bottom six who have produced just 3 goals between them in the previous 4 fixtures!

We should still be selling out though.

4 tickets purchased today , hopefully we get a result/performance and come away injury free . Oh and everyone remember to wipe your feet on the way out of that dump !!

[brianmc]

Got to agree with you on both reasons. :agree:

I also agree- I work hard for my cash and there's no way I'm handing it over to those ****bags. I've not been to the piggery for years and the only thing that embarrasses me is this type of thread cropping up every time we play the savilles.

You are not going, your decision, but not quite sure why you would be embarrassed regarding a thread on ticket sales?

[Hermit Crab]

Did Alex miller not say that back in the early 90s?? Folk went nuts.

[Ken]

Our support home and away is getting worse by the year after continued poor league campaigns. Our support in the Scottish Cup from the quarter finals onwards has been great in the last couple of years, but I can't remember being impressed with any home attendance this season or last apart from the Dunfermline game at the end of last season and that game was crucial and had cup final incentives.

Until Hibs get it right on the park I think low crowds will continue.

I'll still be buying my season ticket every year regardless of how well Hibs are playing, I'll go to every game at Tynie (where possible) and to a few away games.

:thumbsup: Couldn't agree more. That's why I am travelling up for it!

[woody47]

I think this game epitomises what is wrong with the game in Scotland - playing the same team too often in one season.

Reasons for low turn out - This is our fifth game against the slime from the dark side of the capital, every game so far this season has been a yawn fest, we are playing on a sunday, it's at 12:00 kick off, we are giving money to keep them afloat for another week, the stadium is a dump.

Then you have a slightly bigger game in two weeks and we need to have our best 11 players fully fit so what team is going to put on the park against the sloggers?

Whilst I will be there, I just can't get excited for it unlike years ago when every derby game was something you really looked forward to.

[connerg]

Really wish I was going but have a job interview, I think the derby is going to be a lot better than recent ones with Harris involved.

[Albanian Hibs]

According to #allisbarry we have 800 tickets left from an allocation of 2600?? and Hertz have 50 left/possibly sold out now.

[Phil MaGlass]

Cannae understand why the Hibs end wont be full for this, may be the last time for a while that we play the windae lickers, and we huvnae lost tae them aw season? Cup finals not an excuse.This game should be one for all Hibs fans to give it the big GIRFUY, whether we win or lose this one. A cup final beckons, unbeaten to them this season, financially sound, a great stadium and EUROPE, what is there not to get excited aboot????

Ticket office are still selling them and will be tomorrow.

[Brooster]

Hibs are selling them in blocks. They wont start on the next block until the previous block has been sold. Maybe there was just a few left in the current block.

Me and the people I normally go with aren't going coz we don't want to give the saviles money when they need it most, and I haven't missed a derby at that hole for years. I'd guess there are a fair few with the same attitude which would explain the slow ticket sales. I can't see any other reason for it.

Add to that for the casual fan it's a meaningless early game on a Sunday and in these tough economic times there might be another higher priority game this month that they would rather spend their money on.

Having said that, I don't believe a word Barry Bawheed says as he's a big ginger wind up merchant who likes to play the victim when people take exception to his nonsense.

[K.Marx]

I've had my ticket for weeks and I'm in block K. J comes before K.

Seems like they've sold tickets in order K-L-M and have now moved back over to start selling J. I bought a ticket last week and got M.

[Gus Fring]

A mate just tried to buy tickets and the E-ticketing won't let him. He's tried all the sections for 2 seats and single seats and it just keeps giving him the "Call the ticket office directly" message.

They've needed the money for years though.

[TrinityHibs]

They've needed the money for years though.

However this is the year they said they needed a sell out for every home game to survive. 1600 short of capcity is about £30K that they will never have to spend. Thats a lot of cake bakes.

You won't got and see your team because of that??

[Bishop Hibee]

I'm going but can't blame anyone who isn't. I spent £111 on 3 final tickets and factoring in travel to hampden etc it's an expensive time to be a Hibby.

[davhibby]

If people don't want to go then it's their decision. My view on the not giving them money thing is that 50k or something isn't really going to make much of a difference to them considering they need millions. As I said though if people don't want to go it's up to them.

[sbell1875]

You won't got and see your team because of that??

Precisely my point a few comments back. Irrespective of the opposition I want to follow Hibs and I wouldn't let it stop me.

A lot of fans travel every sat from outside Edinburgh to go watch hibs, so you can't count getting a train/bus to Hamden in two weeks as an excuse. Pretty bad we can't even get 2000 fans to jump on a bloody bus for the derby but beg And steal for a final ticket.

Arbroath fans would probably take more to Forfar or Brechin derby.

They can obviously afford it though and a lot of people can't afford a hampden day out and a derby day and all that comes with it.

I'm no going and I make no excuses, I just don't want to, I stopped going a couple of years ago to tynecastle as I realised I just didn't enjoy it most of the time, if we start winning there more often I'll probably start going again.

Bet that'll really piss people off.

[green&left]

1400 is *** piss poor. Doesn't surprise me TBH, our support has been utter utter pish this season.

All very good taking 4000 to Kilmarnock for a Scottish cup tie, but generally when we're up against it or there is a bit effort involved, no-one's interested.

Money is a factor granted. But if you want to go then you will, simple really.

Not sure where you get 1400 likes. Sold out M,L,K by all accounts and selling J. The bit in bold however is dead on. People just cant be fussed for this one. Hearts will go at it like hammer and tongs, and Hibs will run around trying not to get injured.

For all that Ive decided to go! By all accounts online is no use, does anyone know when they stop selling tickets at Easter road tomorrow?

You won't be able to buy them online as they expect to post them out to internet buyers... clearly there isn't enough time to do so. Get to the shop and you'll get one no problem.

[oconnors_strip]

By policy tickets have a window of 48hours before being ready, with the game being on Sunday I would take a guess that's why you can't buy online.

I think it should be highlighted it appears Aberdeen have reduced admission prices on the last day of the season to £5 and £1. Well done to them. I wonder if we'll do the same against Dundee next week.

About time Aberdeen did that. I seem to remember a friend of mine paying £22 for entry against St. Johnstone a couple of years ago.

[S4uzee]

anyone know what time the to is open til today?

Their crowds have fallen to completely unsustainable levels, they are stuck in a crumbling wreck of a stadium, their new state of the art training facilities are a time slot on a private girls school playing field and their season is over after being dumped out of the cup again.... by us. Reducing prices to that level is an admission of failure by them.

Jenna, stand outside the Hibs end from around an hour or so before KO, and you'll probably find someone selling one.
Good luck
