Ibrox tickets queue!

[18Hibee75]

I will try my best to use this thread to update anyone who is thinking about queueing early in morning to get tickets for ibrox. I am currently in queue right now. (I know, it's very sad but really want a ticket for this match) about 25 people in the queue with me, would recommend for people to come down about 3 or 4am.

Im currently tucked up in my bed - and will be on a cruise when we visit Ibrox

Keep warm.

[rebhar]

I am also in the queue and we're adding up how many tickets as everyone arrives, currently 82 being bought between everyone here so far

[HibsNutter]

Utterly ridiculous that you should need to do this to guarantee tickets for a game. Get in the ****ing 21st century, Hibs.

[Callum7]

I'm currently watching TV I won't be going anywhere near that place. (Ibrox not ER) Just over 11 hours till the they go on sale and just out of interest what do you do for all that time?

sit, chat, eat

[RossScott1991]

Tip my hat to you guys and gals. Longest I qued was for the 2.2 Scottish cup Derby at Tynie. Was there from about 5.30am. No this early! Hope it will be worth it in end and we can have another day like that but with 3 points!

[Callum7]

sit, chat, eat

And once you're done sitting, chatting and eating?

Concentrate on holding in the dump you need after all the eating! Haha

I am also in the queue and we're adding up how many tickets as everyone arrives, currently 82 being bought between everyone here so ****eep in mind that only 700 odd are acc on sale after away season tickets are took out of allocation, and they are splitting it between TO and online/phone sales so 350odd will be on sale from TO and the other 350odd will be on sale online and over the phone

Not been an official count of how many tickets people are buying. However, right now there are around about 60-70 people in queue, if anyone is wanting to get a ticket I suggest getting down ASAP.

because there will be thousands trying online for the same amount of tickets that hundreds are trying for at the ticket office? its a lottery online. The ticketing operation needs looked at because this is a farcical way for a football club to sell tickets.

Stands not open yet. Only been 7 people joining the que since 3.45am. Only 3-4 have joined behind me since 5am. Imagine it will get busier from half 6 onwards...

Don't have a ST and don't have an away ST but would have happily stood the night for a ticket. This is a pointless post

"Just over 1000" according to Hibs

Fair play to anyone who is prepared to stand for 10 hours or so in a que for a ticket. That's dedication.

Roughly how many in the que now?

[Beefster]

Why on earth stand in a queue for tickets that can be bought online?

Because Hibs, despite explicitly encouraging folk to use online, decided to split the tickets 50/50 between the office and online thereby implicitly encouraging folk who really want to go to start queueing in person 12 hours early.

Imagine having such a system in place to avoid people being out on a cold December night to guarantee tickets for the visit to Tynecastle. That's going to be some ticket scramble with 13k season ticket holders now.

[ian cruise]

There's a good chance that those in the queue still go to those games though. The point is only valid if these are fairweather fans who only turn out for the big away trips and if they're queuing from 3am, that seems unlikely for most.

An absurd way for tickets to be sold in 2017, very poor that the Club cant come up with something better (like all other clubs) that avoids people camping in the street for hours on end. The people in charge should be embarrassed this morning.

While there is definitely a better way (loyalty points) no one forced these individuals to queue. They made the decision in the same way many other chose to stay at home and gamble on the online sale. I can't see why 5he club would be embarrassed.

Fair play to those queuing - hope they have some cover as pouring with rain in Edinburgh right now.

Hibs have the away season ticket scheme - what happens if a fan doesn't want to go..can they transfer their ticket to someone else ?

Concerts, airline tickets etc these days are bought online and you would think Hibs would just do it all online or phone.

Maybe something after the away ticket scheme like priority away game scheme with a fee may have worked have those who don't want every game coming off ticket like the away ST.

loyalty point scheme needs reintroduced but it's needs to be altered so it is fair. Loyalty should mean loyalty I.e going to games. The more games you go to, the more loyal you are. It's not rocket science. You shouldn't lose out on 100 points because you don't believe in lining a multi millionaires pockets.

Having to queue up, early in the morning, to guarantee tickets in this day in age is shambles.

[Since90+2]

Here comes a loyalty points debate :greengrin

One thing that I suggested previously was that loyalty points should not be awarded for games where demand will far outstrip supply. All that happens in that instance is the rich get richer as people will simply buy the tickets even if they cant attend in the knowledge they can punt the ticket easily and still pickup the loyalty points.

The loyalty scheme also didn't work as several games weren't allocated loyalty points.

It needs to be consistent and include semi finals etc which they didn't include last time.

There's got to be a way it can work, every other team seems to manage it with little fuss. Do agree semi finals should be included. The option to buy points without attending games is ridiculous. I could have been to Aberdeen, Dingwall and Inverness, all twice in one season and still have 40 points less than someone who only goes to Easter road but has signed up for HSL. How is that rewarding loyalty?

Totally agree with the start of your post, and the HSL bit as well, that was ill thought out when they did it, although your "millionaire" comment earlier detracts from the points you made as its (provably) just not true.

[Carheenlea]

What's interesting is that now we don't hear a peep from those who advocated the awarding of points for non attendance. Had they kept quiet in the first place then what was a pretty fair system would still be ticking along and nobody would have been forced into queuing up overnight. All that needed tweaked was a rolling system over maybe 2 years or so, but too late now, the damage has been done.

Hibs do have a loyalty scheme. It's called an away season ticket. Register for it and you get a ticket for every away game, except the ones that are PATG. No queuing in the rain, no moaning like a bitch when Ticketmaster freezes. You don't even have to pay up front, money is taken when the tickets are issued. The only downside is Hibs get nothing out of it. In fact it costs them money to administer so you could say that by not going to away games you'd be doing more for the club.

[Since90+2]

The HSL issue was done with the best intentions by the club but it was clearly a mistake. Time for people to move on from it though.

[hibee_girl]

Hibs saying on twitter vouchers have been issued and the queue is now closed.

[Hibeewilly]

Surely the club must bring back the loyalty points system. Its the fairest way to reward those supporters who travel to away games. I just don't understand why some people see it as complicated. People having to queue overnight is farcical

This. Works perfectly well at pretty much every other club.

[Johnny Clash]

There's no perfect system but at least we have the option of standing all night in a queue to guarantee a ticket or chancing your luck online - which is a bit of a lottery. I'm sat in the the Brixton sun so queuing wasn't an option. Will try online but if I'm not successful at least I'll know 1,000 passionate hibees will be there and will get right behind our team.

Still hoping all our Directors will be standing with the support - not just our Supporter's Reps!

Bring back the points system but change the name from loyalty points to attendance points or match points and only award them for attending matches.

That way the fantasists who think that buying merch from the club store, buying shares or subscriptions to Hibs TV should entitle them to priority tickets because of their own interpretation of the word 'loyalty' will know exactly where they stand.

Sounds perfect but Hibs aren't interested. I emailed the club about it and got a patronising response, stating "supporters still had issues and moans when we had loyalty points if you recall".

All the tickets should be either on sale at the stadium or online. But I do agree we need an uber fan scheme to dish out tickets

Ticketmaster phone lines for Hibs tickets is always a scam. I remember they told Hibs once that they had 60 staff members on the phones when selling our tickets and not a single person I know or on here got through to them, strange that. Every one of us got large phone bills though.

We at least get a respectable amount of tickets for Tynecastle though

1000 tickets at Ibrox is a joke, we should give them the same % at ER

[Hermit Crab]

Correct, its a pet peeve, I even posted it on that thread too.


Don't see the issue. Folk have to eat sleep and pish and nobody is skipping the queue.

[Big_Franck]

Fair enough, we've all got those. I wouldn't get too annoyed by it though, it's not like he's done you out a ticket.

[Nakedmanoncrack]

Looks like home end for me.

[Carheenlea]

Had everything set and ready from 10, but no luck. As one who goes to the majority of Hibs games that's twice now since the scrapping of Lotalty scheme that I've been unable to buy tickets. Managed to get one from another source for Tynecastle last season, but this lottery will continue for Tynecastle, Celtic and Ibrox again if we are doing well, and can't say I'm looking forward to the future attempts.

[Chuck Rhoades]

Found the online system much smoother than usual!

Bring it on.

[Hermit Crab]

All the tickets should be either on sale at the stadium or online. But I do agree we need an uber fan scheme to dish out tickets

Is that not called the Away season ticket?

Did you get one?

Nope

Nope

Bring it back I say, much fairer system than one at present

Not really as some can't always make every away game but it could be integrated with a points system.

[Hermit Crab]

There must still be tickets locked in online, GW3 has been removed but GW2 and GW1 remain on the site.

[Ginger Gehagan]

Got in at 11 and 2 tickets bought in GW1. Can't ******* wait!!!

[K.Marx]

I would recommend people to keep trying to add tickets to their basket even when there's saying none available. Club tweeted it was sold out at 11:19 and I got tickets in GW3 at 11:22 after 12 mins of constantly trying to add 2 tickets to the different sections. Something to bare in mind for the Tynecastle scramble, folks.

Email address, i want a door number so i can kick some ass, I was going to Ibrox when there was only a few hundred of us and this is how we are treated, I will do f***ing time at some point.

Yip, i never got one. :greengrin

[Dunbar Hibee]

Devestated.

I know the game isn't on telly, but do we think any Hibs boozers in Leith would be streaming it?

[RossScott1991]

Missed out on getting a ticket today, waited in queue from 10.40 onwards.

Ohwell, harp & castle or four in hand for me now to watch it!

just to clarify id imagine they will show it through rangers TV ?

[green with envy]

Why on earth stand in a queue for tickets that can be bought online?

Standing in the queue guaranteed me a ticket thankfully. Not so sure that would have been the case by taking a chance online.

[matty_f]

Doesn't the away season ticket effectively solve the problem of those that go to all the away games getting a guaranteed ticket for fixtures like this?

Loyalty points wouldn't necessarily have prevented a scramble today, as we'd likely have more people in the band for points than we do tickets. If they had more points they'd likely go to every away game and then in that case, the away season ticket is the answer.

[sarah_hibernian]

Got 1 ticket for GW1 A1 and 1 for GW1 L3. Anybody fancy swapping for 1 closer to either of those? or Is it a free for all?
I cant remember

You just move the bracket for the number of tickets available. I remember us playing Dumbarton. 800 tickets available so they set the points so that for 1 day, 700 people had first dibs on the tickets. Then they released them for the next bracket.

That's fine but the highest tier will be the people who do to all the away games, so you're into away season ticket territory.

[Craigmount Hibs]

I think the home end is sold out too.

[hibsfan]

Result! Just chanced it one last time and bagged two tickets next to each other at 12:23! They must have been sat in someone's basket and not processed or something! Ya dancer!

A free for all? Whens the last time you were at Ibrox? Allocated seating I'm afraid, any deviation from that and the stewards will take pleasure in chucking you out and they are all *******s.

Could always run a loyalty scheme alongside the away season ticket? Means fans get rewarded for going to games regularly but those who don't want the hassle/lottery can go for the away season ticket option.

There would be no need for an away season ticket if the points were awarded correctly.

For example I couldn't get right to my seat for the home game against hearts and just stood in the row in front. I dunno how I messed this up.

Exactly. The brackets were set by the amount of tickets available. Yes people still miss out but at least you don't have 12k all eligible to buy around 800 tickets and the fans that attend most get first dibs.

As for the away season ticket argument - myself and my wife signed up to it originally as we tend to go to 95% of games. But with going away on holiday in September and having other things planned we'd have missed a few games so cancelled it. Don't mind missing a home game as hibs get the money from my season ticket anyway but not keen to just waste money on away tickets i can't get to.

Managed to get the tickets we needed for this anyway but i feel for the ones that would be in that top bracket and end up missing out.

[matty_f]

You might not need an away season ticket but you'd still have fewer tickets than you need to meet demand.

[Big_Franck]

There are still single seats left in GW3. I just tried to get 2 tickets again but couldn't get 2 anywhere near each other. These were just in my basket and have been released:

T 79
Q 79
N 69

All in section GW3.

[Danderhall Hibs]

You might not need an away season ticket but you'd still have fewer tickets than you need to meet demand.

But you'd just set the points level to match the tickets available? eg 900 tickets and 900 folk have 350+ points. Any left then go to the next bracket (eg 340-350) and so on?

[Col_0762]

Those who go to every or most would still get a ticket before those who go now and again as they would have the required points. The supporters lucky enough to get one in the next bracket get their point. However, those going every week will still have more points than those who only want to go to the big games so maybe demand will outstrip supply, however the only way to change that is go to more games. Really simple to work. Remember the last time we played in the PL, there was always plenty tickets.

I think that works in theory but in practice there's unlikely to be enough time to split into small bands to give everyone fair opportunity to buy tickets in their window.

[ben johnson]

Just got 2 singles. Not liking it if you put 2 required. Got 2 singles at 12.
35 in GW3

[yonder1875]

I managed to get a single ticket as I did with Hearts away last year, I'm going to the game with a group but as with Hearts away last season I only had luck getting a single seat. Don't think getting them in groups of 4+ really works when it's this frantic.

[Billy Whizz]

Matty, I take two 10 year olds to most away games, apart from Ibrox and Parkhead etc. I'm an away season ticket holder and they aren't.
I have to go into the TO for every away game they go too, and swap my tickets over so we can sit beside us. Under the old loyalty scheme, I'd have waited until the points range we were in, and then boy
This is not all about Ibrox,Tynie, and Parkhead, but this causes me problems for all away games where are pre allocated

[Carheenlea]

I'm having doubts if this was indeed split 50/50 for campers and online sales..
If the club are making a point of encouraging fans to buy online, then they either make more available online or to simply make it online sales only.

[Hermit Crab]

Still has GW1 and GW3 on the website showing available, you just can't add seats to basket though.

[Winston Ingram]

So you want to pick and choose when you get priority over others?

Not what i said at all

[beensaidbefore]

Here comes a loyalty points debate :greengrin

One thing that I suggested previously was that loyalty points should not be awarded for games where demand will far outstrip supply. All that happens in that instance is the rich get richer as people will simply buy the tickets even if they cant attend in the knowledge they can punt the ticket easily and still pickup the loyalty points.


Exactly.

No issue with rewarding loyalty. But the old system had flaws. If you don't attend you shouldn't get the points for buying a ticket.

[BegbieHSC]

I remember threads on here last year constantly bitching about the loyalty points system. I thought it worked quite well.

Fans clamoured to have it removed, and it was. The club listened. Now the same fans are bitching that their loyalty isn't being rewarded through priority tickets.

We evidently need some form of system which makes it easier for those who regularly attend away games get some form of advantage when purchasing high-demand tickets. With record season tickets, it's obviously harder without a loyalty point system. But seriously, if you whinged before about the loyalty points system, and sent poison pen letters to Dempster, wake up and smell the coffee.

The only fans that clamoured to have it removed were some of the folk that dinnae go to almost every away game.

That was the problem, those that didn't go to every game complained and the club for some reason listened, add in the bogus HSL bonus too and you've got a riot.

1 Login to e tickets.

3 Click account history.

5 Click that tab and it should bring up a screen with your Ibrox ticket details on it.

You can't really take into account folk working and call it unfair. You could just as easily miss out on the required loyalty points because you had to miss a match through work.

[bathhibby]

Most people work Mon to Fri ( not all ) Loyalty points was the fairest way to regulate tickets for non away season ticket holders . But because a few bumped their gums , hundreds at loyal supporters now miss out , unless they can camp out for tickets .

It would be interesting to learn how many were actually available firstly after the players comps, the away ST (which we know) and then how many were allocated via voucher in the queues. Looks like very few ended up available to buy online, the avenue the club encouraged everyone to utilise.
