Ticket sales - Hamilton game

[madhibby]

Tickets available:

West 298
Famous Five 120
East 304

Total 722

Probably these areas will be sold out by Saturday with a couple of lower tiers likely to be open in the South Stand to enable all Hibbies who want to be at the game to be able to get a ticket.

Hamilton have the smallest away support in the top tier so a good crowd (tickets sold not attendance!) will be over 17,000.

We should be looking to give them a real going over in front of a big crowd. Time for the team and support to step up now. Yes, Celtic, though stuttering, will come good, but there's nobody else that massively impressive. Let's get into it.

Big, big game. A win takes us just two points away from top spot. No easy task though as Hamilton made things very tricky for us last season.

Unless Hearts win or draw.

Taking my 5 year old daughter to her first game.

Unless Hearts win or draw.

Which is the following day , so the win takes us 2 points behind Hearts 👍

You are not wrong, but - if we win - would much rather have the points on the board then sit back and (hopefully) watch those two kick the ***** out of each other - with added tsunamis / neutron bombs as well - the following day.

It's a point worth making because the narrative can change remarkably quickly in football. We beat Hamilton and the yams lose at Ibrox (though, granted they'll fancy their chances, especially if Potter ditches his usual 11 men behind the ball tactics there), we then have a two-week international break with us sitting just two points behind them and much of the talk during that time will be about whether Hibs can take over at the top.

Of course, we could end up losing to Hamilton and the yams win at Ibrox to go eight clear but I prefer to take the optimistic outlook...

I was literally thinking your last sentence as I read your first! A lot of folk as usual are taking the likes of Hamilton as a gimme, which given they turned us over last year displays a pretty short memory.

[Frazerbob]

I wonder if the AUOB March will impact on the crowd?

[Steven79]

It starts at 1:00 and finishes at Holyrood (I'm going to both) so shouldn't affect it too much.

We should of course be going on the basis Hamilton will beat us.

[WhileTheChief..]

Can’t describe this as a big, big game.

It’s a run of the mill league game against a team that will be fighting relegation.

Unlike last season this will be an easy 3 points.

[Elephant Stone]

Ha, a whole 24hrs. Fanbloody tastic

Do you get enjoyment out of following Hibs and posting on this forum? Your posts would suggest that there are probably better ways you can make use of your time.

[SirDavidsNapper]

I think we're all slightly concerned by that but the players and manager will be all too aware of what happened last season. Our home form is incredible so we should be confident without being disrespectful to Hamilton.

Any need? He made a fair point.

That’s my plan too but I suspect the huge numbers expected may make it tight.

[Elephant Stone]

We've got a thread whipping up a bit of optimism and excitement about the fact that we're a ball hair off the top of the league and we've got someone who appears to have come over to suck the fun right out of it. There are four or five folk on this forum who seem determined to do this as often as they can.

[worcesterhibby]

your speaking a very different language to old Hermit-face.

[Diclonius]

Being closer to Hearts will affect them mentally, whether or not they think it will. Remember when we went top a few years ago and the BBC assumed it was "temporary" because Celtic would win at Parkhead?

[essexhibee]

How many do Hamilton usually bring through out of curiosity?

Hardly any. Lucky if they even sell out half a section

[Keith_M]

Let's be honest, we'll have to start converting more of the (many) chances we make to actually give some team a 'good going over'. With Maclaren out for a while, I think I'll be happy if we can just scrape wins in the meantime.


Unless, of course, we're about to be surprised with the signing of a new striker in the next few days...

[SirDavidsNapper]

Around 30/40 i'm sure

[Keith_M]

I thought that was their home support.

[Sir David Gray]

Probably slightly more than Runavik but less than Asteras.

As did ES.

Agreed. Judging by the highlights I saw of Hamilton losing at home to Dundee the scoreline was very flattering to Dundee, but we beat Dundee comfortably at Dens the previous week so we SHOULD see off Accies. As you say, Lennon will ensure there's no complacency and if we can put away even a couple of the chances we normally create we are more than good enough to win comfortably. An early goal or two would be very welcome.

[cabbageandribs1875]

50k expected on Saturday.

[Lancs Harp]

Asteras averaged 1842 in the Greek league last season. So pretty Hamiltonesque in that respect

Hamilton have the smallest away support in the top tier so a good crowd (tickets sold not attendance!) will be over 17,000.

Now a day later just under 500 tickets left to sell excluding the South Stand which is likely to be available for Hibs fans on match day.

Stilll to sell
West 196
Famous Five 101
East 198

Total 495

[hfc rd]

Runavik had more supporters than Molde.


I was hugely suprised with the Molde support that night. Thought they would have brought a similar number to what Brondby brought with them.

Agree, Runavik did bring the most out of the 3 clubs

Molde visited during the Edinburgh Festival so that would have made accommodation difficult and expensive at short notice.

These will sell out on Friday leaving the South for walk ups.

[Aim Here]

Strangely, there aren't any walk-up tickets for the away end, if the Hamilton Accies site is to be believed: "Our understanding is that tickets will not be available on the day"

Which means if their travelling support turns up without reading that, he or she might just buy a ticket anyways, and end up mingling with the home crowd in the South Stand, Where's Wally-style.

Didn’t think of that. Explains it now.

Plus majority of them would have expected Asteras to win the tie with them being the seeded team.

HC, you know that a win does put us 2 points within hearts but it also puts pressure on them knowing we’re catching them up.

We'll still have the usual gaps in the FF lower but it'll still be a great crowd. A far cry from a few years ago where a game against Hamilton would be lucky to sell 11,000 tickets.

For all those who moan at our board, owners and chairman etc...how can you argue with what they've achieved? It looks like we're finally punching our weight after all these years.

[jodjam]

Not sure why you are asking again as Lichtiehibee gave you all the times on another thread

[Dashing Bob S]

East - 73 available
FF - 74
West - 82

[madhibby]

These will sell out on Friday leaving the South for walk ups.

Tickets now left (before Hibs make the South Stand available to Hibs fans which I assume will be the case on Saturday):

West 80
Famous Five 79
East 76

Total 235

Hibs also sometimes find more tickets for the “home” stands if there is a sell out - presumably players and corporate areas not filled?

[tonyrougier123]

Half of section 26 in the south is grey already! big crowd,hopefully everyone has their singing voices warming up.👍🙌🙌🙌

Our first season in the Championship under Stubbsy we were getting four figure crowds against quite a few of the smaller clubs. Massively changed days.

Have they maybe removed a section of tickets for sale at the Pods? It's just that the seats shown as no longer available are very evenly from the top half of that section.

Think your spot on to be honest 😂👍,im a glass half full kinda person.

[offshorehibby]

That's my seat up for grabs on site in section 41 now.

[Golden Bear]

Could be a couple available in the West Upper tomorrow morning. Travel difficulties in getting anywhere near ER is the reason.

[HH81]

I'm coming up in the car tomorrow. Where is good for parking? Bringing a Sheffield Wednesday fan but we need to park all day as sightseeing first.

Won’t happen until Sunday though.
