Lost my wallet at some point between the shops at Lochend and the FF Upper tonight. Only noticed at the end of the game. Just wondering if anyone found it and handed into the club? Had my season ticket etc in it.

Cheers

If it had your season ticket then it must have been lost inside the ground.

Didn’t sit in my ST seat tonight and used a ticket on my phone. Nightmare.

The steward told me I was the 3rd person to report a missing wallet in the FF Upper!

Feels like too much of a coincidence..

Pickpockets at work?

Pickpockets at work?

Surely not, but I guess you never know.

Frustrating thing for me is I last remember having it after buying something out the shops at Lochend on the way to the stadium so not sure exactly where I’ve lost it. Only noticed when I got to the bottom of the stairs at the end of the game.

Curious as to what pocket people keep their wallets in?

Mine is fight against the thigh on my right hand jeans pocket.

A pickpocket would have to be mighty deft.

Only lost my wallet once in my life. It was on a night out at University and I was absolutely leathered. Guess that has had an affect on me.

Same pocket for me, almost impossible to take I reckon.

Same pocket for me.

Had a group of gypsies try to steal mine when I was in Malaga many years ago.

They were very clever about it, the mother deliberately wedged her pram in the door to a restaurant and I was leaving so tried to un-wedge the door to help her, because I was stretching across the pram one of her other kids tried to slip my wallet out my pocket.

They nearly got away with it but I moved at the last minute and felt my wallet being removed.

The kid was around 7 - they scampered off pretty quickly when I lost my cool.

Was that before or after the Singing Section guys move to the FF Lower.

:hmmm:











Aw come on, it's a joke!

Would be better if wallets had chains on them so they could hook onto your
Jeans 4 wallets isn't bad luck and more like pickpockets at work

Sounds very much like some dodgy stuff going on, far too many people in the same area losing their wallets, I always put mine in my front pocket as it's harder to get at.

I have never lost a wallet in my life as I don't use one.

They are such an invitation to thieves. Use your pockets instead.

I don’t have enough pockets to carry what is in my wallet. There is no invitation on my wallet either.

Wrap an elastic band round it. That way it will catch and you'll feel someone trying to take it

Hopefully the lost wallets are found but does seem like it could be pickpocketing unfortunately.

Never thought about before now but a wallet with a chain attached to a belt loop is not a bad idea.https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=wallet+on+chain&sprefix=wallet+on+&ref=nb_sb_ss_i_2_10

Some ****bags around if stolen. Make sure all bank cards cancelled with contactless payments these days they can go to town on them quickly.

Be a nightmare to lose wallet with debit cards etc in.

Really disappointing if this has happened inside the stadium and a Hibs fan is responsible for stealing from other Hibs fans.

Is there CCTV in the concourse areas?

Suppose easy to do queuing for the delights served at the kiosks

Possibly not a Hibs fan but a professional who bought a ticket.

Don`t you need to be on the database to buy a ticket these days?

Weird.

My son lost his wallet last night too. FF Upper.
Searched the stand after, and reported it to the stewards and to the lass at the desk in the main stand, who promised to phone us with news whether or not it was found.*
Phoned his missus to get bank cards cancelled.

Got back to the car to find it stuck in the side pocket, where he'd put it. :rolleyes:

I'll have a look, but I don't think there were another three there.





*She did too. Good stuff.

I see another post on twitter about a lost wallet. Not sure if it's someone on this thread or another person. All very odd.

Definitely sounds like a group of pickpockets

Got notification from the bank to say that someone tried to use my card in Albion Grocer for £8.75 at 2pm today. Strange they’ve waited til today to try.

Not sure what that does to the pickpocket theory! Think I must have lost it after leaving the shops before going to the stadium.
