Derby tickets

[Diclonius]

Assuming we get an allocation - can we put these to a ballot too instead of the first-come, first-served approach of recent seasons? It seems much more fair and less hassle for everyone involved.

I'd b happy for all season ticket holders to go into a ballot, but not non season tickets holders, I say that because I can never get lucky wi a ticket for an away derby despite goin to a good few away games throughout the season, loyalty points system is desperately needed,
There will b folk who get a derby away ticket and itll b their only away game of the season, it's a joke

[B.H.F.C]

I think it would be a good idea for them to use the ballot system. Was a really simple process and saves you having to make sure you were available at the exact moment they went on sale.

[Alex1875]

Surely if we are at the point where you're asking for a ballot.. it should be some form of loyalty points?

Not saying you specifically, but I don't see why folk should get access to a derby ticket via ballot over folk who travel up and down the country every week.

Tickets IMO should be done on some form of points system so those who put in the most effort going to your Dundee, Livi, County etc get first dibs on derby, Ibrox and cup final tickets etc.

Not normally an issue for most away games but the system would ensure fairness when required. Worked fine for most last time - was only the folk who didn't have enough points that moaned about it.. [emoji1184][emoji1184][emoji1184]

I would also prefer loyalty points, but if that isn't the case then a ballot is the way to go. Right now the only people the system prioritises is people who work from home or know how to manipulate the online ticketing system.

Personally, I'd just implement a system where priority is given to anyone who went to Tynecastle in the early 2010s when we were ***** and never sold out! :wink:

The only time it’s beneficial to you Hibs being crap is going into a Derby at tynecastle as you’re almost guaranteed to get a ticket if you want one so it’s a ‘shame’ we’re on form as it’ll be a nightmare to get tickets! Fingers crossed I don’t miss out, not missed a derby there since 2007.

It’s at times like these where you appreciate the away season ticket, no more having to worry about whether the website puts you into the queue in time for a ticket

People who attended the Casper game should be guaranteed derby tickets for life. There was about 12 of us there that night.

Nope, I think all those that couldn’t be arsed going the numerous times we sold half a stand because we were pish and it was likely we’d get scudded should be bottom of the bundle IMO

That aside a ballot is fairer since we don’t have a loyalty points system, just unsure how it would work with group bookings etc.

I went to every Derby at tynie since 2007 watching many abject performances, until loyalty points were scrapped in 2016/17 and have NEVER been able to get a ticket since despite trying every time.

Def something not right there if others are managing to get tickets for tynie every time.

I tried and failed a few times after loyalty points were scrapped and by pure chance I managed to get a spare nearer the time. A complete lottery online and as has been mentioned a ballot is fairer as not everyone has a chance to sit by a phone or screen when they’re at work

[Daniel 1875]

One thing I would say is it looks like the online ticketing system has been improved so hopefully there will be less chance of getting randomly bumped out of the queue after waiting patiently to get in.

[CMurdoch]

A ballot sounds perfect but I would tweek it slightly in that games at Tynecastle should be a rolling ballot for season ticket holders which would ensure that all season ticket holders would get their equal share of away Derby tickets I.e. all those who get a ticket for the next away Derby drop to the bottom of the pile and then work their way up until it's their time to attend again. As others have said it would also stop us having to fight each other online for them.

If you do a ballot for this game then you'd need to do it for Ibrox and Parkhead, or any major away game with a small, or highly sought after allocation of tickets.

Lost count the amount of times the derbies actually even went to general sale. Never understood it, just not going incase we get beat.

[lord bunberry]

Would people successful in any potential ballot be happy to miss out on the second derby at tynie? I’d rather it was done in the usual way, a ballot could end up with a load of fans not creating any atmosphere.

[wookie70]

I think it should be those who saw the equaliser in the Joe McBride game.

I have been lucky and got a ticket for all the derbies I wanted to attend. However I think loyalty points is the only fair way. Ballots are as unfair as first come first serve imo and the club should be doing everything to encourage loyalty. It isn't difficult but then again we seem to struggle with ticketing in general but other clubs seem to manage loyalty schemes easily enough

[Since90+2]

Surely it's a good thing we now have more people who want to attend a derby? Reading some of the posts here it seems some folk preferred it when the stand was 75% full.

[Antifa Hibs]

Except thats nonsense though eh.

'Cos first off all the corporates will get a ticket if they want one, then Hibs staff/players will get a few. After that myself, or the group I go with every week, not one of us have missed out on any ticket that we've wanted whether it was for Ibrox or Tynie.

Away season tickets seem to massively over-exaggerate demand for games and have done. Not sure why, to massage their own ego or something....?

That was a sore one. Did they not score after about 3 seconds or something? It felt like it.

I remember Rob Jones going absolutely nuts at Andy after the 2nd, I'm not sure it was all that helpful really.

The derbies that season were a total **** show in the league. 2-0 up and drew 2-2 at ER, 2-0 down, got back to 2-2 and lost 3-2 at Christmas, beaten 1 nil by a late goal at ER then that 2-0 game at Tynecastle.

The LC game was good though.

[JXM73]

First off I'd bin the away season tickets in favour of a loyalty points system, those in the AST would of course get a bump in points for starters as their loyalty should be rewarded...might stop those that sell their tickets and dont go to to away games bar the obvious...

Failing that ballot would be fair...

Doubt there is a huge market in away tickets bar 3 teams…the AST guys have to buy a ticket for every single league away match so it’s not like it’s a cunning ruse for a second income stream!

I also don’t think a ballot makes sense as how do you exclude those that have no interest in attending? You would need to have some sort of opt in process at the very least.

For a run of the mill derby I also wonder just how many people who want tickets don’t get one…sure there will be a few but I’m minded to think that there is not thousands locked out each time.

Isn't that how the reduced-capacity ballots worked earlier this season? You had to apply, they didn't just chuck every ST holder's name in.

Ahh that will be why I didn’t get a ticket then [emoji1787][emoji12]

[Mikey_1875]

It’s not a bad idea but the ballot is pretty inflexible and I wouldn’t be sure how to approach it when applying. For example if I am going in to buy four derby tickets on the current system I would first of all look for four together, then if that was unsuccessful split it into two groups of two, and then down the line until last resort where I just get one ticket for myself. A ballot system wouldn’t let you do that so wouldn’t be sure whether to go for 4 or nothing, or whether a single would be better but sitting on my own unnecessarily. I don’t like the way previous ballot results are drip fed over 24 hours either but that could maybe be rectified.

Loyalty points are definitely the way forward but from a personal point of view i’d keep it the same until we can introduce them. I can get on the internet and have time to purchase during the day though so it’s easier for me to say.

Wait till Budge announces it's £40 a pop, you'll get one no bother.

:agree:Thats about the only 2 things I remember from that game. Not even sure we had a shot at goal.

Typical derby season where we should have picked up way more points. First game in total control til Zibby shipped 2 goals. Second game Shiels equaliser back in the game then his mad red card cost us. Third game we were all over them, Hearts got away with murder wrestling Rob Jones at every corner then they snuk a jammy winner. Shambles.

Never once since the loyalty system stopped have I managed to get a ticket online.

I’m not 100% sure that’ll be the case, I think it’s more likely they may restrict walk up fans as they’ll, like us, be able to accommodate those fans affected by the red zone in their own 3 stands.

I can’t see them giving us half a stand as they’d likely have that reciprocated in the New Year Derby and they won’t want that either.

Just under 20k it holds, less a couple of hundred for the ‘red zone’ - and 3500 in the away end. Would leave around 15/16k hearts, they have 12k season tickets holders so still plenty to give to general sale. Can’t see it being anything other than a full stand either.

[Iggy Pope]

It’s old news, but the first Scottish Cup game I had missed in 36 years was the 2017 tie at Tynie, right about the time LOYALTY POINTS (ssssh) were quashed and we went back to the lottery frenzy of online application with no public ticket office sales.
I said at the time it should be a ballot and discussed it with Dempster at the time. She gave me a lot of pish.

Everyone that wants to be at a Derby can’t be at the Derby. Make it a fair draw for everyone that does.

(And before the ASTs come booting in, yes you should absolutely come first. One each).

[weecounty hibby]

Agree with the folk who are saying it should be a ballot like the Ross County game. I have been to Tinycastle quite a few times but when it is during work hours and tickets go within about half an hour I have no chance of getting one as I just can't get logged on. ASTs obvs get theirs

I assume you're making a snide point about a previous thread on the affordability of football. The difference between a Category B home game against Livi and Hearts away is obvious (even though £31 is still disgraceful and it should be capped at £20). It was actually shown by the pretty poor attendance we had on Saturday for a game of sizeable magnitude

Their 'red zone' season ticket holders have already been told they won't be in the Roseburn according to JKB so looking like a full end. Well minus the corner flag blocks and if they decide to put a Sky box in their again.

A game at tynie vs hearts isn’t the same as a home game against Livingston. But you already know that.

But it’s still far higher than folk were making out theyd spend and expect others to protest regarding - even for cat A.

What’s being argued here? Scottish football, and most Hibs games, is overpriced and has been for decades IMO. Derbies are the most desirable fixtures for fans. The Livingston game was overpriced & the Derby is overpriced. Is that not about the long and short of it?

One - people were being actively encouraged not to attend, while the other is accepted that people will turn up and pay. Nobody will be saying ‘I hope the Roseburn stand is empty’ at the derby, or ‘we should boycott/protest at the derby’ - while that was the message from some last week.

Councils have nothing to do with it now. Pre covid they’d normally have gone on sale around Wednesday or something. There’s no problem if they go on sale before the weekend

We’re getting the full end. One of my mates who sits in the “red zone” has been moved 16 rows back in the same section instead.

Looks like they will be restricting walk ups for their own fans instead.

The Red Zone is the area behind the dugouts to protect the players/coaching staff. We must be putting our subs in the goals at the Roseburn for the duration of the match if the red zone is being moved there.

I don’t have a season ticket this year for the first time in a long time so will def be trying to get a couple but I really hope this is an error. It devalues the season ticket if those who bought one don’t get first crack. It’s why I was against loyalty points. The season ticket is the clubs number 1 source of income and anything that devalues that is a bad thing in my book.

They might block off a few seats in each corner. Blocking off both sections in H and M is overkill to be honest and hearts loss financially.

Why do Hibs put these on sale at 10am?

Such an awkward time if you are working.

I know not everyone works 9-5pm or even works but surely a large amount of the fan base find it hard to access tickets at this time?

They could even have put some on sale 10am and some on sale 7pm or tomorrow.

I was refreshing from 9am, didn't have a queue and got tickets at 9.57. So my analogy was correct.

No but when you changed device it seen you as a new customer


Nope again.... ticketmaster uses Queue ID so you can transfer your place in the queue to a different device.

Purchased before 10am, had a tab open since 9:15am where I wasn't in any queue, refreshed it at 9:57am and got my ticket

You're not going to accept defeat on this. You were literally "in" the website. You then used your queue from your phone, your laptop or other device was already in the website. I know because I was too.

That's not accurate, the que is for access to the website not the hearts tickets. The website doesn't close

So explain this.... if i try to login to the website on a ANOTHER new device, why does it put me in a queue?

The queue is to access the site. The queue is to stop the overall site traffic from causing a site crash.

Think you just got lucky, I was "in" the site from 9am same as you but got punted out at 9:50! Back of the queue!

Fair enough, i should have waited.

That's very bad luck. See ABZ post above too...refreshing should've kept you in.

How can you buy tickets before they were released?
