LC Final Tickets

[green day]

So we will have hibs fans mixed in with old firm fans
that should be interesting

Those debenture seats at Hampden were generally bought along tribal lines - i.e. those with a "Celtic" mind bought at the other end, while more "Rangersey" fans bought at the end we have been allocated.

It means that they are guaranteed a ticket for big cup games involving their team.

It is - the one - advantage of us being in the "Rangers" end this time.

[Keith_M]

£40/£22



Thanks

[hibbysam]

This just seems utterly bizarre ... on what planet for any event are the best seats in the house and the most expensive tickets held back until the cheaper tickets have gone, am I just being naive or is it not the case that the most expensive tickets are the first to go on sale for the likes of concerts etc, or at the very least put on sale in conjunction with the cheaper tickets.

Irrespective of that, as others are saying Hibs can't treat this as any sort of reason to be grateful to the SPFL, the bottom line is that we should have been given the chance to sell half the tickets from the word go and far from this being a concession from the SPFL it is nothing less than a tacit admission that they got this badly wrong from the outset and no amount of rubbish about being fair to Celtic fans can hide it .... Doncaster cant be allowed to worm his way out of this.

The upshot of the whole thing should be that in future both clubs no matter their size should be offered the chance to sell half the stadium for a cup final be that Scottish or League cup and only when it is shown that isn't possible should extra tickets be offered to the bigger club ..... The fact is most clubs in Scotland outwith the ugly sisters would decline the chance to sell 23,000 tickets from the outset, with only us, Hearts, Aberdeen, Dundee United and perhaps a couple of others on a good day likely to take up the offer ... if Doncaster / the SPFL had realised that perhaps they would have thought twice before making their stupid decision and creating this mess.

100%. And going by every email he’s sent it all seems centred around ‘clubs maximising revenue’ - therefore if Hibs want 50/50 then we get the chance, if we sell to a point that there can be no returns, then we stump up for the unsold tickets. It’s not difficult. If Ross county don’t want full tickets then they can get what they ask for.

[jacomo]

Would just like to say a massive thanks and well done to all who not only kept up the buzz to sell tickets but put the heat on the spfl, wrote emails to whoever would listen got on radio talk shows etc.. outstanding work from fellow hibs fans [emoji1433][emoji1433][emoji1433] now let’s get the rest of these tickets sold [emoji1544]

Agree, but ridiculous this was even an issue.

Scottish football is not a level playing field and the authorities can’t even see it.

With this extra allocation are we now at parity with Celtc or are they still getting more tickets than us?

[Since452]

Each to their own but I def wouldn't consider those upper tier seats the best in the house - too high up.


I've been up there a couple of times. Wouldn't go by choice.

They'll be getting an additional allocation in the South Upper as well, so will still have roughly 8,000 more than us.

Same mate. The only worse seats in the house for me are the ones towards the bottom of the East and West.

They still get more.

They will have (basically) the identical bit on the other side of South upper as we were given yesterday.

So, in summary, Celtics allocation is same as us everywhere now except the North Stand which is still 100% Celtic.

They will still have more. We'll have 19.5k Hibs fans there tops leaving them around 25-30k.

[greenginger]

These seats are owned by Debenture holders who have s period of time to decide if they will take up Their seat and if demand isn’t there they can apply for other seats
I say this as have watched several semi finals from up there with my son and the tickets were bought fir me by a Celtic Debenture Holder who didn’t want to go to hibs Aberdeen semi final for eg
Clearly these are in the main owned by old firm fans who were used to getting to finals year on year
Not sure of exact time scale for that to happen but assume the extra seats we are getting are debenture seats that haven’t been taken up

How long will these debentures continue to run. We’re they sold by Queens Park or is it an SFA scheme to generate income now they own Hampden ?

[GreenCastle]

Celtic will still have around 6-7k more fans at the stadium than us.

I assume they will have asked which debentures want tickets then give them seats centrally then any others (2,000) allocated to Hibs in other sections closest to Hibs support.

As others have a said too Hibs should lift the restrictions on how many each client ref can buy. I wouldn’t be surprised if folk swap tickets so they can sit in groups rather than the single seats several bought.

They were part of the fund raising scheme to rebuild the South Stand,so have been in place for 20(?) years.

Presumably retaining them was part of the agreement when Queens Park sold Hampden to the SFA.

Same scenario as Murrayfield debentures.

They get passed on in wills from Lawyers / Surgeons to their entitled chinless son or daughter so they can take their public school mates to the rugger.

Celtc will have at least 10k more than us. The stadium holds 52k, we will have just under 20k.
I agree with lifting the number that can be sold per client reference but that also increases the risk of tickets falling into the wrong hands

[Bristolhibby]

Been doing it for ages, but every time I buy I ticket for friends and family I create an account with a CRN for them and then tie it to my friends and family list.

Good practice for times like now.

[Hermit Crab]

These extra tickets went on sale yet?


EDIT, its 12pm they are on sale.

[gbhibby]

Emailed the club about swapping tickets, putting purchased tickets for west stand back onto the system for resale and purchasing South Stand tickets in their place. They advised me that this is not possible.

Yes Celtic will have close on 50% more than us. Remember the corporate/sponsors section, basically the middle third of the South stand, was 90% dour sevco fans in 2016 well it'll be 90% celts this time.

I wouldn’t worry. You’ll get your tickets within minutes I would guess

I was about 600th in the queue on Tuesday and it cleared in no time

[Hermit Crab]

Tickets have appeared in P1, P2 and P3 again. The who's South upper is on sale to us. A bit frustrating that the NST holders get the best seats but hey ho, at least I've got a ticket.

[wookie70]

Can you return or swap tickets. That 30 minute queue and then 5 minutes of buying tickets a wee while back seems a bit of a waste now I can get far better premium tickets for the same price. Is this something the TO can do if I phone them

Thanks, I thought that would be the case. Tried phoning before I saw this and as usual it is voicemail. At least I can stop wasting my time. Absolutely no fault of our club but what a complete shambles in terms of ticketing. If we sell out then ST holders will have bought seats with a worse view that those who are non ST holders and if we don't sell out we will have empty premium seats while Hibs ST holders sit in worse parts of the ground at the same price for a ticket. I hope the club are making continued protestations about the way ticketing has been handled. Great news if you are a Hibs supporter who wasn't really that bothered about attending the final initially but now want the best seats in the house.

The restrictions seem to have been lifted on how many a reference number can buy. No idea to how many but I can now add tickets to the wallet again. Wouldn’t think there would be an issue with buying tickets and giving the ones you’ve already got back to the club to resell.

Doesn't look like many sold yet as big blocks of available seats close to halfway line.

I think they may take a while to sell. Everyone who desperately wanted one now has one so will just be folk adding on. They will sell out but will just take a bit longer.

[Bristolhibby]

There are some fantastic seats there.

I was in the South Upper for the 2007 cup final. Escalator up to my padded seats.

Amazing.

You will still have a client reference number, the login’s all changed a while ago. You will 100% still have an account, you’ll just have to muck about with it a wee bit. I can’t remember exactly what it is you have to do, but it’s not a new hibs ticket account, it’s something to do with ticketmaster I think. Someone else might know what to do.

It won't let you because you'll be a newly created account so it'll think you're one of the unwashed!
All you do is look for people outside your network to allocate to, enter your old client ref number and surname, and allocate the tickets to yourself Sevco style.

You can't, the club have already told some supporters who have asked that this is not possible. You'd have to buy another set of tickets for the SU assuming you have enough references then hope you could sell or return the WS tickets to the club.

Be embarrassing if we don't sell these out. Still think we will though!

Shouldn’t detract from the decision not to initially allocate the ticket split 50/50.

Our attendances at Hampden finals more than merited us being given the respect to be offered half the stadium. Will be pretty much sold out and if it’s a hundred odd remaining unsold then it’s neither here nor there with the original arguement.

If anyone should be embarrassed it should be Doncaster and his Weegie-centric SFL for their shambolic handling of the ticketing.

Totally agree.

Maybe embarrassing wasn't the right way of putting it.

I just know I'll be getting a lot of stick for it from the huns and Heart's fans in the office if we don't sell it out. Regardless of whether their teams are in the final or not!

[munchar]

It wouldn’t really.

It would. Hibs as a club & nearly every fan has been fuming about not getting a 50/50 split. Doncaster will gloat, saying he made the right decision. Can’t expect 25,000 in the future against The Old Firm if we can’t shift 19,500!

No it wouldn’t. The only folk that should be embarrassed are the spfl for the way it’s been handled. There lots of fans who could have sat together been denied that by the way it was done. Would Hibs have restricted the numbers of tickets they could buy with a 50/50 split? Might have done for season ticket holders but no chance in a general sale. Now we are in a situation where the best seats might be empty because of this. Absolutely nothing to be embarrassed about. We should have had the chance to shift a 50/50 split whether we did or not.

[Helensburghhibs]

It seems a misconception that a 5050 split is 25k tickets. That would be true if the spfl (league cup) and sfa (Scottish cup) didn't skim thousands of tickets for sponsors,member clubs and various other freeloaders.

Agreed it’s a shambles. Hibs also have to shoulder some of the blame. Once it went to general sale, let folk buy as many as they want. Don’t get this 2 per client reference? Also I think there may be an option to hand back single tickets & purchase groups together in the extra allocation. But whether it’s been handled badly or not, we should still be able to sell 19,500 for a cup final.

[Steven79]

Celtic still haven't sold out their allocation and are in phase 2 so I would say their situation is far worse.

If they do then it'll only be down to Hibbies buying North Stand tickets to get the best seats. I won't believe any other explanation. Watch out for the green and white scarves, will be a total give away.

At the very least 17,500 was a poor allocation which got snapped up in no time. Nothing will change those facts.

we’ve already sold well over a thousand more than that and the remaining 8-900 will (hopefully) sell out.

I have to say the final being a week before Christmas is not helping one bit. I had to move heaven and earth for my permission to poke off for a weekend jolly.

I’m sure many will be in the same boat. Weather is crap and it’s a big expense just before Christmas that many families just didn’t budget for.

Still can’t figure out why it wasn’t kept as a March final?

I think any hopes of a fair share in future will be irreparably damaged if they don't sell out, I know there are other factors; form, covid, time of year etc but still can't believe we are even considering it as a possibility, I expected the bulk of these 2k tickets to go almost immediately. Alarm bells should be ringing if selling 19.5k tickets for a cup final is not a formality. Remember, we sold out 37,000 to watch a worse, Bobby Williamson managed team in this cup, when the club was at a fairly low ebb, which makes this relative apathy hard to fathom.

Whilst I agree that I expected these additional tickets to sell like hotcakes, there is one major difference from the 2021 final to the 2004 final.

I know it went horribly wrong that day but we turned up expecting to beat a Livingston side struggling financially after beating Celtic and Rangers to get there. This year we are playing Celtic and it's a game we are expected to lose.

I think now you're getting down to the kind of people who only attend when the going's good - at the end of the day unless you're a diehard, people are attracted to a successful side and these are the sort of people who maybe see a final v Celtic as one where they won't be backing a winner so why bother?

It would be hugely disappointing if we don't sell out 19.5k for a cup final, regardless of the opposition, but I do think the "only turn up for cup finals" kind of fan are perhaps swayed by how likely it is that Hibs will win when it comes to deciding whether to go or not.

Spot on. If my extended family, who now reside down south, are anything to go by, I’m not surprised at the the time taken to sell out. They’re normally straight on the phone looking for tickets and seats to cup finals. Not a peep this time. Suspect it’s a mix of not expecting to win and already having a trip up to Edinburgh and beyond in the diary a week later.

[banchoryhibs]

I hope that these last tickets will be snapped up but it's very frustrating that these "best seats in the stadium" only become available after every one of our most loyal supporters have snapped up their tickets.

I understand why the club feels that the logistics surrounding swapping seats are difficult but surely it would be possible to wait until all the sold seat tickets have been issued / received then have a day or two when you could turn up at the ticket office and exchange not so good tickets for these prime ones if they've still not been sold.

Not expecting to beat Celtic isn't a great reason to stay away from a cup final. We were longer odds to beat Rangers in the semi and look how that turned out.

It won't stop me from going but then I'm not the kind of fan who only goes to cup finals. I do think some people in this bracket will be more inclined to attend a final where we start as favourites.

Our record of beating Celtic in Cup finals isn't great, so good reason to hide if you're a glory hunter. Against Livi in 04, there were thousands of folk who came along who rarely go to Hibs games, thinking it would be a good day out.

I went to that game with dread, fearing the worst!
Couldn't understand why so many Hibs fans were confident that day, it was a very poor Hibs team who hadn't won a league game for a couple of months (albeit with some young players who went on to be very good in later years, but were nowhere ready at that stage). Livingston were above us in the league at the time, though I think we caught them by end of season. I probably feel more hopeful for this one than I did for that one tbh.

Single handedly my worst (and first) Hampden experience. I was broken after it. Had never seen Hibs win anything before and thought it might be another 13/14 years before we won anything again. Awful, awful day. Luckily 2007 was just around the corner.

This time, much like the semi final, we're expected to be well beaten. I don't mind that.

The SPFL should have made the price the same as semi final considering how close the game is to Christmas. It is very bad timing for a cup final but they were probably dictated to by Premier Sports.

It's horrendous timing for a final. It's an expensive day out once you pay for the ticket, bus and bevvy. In saying that, what an amazing run up to Christmas it would be if we somehow won it!

Premier sports are running the show in terms of that cup. They dictate everything including kick off times. Wouldn't suprise me if in the contract it guaranteed a full stadium in the final which has prompted the allocation for hibs.

I wonder if the announcement of the Hearts tickets going on sale will have any impact on us shifting these?

With the pricing for each it's entirely possible people now have a choice to make. Is Hearts in January more appealing than a final in December? I'm lucky in that I can afford the final and have a ST covering the Hearts game, if I had to buy tickets for each then it would be toss a coin stuff because £100+ on football tickets at this time of year is too much for my budget and I daresay that of many others.

Club could offer say a £5.00 voucher for the Hibs shop and online purchases for those who buy their tickets for the final from Thursday. Would cost the club £4000 but wiil probably pay for itself as people will buy stuff in the shop more than likely for a greater price than the voucher value.

There would be a bit of a noise from those who have already purchased their tickets, and so would miss out on such an offer, I would imagine.

[lyonhibs]

Travel restrictions are ruling fans abroad pretty much out so perhaps something to take into account. Still, should easily be selling 19,500 for a national cup final. Would not be surprised with this new variant and the accompanying restrictions that will inevitably follow to see crowds restricted again early next year so folk should be making the most of 100% attendances whilst they last

[gbhibby]

Agree. but football clubs need to be flexible in their thinking. At this time of the year people will buy presents for people at the full price only to find out the price is less a few days before Xmas and sometimes half the price after Xmas. Club will still get it share of the ticket money from SPFL. In life you win some you lose some.

Just done automated dot counting for this - I get 669 currently.

1906 left for the derby as well (if anyone cares yet).

My manual counting is obviously pish as i got 590!

[JeMeSouviens]

Out of interest, automated how?

The seat info is encoded in a big file - this is the one for the cup final:

I've written a script to download and parse it.

Would you like me to write a proper script, that actually works?

[hibsbollah]

I had no idea there were posh seats available. M3, South Stand Upper at the half way line:confused: I hadn't been hitting the 'View All seats' button.

[Nakedmanoncrack]

Anyone else in here go to pick up tickets today, only to be told that not all tickets bought could be provided? Only 2 of our 3 available, blaming it on Hampden ticketing, and saying they will be in touch when third ticket arrives. Apparently has effected quite a few.

[1875Sean]

Do these get posted out in batches? I order mine on Tuesday the 30th and still not arrived

Apparently the missing tickets has effected a lot of people, presumably including those who opted for postal delivery.

Might be a few handed back if we keep performing like tonight We can’t go into a Cup Final in complete free fall

Didn't realise tickets had already been sent out. I haven't received mine yet but then I thought I read somewhere that the were only getting sent out from today.

Come on, roll up for #SDGFinal2 :greengrin

[Weegreenman]

Mine got delivered this morning. A feeling of dread came over me. This can’t be normal. Only Hibs!

[Since452]

The players are going to need all the support they can get for this now. Snap them up!

The players should have been better and stopped Ross being sacked then.

It would be nice to sell out though and let's make some noise.

[nlandsafchibee]

Well I was thinking of going as there were good debenture seats available, had never been to Hampden,seen the great semi final scenes and was possible to get up and back in day .However after watching the Dundee Utd v Celtic game and the way we were playing dampened thoughts together the way the social media were starting to turn on JR (who was one of the reasons we started to support the Hibs ). I thought yesterday I didnt want to be there if things as I even more think will go badly .I hope I am wrong for you Hibbee fans going .So now after last night and todays news (comments and debated elsewhere) no chance. I am glad JR s last visit to Hampden was such a brilliant occasion .

Watching Hibs get hammered by Celtc in a cup final is a right of passage for every Hibs fan, my first was in 1972. Sometimes just sometimes on a day like today we turn the tables on them. If only we still had Paddy and Jimmy.

I've already seen 2013, would prefer a closer game this time.

Last night’s performance may have put folk off, or on the other hand, now there’s been a change, may give some a lift? Either way, a couple of wins before final will help shift some.

[wookie70]

My three tickets arrived this morning. With Ross getting sacked it has lessened my enthusiasm for the club a bit but I will be there cheering on the players despite their woeful efforts in keeping their boss in a job.

[Keith_M]

My tickets arrived this morning, and I don't even have an Away Season Ticket.


It's about time we had a points/loyalty system in place for the order in which they deliver Cup Final tickets.

[Pagan Hibernia]

Considerable chance we won’t sell all these now

Why?

Why?

I dunno. Sales seem to be slow. Hopefully we do

[HH81]

Still over a week. Issue would have been anyone that missed out might have made other plans so now can't buy them.

If there had been more available from start everyone knows where they stand.

[Keith_M]

If we get a decent result on Saturday that'll be a boost to the ticket sales.

I think there's only 500 or so left, so we're not far away from selling out just now

[Chorley Hibee]

We all might not be going given the tone of the latest Covid announcement today.

[Jones28]

I was shown a tweet earlier of someone queuing (from 3am they emphasise), to get refunds for their tickets :faf::faf:


Hilarious attempt at trolling, and if it's true it's almost even more hilarious they queued from 3am

If it's the same one I saw then it was a wind up.

Yeah I think the match being played behind closed doors is now a very real possibility based on what I've just watched.

Aye, was thinking the same.
