Yes, had to log back in a couple of times but third time lucky. I think I was selecting concession tickets first which I then changed to my own ticket price first then worked fine.

Not much advance warning again for folk maybe buying in groups to organise.

If you don't log-in at the start, it should really let you keep what is in your basket when logging in prior to the checkout. Infuriating.

You’ll need confirm you want a quantity of 4 tickets at the top of the page before the page on which select the type of ticket you want. That’ll then allow you to select which type of tickets you want for each 4, scroll down after you select each ticket type. Hope that makes sense!

I made a bit of a hash ordering a ticket first thing this morning, added a ticket to basket without realising it was added so thought I had to order again my ticket is in DD but the system was offering tickets at UU and VV after I went back, so they must be well taken up if those rows are going as best available

Is that maybe because the first section is cordoned off for the players to get to the dressing room?

Yes, we got row DD last night, so perhaps they are selling them piecemeal rather than entire rows at once.

This has caused confusion before at Fir Park, and I think Hibs fans have got into the habit of just sitting anywhere on trips through there. With a bigger crowd than normal the need for allocated seats is more necessary for this one.

There’s an option to search again in this area once you’ve selected the South Upper. If you keep clicking it will go through all available seats. Seats 18-39 available from row AA upwards.

If you don’t want to sit in row ZZ. Think it is the final row.

A few images of the away end here. Think AA is front row and though a little difficult to count the rows if it isn't the very back row it will be quite near it.

The “free seating” has potential to cause a lot of problems on the day if it’s sold out. Particularly is some fans are saying they have seat and row numbers on their tickets.

If it has free seating marked more prominently then that’s how it should be. If people look at a ticket that says free seating and try and pick fights over specific seats then it would be mental. Hopefully Hibs clear that up either way before the game though

And when we say your actual seat row & number are in small type they are in "need a microscope" levels of small type, on the edge of the ticket (not where you would expect)

In microscopic print. Presumably only numbered so that Motherwell could keep track of how many were sold and where.
Big block letters saying Unallocated seating makes the intention obvious.

“Just sit anywhere” will be a shambles, if allocation sold out, or close to sold out.

That would be fine if hardly any tickets sold but when it's full you need to use the seat allocated. As people will want to sit with friends and family and will have booked seats together for that reason.

Why would you not use the seat allocated other than to cause chaos?

That would be fine if hardly any tickets sold but when it's full you need to use the seat allocated. As people will want to sit with friends and family and will have booked seats together for that reason.

Why would you not use the seat allocated other than to cause chaos?

I went to the ticket office to get mine so no email about seat and row numbers.

How the **** can people be so precious about a daft seat.

The tickets state "SIT ANYWHERE" so believe it or not its going to be a a case of "SIT ANYWHERE".



Bulk of the Hibs support will rock up at 12.25pm. Want to guarantee a group of seats together go at 12.20pm when the stand will be empty. None of this is rocket science. But why do that when you can whinge on the internet to complete strangers for attention.:cb

The seats and row are also printed on the ticket. As you can see already on this thread it is going to cause confusion on the day as some will be adamant to sit in their seat and some won’t care less and sit anywhere. Both will have valid arguments as well. Think it’s a bit harsh to say people are looking for attention as those with kids that can’t get there early might be concerned.

I’ll be going early to sit on the seats printed on the tickets for an easy life more than anything.

:agree: Aye, I got seat numbers in my confirmation email. I'm taking my wee boy, so I'll be sitting in these seats with him. They're the ones I booked. I don't see what the issue is. It's clearly printed in my confirmation what my seats are. Anyone in them will be asked, politely, to shift!

Because guys like Silky are taking along younger kids and would like that piece of mind they’ll can sit in the seats together they purchased in the belief that was exactly what they were buying.

:agree: this happened at Firhill a few years ago whereby stewards were telling people to sit anywhere. This was important because I had a ticket for me and my dad bought at the gate, but in different parts of the stand. But I couldnt leave my dad due to his alzheimers. I was assured seat number didnt matter and we could sit together in any spare seats. Then you end up with some bellends turning up agressively demanding you move from what they think are their seats, when they arent.


If I'm heading with a young kid I want to sit in the two seats allocated on the ticket.

But they aren't allocated on the ticket because there is another piece of info that clearly states sit anywhere. This overrides any seat allocation number.

Under the circumstances this means peoole can sit in any seat they like on a first come first serve basis. If you get there early and the seat numbers on your ticket are free then you can sit there. If someone else is in the seats numbered on your ticket then you will need to find another one. It's really that simple.

I get what you are saying mate but the problem is the policy of unnallocated seating means that there is only one thing that will work - you have to get a seat on a first come first serve basis. If anyone isnt happy with that they have to take it up with Motherwell/Hibs.. No one should be getting shunted out a seat on the day!

Can anyone think of a reason why we’ve bought specific seats only to be told to sit anywhere, makes no sense at all. I bought seats in the lower tier knowing that they were up toward the back of the lower tier, I’d have waited for the upper tier to be sold if I’d known this. Appreciate there’s more important things in life to get worked up about but it’s a recipe for disaster🤷🏼

Why would someone accommodate you and move when its not your seat? You'd be causing unnecessary aggro in the process.

It still states Upper or Lower on the ticket above the bit about sitting in any available seat so I’d say you’ve to follow that advice.

People talking about the seat number being on the ticket surely haven’t looked at the tickets yet. The seat/row numbers are printed in tiny font sideways in the corner of the ticket, most people won’t even know they’re there.

It also doesn't state that it's an allocated row and seat number. It's just a letter and a number, like a sales code or suchlike. There's nothing to say that the ticket entitles you to sit in a particular seat, while in much bigger type is says sit anywhere. It's quite clear what the intention is.

That's why the policy from Motherwell is silly as I've said.

But the policy is what it is - so what about them? I'd suggest they get there early enough to find 5 seats together. They have no right to sit in the seat numbers on their tickets because as weve established it's a sit anywhere game. What if they turn up later and are trying to move another family of five out of seats?

The policy may be daft but anyone who still thinks they are entilted to sit on a specific seat and move other people is even dafter.

What if a family arrives early, finds seats together then Mum or Dad takes the kids to toilets at HT, or to get a snack. Are their seats then free for someone else to sit in for second half should they so wish?

Your hard lines chief sentence is correct. The family has just potentially given up their seats, so it would be silly of them to do that given they could split the journey.

You make a valid point though if its me and my daughter and I need to take her to the toilet then we are potentially snookered. It's why the policy from Motherwell is daft.

There is no way the advice can change now - it's too far gone given all tickets say you can sit anywhere.

Just get in the ground early gates will be open an hour before kick off pubs aren’t open (can drink yourself stupid after the game ) if everyone does this get seated well before kick off and put all our efforts into singing our heads off and backing the team simple really

Most fans won't head to "their seat" cos they dont have a seat. Nor should they. They will sit in the best seats available on a first come first serve basis. You just need to get along earlier than most to secure a seat you like.

You do have a seat allocated however you don't have to sit in this. It's a free for all is the policy. So yes you are correct but seems a strange policy and more akin to something lower league clubs operate due to there being low sales.

If you can get there early best you do so, however if you can't get there early (for whatever reason) and you need to sit in a seat allocated as you have small children (for example) - then I hope people are grown up and move.

I think Motherwell have maybe done this off the back of visiting fans just congregating in whatever area they wanted.

So this does away with stewards having to police people being in the correct seats.

Hibs need to put the message out about this even although it's pretty obvious from the ticket.

I'm heading in early with the boy so we can get in the lower tier or if early enough the front rows of the upper.

I think you need to head to the upper or lower if that is where you have a ticket. But in truth (like most on here) it's all guess work now!!

You dont have a specific seat allocated though, nor does anyone. It doesnt matter what number is on the ticket - it's not relevant to anything!

I totally agree its silly, but people should not be turning up expecting to be able to sit in the seat number on their ticket, as they have no right to whether they have kids or not.

Hopefully there will be enough seats next to each other so that people can sit next to kids etc with ease, and if not then hopefully people close by to random individual seats can shuffle about to help.

Yip agreed.

Just seems madness and easily avoided by simply telling fans to use the seat detailed on the ticket like any other game I've ever attended (other than lower league matches where there has been 500 or so in attendance so not an issue).

Basically if you're travelling in a big group get there early. The people who get there early will get the best seats and sit together. I don't think there will be any problems. Motherwell have probably done this before. Will encourage people to arrive early so that there is not the usual problems with everyone turning up 5 minutes before the start of the game.
I am sure some on here are making a mountain out of a molehill.

Yeh I know its not us in control, so Motherwell have put us in a tricky situation, but I think the comms is too vague there. It says:

"While your ticket has ‘free seating’ stated there are also seat details on each ticket. Some supporters have purchased certain tickets for accessibility reasons so please bear this in mind when choosing your seats in the stand."

It's not really 100% clear on what people should do - its a sort of middle ground. The first sentence isnt definitive. And the second is waffley. What exactly does that mean? I think its open to interpretation, and we can see from this thread that people need 100% clarity.:greengrin

True enough, you had the same in the old North stand outwith the season ticket area people tended to sit in the same seats. You did have people who always stood at the same place each week on the East.

It really annoys me that Hibs are often not including wheelchair ticketing information in their announcements lately.

I'm giving this one a miss due to the horrendous facilities at Fir Park and the fact it's on the BBC but if I was going I'd have looked at that article and had no idea how to purchase a ticket.

Really poor.

But how would anyone be acting inconsiderately to others by sitting in any free seat, as they are meant to do? It doesn't even clarfify with any authority that everyone is ok to sit where they like. Whilst I'm clear that's what should be done, this thread has proved that others think differently. It's far too vague.

If you can shuffle up so a family or a group can sit together, you should do so. If you’re in a group, don’t leave one seat free at the end. Things like that would be my take on it.

There’s too many potential scenarios out there to list them all so general advice is probably the best they can do. If people show common sense and are considerate then it’ll work fine.

If Motherwell go to the bother of printing row and seat numbers on their tickets, the same seats as what folk were buying online , it’s surely not outlandish to suggest they might just keep it simple and everyone sits in their allocated seat. Particularly as it looks like selling out. Printing both seats and free seating is schoolboy stuff.

Not a major big deal for me either way and will follow the instruction, but will just add some unnecessary logistics for many.
