I wonder if they'll give us more than the one stand behind the goals, after we took nearly 3,000 to Perth?

Think we’ve sold slightly more than half of the stand so far (1654 seats).
2 blocks not even open yet
Remember the St Johnson’s game had special family pricing, but was also the opening game of the season

We haven't sold out a single block yet and theres still 2 blocks to be released, very poor uptake so far imo.

It's utterly ridiculous and that kind of data is none of their business.


What I normally recommend is using standard data that meets the minimum validation criteria, e.g.

Data of birth: 01/01/1970 *
Mobile Number: 07123-123-123 **


* Software geeks know the score.

** Most websites will accept it as valid and that specific Mobile number is never issued.

First of all totally agree with Hermit Crab (must be a first :greengrin)it always amazes me why we nearly every derby game home or away we almost sell out our allocation immediately no matter what pricing certainly game at Tynie we also have a thread for ticketless fans begging for briefs but next home game we can’t sell out no matter who it is and how well we’re playing maybe it’s me but always thought you get the same points for a win no matter who the opposition is :thumbsup:

Secondly on travel to Paisley on Saturday go M8 as usual but go early when the Huns are at home that’s what I’m doing :flag:

Think it's because there are more and more occasions of football fans acting like wee bampots and abusing players, wrecking seats, etc. Still a minority but it's getting worse.

As has been mentioned Erskine bridge is a good shout or even the East Kilbride by pass (preferred route to Ayr/killie) lets you avoid Glasgow City centre where M8s always a nightmare these days.

Dear month I guess, especially if you're a non-season ticket holder who's shelved out for Hearts and Rangers plus other away games. We only had about 2200 for Livi last week so not surprising the uptake for Paisley so far.

Without sounding like an uber fan, which I'm not, its the same people who kick and scream that we only get 700-900 tickets for Celtic and Rangers away but they won't go to these run of the mill matches. Tell you what, if we suddenly click and go on a decent run then there will be scrambles for every away game and folk will start demanding a LP system again.

I'm confused, since when did any football fan have to provide a reason ('excuse') to not go to a game?

Is there a small group of Uber fans to whom we should provide a letter from our parents if we can't manage to go?

Thats partly our fault and partly technology progress. Clubs have to pay for tickets to be printed for the 300 or so AST holders, whats the point when the clubs can just send us a link to buy Etickets and scan on entry. Much cheaper as well.

Are you sure about this? Their points system dictates that mostly only those who go to nearly every game are eligible for Hibs away. I have a ST holder mate who goes to 60%-70% of Hearts away games but was below the criteria for the last derby. It almost never goes to a general sale.

Who are these same people you speak of? And so what if they would prefer to see us against the OF v St Mirren.

An odd line of argument to suggest that all fans should see all games as equal in terms of which ones they may wish to attend because they are all worth 3 points.

You need to read the earlier posts. People are apparently 'making excuses' for not going.

Since when did anybody need an 'excuse' not to attend a game?

Never. Well, apart from now I guess!!

I wouldn't worry about it though. It's the same as folk telling you what time you should leave the stadium, or calling you a fool if you buy food at the kiosks, or what you should or shouldn't sing or anything else really.

This is where Hearts are streets ahead of us. They've got Gorgie Rules to follow. We've got to make up our own minds.

St Mirren been doing decent, sitting 6th, kept two clean sheets in their wins against county and united with the latter being a hammering, they did get pumped by abderdeen but dont want to look into that game too much as they seemed to fall apart when gallagher got sent off quite early then aberdeen scored the penalty.

They seem to be trying to get it forward alot more this season so hopefully our pace in the final third will cause their defence problems, an early goal then going on from their would be excellent. then we've got killie and dundee united followed by aberdeen so 4 important matches that we really need to take a good few points from and I think we can, hopefully a couple of new additions after this for the next few in Septermber.

If we come through these next 4 games with decent results could build some real momentum and Magennis I heard is back in training by the end of august with the first team doing proper training, obviously will need to get match sharpeness but if we can get something from these games, hopefully have one or two new players in then Magennis getting match sharp and hopefully starts where he left of he will feel like a new signing himself if he doesn't get injured again.

I know it was only a couple games ago we had that shocker against Livi but im quite cautiously optimistic like, think we will have the odd shocker and the team definitely needs a couple of additions but we're generally looking alright and the Boyle return a massive boost for everyone. Players seem to know what they're meant to be doing and LJ will change it if things are going wrong which I like but the players seem to like him and they're battling to the very last second of games as seen with hearts and rangers which we haven't been used to seeing for a while.

Hopefully a win and good performance along with it to kickstart us into the next few games. Melkerson should be back too eh? If he is I'd maybe try him through the middle with Youan and Boyle on either side. I'm no manager and LJ will know better than me but he cant do any worse than Doidge there.

How long is Mcgeady out for? I saw the update article on magennis, nisebet, mitchell few days ago but no mention of him at all.

Good business acumen? Not for the first time on here people are querying the lack of effort Hibs make to promote a match.

Surely you want as many Hibs supporters at all games regardless of who benefits financially? I’m glad you and yours have tickets but perhaps you might think about others who’d like to go but haven’t seen details of it due to the lack of advertising from Hibs.

This is really starting to annoy me now as not for the first time Hibs have failed to make any mention as to how wheelchair users can purchase tickets for a match.

Wheelchair users cannot purchase tickets online and instead need to email St Mirren directly (which is proving to be more difficult than it should be but that's another matter altogether).

Does anyone know who is tasked with updating the website with this sort of information as I would like to raise my concerns with them as I don't think it's acceptable?

Wheelchair users cannot purchase tickets online and instead need to email St Mirren directly (which is proving to be more difficult than it should be but that's another matter altogether).

Does anyone know who is tasked with updating the website with this sort of information as I would like to raise my concerns with them as I don't think it's acceptable?
Surely that information would be supplied by St Mirren and any enquiries would go to St Mirren as they are selling tickets directly?

Good business acumen? Not for the first time on here people are querying the lack of effort Hibs make to promote a match.

Surely you want as many Hibs supporters at all games regardless of who benefits financially? I’m glad you and yours have tickets but perhaps you might think about others who’d like to go but haven’t seen details of it due to the lack of advertising from Hibs.

Hence why I started this thread.

Hibs did promote it but why do folk need constant reminders?

I feel you’re being a tad sensitive to the issue.

We need constant reminders because most people don't see all the club's post on social media. I follow on Twitter and I would expect them to post ticket details morning, afternoon & night, every day they're on sale.

Good business acumen. Why boost other clubs turnover? The fans that want to go, will be there regardless of how Hibs promote it. Me and the boy being 2 of them.

I remember a time when Hibs were a football team and the idea was for us to win matches.

We used to be helped in doing so by having as large an away support as possible cheering us on.

I’ve never really been one to begrudge other clubs income, especially when it provides Hibs with a non-tangible benefit such as the value of having a decent away support cheering them on to win a game.

I’d agree if they’d kept the away tickets page on the website that was easy to navigate to. For the Livi and St Johnstone games Hibs were posting the ticket links regularly up until the game. They’ve done that once since they initially went on sale with the St Mirren game. It’s hardly asking much

I've already said this last night but happy to repeat again. Hibs have put out reminders to supporters about how to purchase tickets for Saturday's match on both Tuesday and yesterday but have excluded any information about how to purchase tickets if you're a wheelchair user in both articles.

Hibs did include details on how to obtain such tickets in their original press release of 10th August so they obviously are aware of this information. Someone using the club website as their source of information would surely be more inclined to click on an article from either 23rd or 24th August as opposed to going back to the 10th August and therefore if you're a wheelchair user you would be lead to believe that your ticket is available to purchase on St Mirren's website like everyone else which is not the case.

Whether or not the information can be googled is neither here nor there, Hibs have chosen to put out subsequent reminders to people about how to buy tickets for this match but have failed to include any information about wheelchair tickets.

As far as I'm concerned that's not acceptable.

43 tickets now available to purchase for Hibs fans with one section of the Away stand still not opened for purchases

as others have commented why do clubs only open sections of a whole stand - why not make it simple for fans to buy tickets?

i assume the clubs’ argument if they force fans into smaller sections rather than spread across a whole stand they might be able to employ less stewards?

seems like penny pinching with a risk of deterring fans from purchasing tickets - so if you are unlucky and go to buy a ticket when all of the available sections are sold out (with sections not released) might give up on a purchase?

hibs fans rep should raise the issue with the offending away clubs - and Hibs shouldnt do same for away fans

Its mental, TBF to St Mirren at least they offer the middle blocks first but after half of N5 sells out they should open N1 up. Give people the choice of where to sit. At Easter Road you'll have away fans sitting on row 1 and 2 right at the corner flag when higher up seats directly behind the goals remain closed off. Can't cost that much to sweep a few empty pie and coke cartoons aside.


Payday tomorrow for some I guess so sure we'll be selling right into N1 by kick-off time and have a near sell out :flag:

Its mental, TBF to St Mirren at least they offer the middle blocks first but after half of N5 sells out they should open N1 up. Give people the choice of where to sit. At Easter Road you'll have away fans sitting on row 1 and 2 right at the corner flag when higher up seats directly behind the goals remain closed off. Can't cost that much to sweep a few empty pie and coke cartoons aside.


Payday tomorrow for some I guess so sure we'll be selling right into N1 by kick-off time and have a near sell out :flag:



Hibs supporters backing of the team this season has been excellent so far.

A few years ago I took my son to St Johnstone where they had a mixed stand behind the goals. Friendly atmosphere, good chat with the Saints fans next to us and overall a pleasant experience (apart from watching Butcher’s Hibs team).

I'm completely aware of that.

That, however, is totally irrelevant to the point I'm making.

I've already said this last night but happy to repeat again. Hibs have put out reminders to supporters about how to purchase tickets for Saturday's match on both Tuesday and yesterday but have excluded any information about how to purchase tickets if you're a wheelchair user in both articles.

Hibs did include details on how to obtain such tickets in their original press release of 10th August so they obviously are aware of this information. Someone using the club website as their source of information would surely be more inclined to click on an article from either 23rd or 24th August as opposed to going back to the 10th August and therefore if you're a wheelchair user you would be lead to believe that your ticket is available to purchase on St Mirren's website like everyone else which is not the case.

Whether or not the information can be googled is neither here nor there, Hibs have chosen to put out subsequent reminders to people about how to buy tickets for this match but have failed to include any information about wheelchair tickets.

As far as I'm concerned that's not acceptable.

Details on the Hibs website now mate. https://www.hibernianfc.co.uk/article/supporters-information-st-mirren-a

Have to say, all week i have been humming and hawing over buying a ticket for this weekend as i was on holidays last week so couldn't attend the rangers game...

..but the ticketing situation has directly put me off as I am quite pernickety about where is sit and seeing as all the back rows were long sold before i decided to take a look i chose to just watch from home.

If they were to open up the final section i may be tempted again if i could get a seat in the back couple rows.

The final section is open and back rows available...

Either way having the money and time to go and support your team but potentially not going because you may have to sit a few feet lower is absolutely mental. However each to their own etc.

I don't get why they need segregation there, it's St Mirren v Hibs, not Boca Juniors v River Plate, and both sets of fans are in different stands.

The authorities who think a bit of tarpaulin, covering a few 100 seats in a corner, is the difference between a trouble free afternoon and civil unrest, really need to get a grip.

Why is that unreasonable, especially given there are around a 100 seats currently unsold in the AWAY end.
