Rangers v Hibs tickets (Thu 15th Dec) - on sale in 45 mins..

[Carheenlea]

I see the tickets for this go on sale very shortly - 4pm today.

This game is on TV so wonder if it will have much impact on sales, but after a break which everyone will no doubt welcome after bleak form, the appetite to get back to watching Hibs after a month of international football, many will be raring to get going with Hibs again.

I believe VAR has already declared it a 5-0 home win.

Seems to be the odd ticket around on Hibs site, to buy for this game

Still tickets available in GW1 and GW3, at least a few hundred left Billy, very poor uptake in an allocation of only 900.

I can see why it dosen't hold much appeal.

Only ground in Scotland I wouldn't consider taking my son due to the home crowd.

I'd argue Tynecastle is worse for your son given all the open drug taking, drunkenness, vandalism, ridiculous songs and general mayhem that goes on there.

Out of the 3600 tickets sold for Hearts away, how many are going to Ibrox? Barely 700 if you're lucky. I know it shouldn't but it really ****s me off.

And me, it’s a joke we can’t sell out 900 tickets, Thursday night or not.

Our support picks and chooses when to support though. Always have, probably unfortunately always will.

This is why loyalty points is a must.

Money is tight for a lot of people with plenty now struggling who weren’t before. The tickets for this weren’t cheap, throw in the travel costs and takeaways and a hell of a lot of Hibs fans who would have gone now can’t. Those of us lucky enough to be able to go should just be counting our blessings.

Correction, theres a lot of Hibs fans who can go but just won't. They'd rather watch it on Sky spouting excuses like I won't Rangers them the money etc. If the derby was on tv it would not have sold out as quickly yesterday. Reality is that Andrew70 is right, our support pick and choose when to go, we are ***** and playing crap so Ibrox is off limits but if we were playing well it would have sold out on the first day. In the championship you struggled to get a ticket for Rangers away and even after coming back up it sold out.

Points system is a must, it would also sort out these one game wonder jokers who only go to Hearts away.

I agree that we need a points system. But calling fellow Hibs fans jokers is low. We probably have about 1500 steady away fans. So you saying that 2000 need sorted out?

I've only been to a couple of away games this year but have a ticket for Tynecastle and got it about an hour after they went on sale. I can't imagine there's that many fans who wanted a ticket that didn't get one.

There are plenty that never got tickets for the game and plenty that got tickets who won't have been to an away game this season and this will be their one game a season.

A points system would clean that up straight away and this game would never go to zero pointers. If Hibs had done it right from day one we wouldn't be in this position of folk missing out on tickets.

It won't happen but it should be implemented starting next season, its easy to maintain as its all electronic. Adidas manage it no bother, so do other clubs including hearts and have done for years.


If you had a ST this year as well as an AST you start next season on 100 points

If you had a ST this year but no AST then start on 80 points

If you have a half ST this season then you start on 60 points.

A seasons worth of points should also drop off every 2 years as well to keep points manageable.

Nah, we don’t need a points system. The Away Season Ticket does the job adequately.

[Hermit Crab]

I don't think it does do the job adequately. Yes it sorts out those who go nearly every week but the issue is those who can attend 60%, 70%, 80% of away games but cant commit to the AST as it wouldn't be suitable for them. There should be a points system to provide a fairer system for those who go to some away matches.

I don't think its right that a ST holder who's been to a few away games in a season is thrown into the same pot and given the same chance of a ticket for Hearts away as a ST holder who hasn't bothered to go to any away games all season but all of a sudden they fancy a Hearts away day. Don't think thats fair at all.

I’d be in the group you describe there. I’m quite happy to take my chances with every other season ticket holder. I think I’ve only missed out on one game I wanted to go to in the last ten years.

Regardless, I still don't think its right and think a points system should be brought in.

[Cod Boy]

I’m not going to ibrox the last visit in February a empty bottle of buckfast thrown from the rangers fans above narrowly missed my 12 year old son.

That last game was definitely the worst I remember it being in a long time. All sorts of bottles etc being thrown towards the end of the game

[Keith_M]

A lot of the regular away game attenders don't fancy going to Ibrox, which is understandable. We took roughly 1,400 to Kilmarnock but this is a different type of experience entirely, especially for those with young kids.


I'd imagine our recent form (plus maybe the day & time) has also put a few people off who might otherwise have gone.

I think you’re doing yourself and other AST holders a dis service there HC, I’d suggest they should be worth the same, if not more than a home ST.

[Jones28]

Nah, we don’t need a points system. The Away Season Ticket does the job adequately.

I don’t think it does. If you want to guarantee a particular ticket you need to sign up to every other away game?

A loyalty points scheme has its flaws but it’s way better than that.

[He's here!]

I can see why it dosen't hold much appeal.

Only ground in Scotland I wouldn't consider taking my son due to the home crowd.

I may just have been lucky but I've never experienced any serious bother at Ibrox since the away fans got moved into the corner.

It's not the home crowd which is stopping me going. It's the fact it's a very costly trip at this time of year to watch us most likely get gubbed.

Rangers, Hearts and Aberdeen away, are the places missiles get thrown at the Hibs support. Happens at every game
The think I hate about Ibrox is your locked in at FT, then left in the car park for ages, before the away support cars and buses are allowed out
Then you’ve got to try and get on the M8 to head home.

[Steven79]

Yeah but wouldn't Ibrox be low points as it's considered a big game compared to an away trip to the likes of Saint Johnstone.

[Hermit Crab]

No but you'd have to have attended the high points games like Ross county and Aberdeen away to be eligible for Hearts and Rangers away.

[Hermit Crab]

I think you’re doing yourself and other AST holders a dis service there HC, I’d suggest they should be worth the same, if not more than a home ST.


That's what I've said.

100 for current ST and AST
80 for a current ST but no WAY
60 for a current HST

[Ringothedog]

That's what I've said.

100 for current ST and AST
80 for a current ST but no WAY

That’s a great basis on which to start next season. I thought the loyalty points was a great system until they royally ****ed it up by awarding points to HSL members. I got the points but did not need them.

[zitelli62]

Afraid ibrox is the only away game I will miss all season as it is a cesspit of a place clueless stewards even worse police who watch that s*** throw missiles at you and do nothing but smile will never set foot in that hole again.

[Eyrie]

That's what I've said.

I'm in favour of a points scheme but if we have one then the AST is no longer required. I also wouldn't award extra points for having an AST because they'd get points for attending the games.

Keeping it simple, I'd give 25 points for a season ticket, 15 points for a half season ticket, one point for each home cup game and one point for each away game, but no points if the cup or away game is a sell out. I'd also restrict the points to the two previous seasons plus the current one, so that it doesn't become a closed shop.

Its so easy to implement as well. Hearts have done it for years without any issues bar the usual moaning when those with not enough points miss out.

[Jones28]

That's what I've said.

100 for current ST and AST
80 for a current ST but no WAY
60 for a current HST

Sorry badly worded - I’d argue that they should be worth the same or more individually ie 100 for a home, 120 for an away so a combined 220.

[DH1875]

Looks like its sold out now.

[Tambo]

Michael Beale has reportedly decided to call off his first game in charge of Rangers against Swansea as he wants more time to train the players.

According to the Scottish Sun [30 November], the game that was due to take place on Saturday, 3 December, will not go ahead.


Makes no sense if true as it would only be one more day of training 😆 hopefully Leverkusen give them a doing and we at least put up a decent fight and then who knows.

GGTTH.

I like you HC but this post is pish. I missed a grand total of about six away games between 2006-2018 and haven’t missed a derby at tynecastle since 2005, been every time we’ve only sold half a stand expecting a tanking. When we had loyalty points I was going every week and was in the top band for getting away tickets. Unfortunately this year between overtime and projects at work, extra callout weeks and general personal circumstances Tynecastle will be my first away game this season. Hopefully I’m worthy enough to be there. I’d be away every week if circumstances allowed but it’s been hard enough for me to get the time to get to ER this year nevermind expensive away trips some folk simply canny afford in the current financial climate
