That dictated the cut off point for the original membership. Kensall has merely expanded that to 500 (and monetised it)- with existing 350 members given first shout. All 150 new members have to be STHs too. Understandably, folk will always seek a solution to address their own needs or situation.Quote:

To purchase tickets for Category A matches (Hearts, Rangers and Celtic) you must meet certain criteria. Supporters need to have been registered on the clubs E-ticketing database for 12 months or more and have a previous purchase history.
If you do not meet the criteria above then regrettably you would not be able to purchase match tickets for these fixtures, you can however purchase a hospitality package.
Thanks for the info, but it is still a newer scheme than the straight forward season ticket membership.Quote:

So, as long as you have a previous purchase history (which pretty much 100% of all non ST fans will have) and have been registered for a year (again, this will apply to pretty much all fans), there isnt a problem.Quote:

Your season ticket clearly is for home games and over the years has been different in terms of other incentives it gave. You’ll remember seasons that it included cup games in the ticket for free, then some seasons for a top up fee. Some seasons it has warranted cup final priority but ultimately it has not been a consistent offering other than to guarantee that you can park yer carcas in the same place each week at a mildly discounted price. Even within cup runs we can see different benefits offered between rounds.Quote:

Is the issue not that if you have bought a season ticket for this season and its your first one ever, your not allowed to buy a ticket for Cat A games. Including Villa at home?
The season ticket usually covers Cat A games.Quote:

There might be a handful of people who have just decided to follow Hibs, and who just decided to get a ST............but its not really a big problem.
I agree. Surely the fact that you have a ST proves that you're not a sticky bun.Quote:

You’d think not. I presume you can buy hospitality without have a reference number so surely it’s the same thing.Quote:

We had that problem when I got the kids first half season tickets.Quote:

Seems like a really screwed up way of working.
Any guesses as to how many tickets will be Available when general sale opens Monday?

3000 has been mentioned but 500 will go to the Hibs first members and probably 200 to player’s family’s. So 2300 up for grabs for the rest of us.Quote:

Some can't grasp it. We go everywhere to watch games, but now because we had audacity to watch abroad, we should forego our villa tickets. 🤪Quote:

You can never make everyone happy, unfortunately, when you have 12,000 season ticket holders
You don't have to have been registered for 6 months if you've bought a ST for this season.
The 6 month thing is referring to people wanting to buy tickets in the general sale.
If you buy a ST today, you're guaranteed a ticket instead of taking the chance in the general sale tomorrow!
LPs are and always were the correct answer.Quote:

I may get one, I may not - but I won't grudge those who paid for priority actually getting it !
It should be available to her. Check for "Reserved tickets" or something like that.Quote:
