Anyone know why United are selling direct? Needing the money? See they are doing it for Dundee game as well.
No idea, looks like they are emailing the ticketsQuote:

Very good prices, well done to both clubs for agreeing that
It was £1.50 to collect the ticket from the TO. If Hearts charged us 5 grand or so (3400x£1.50) could they not have got someone to drive up and collect the tickets. We are basically trying to fleece supporters for a few more quid.Quote:

Seems like you get to choose where you want to sit with an interactive map too.
iirc they aren’t charging an admin fee so saves a couple of quidQuote:

Any York based Hibby's know of a pub I could watch the game in ?
Any help would be much appreciated.🤞

Looks like we give actual and not use digital tickets for away fans
Good prices for a quarter final. Hopefully a healthy turnout despite it being a midweek game.
Hibbyradge lives in York I think, he'll be your best bet. There's a pub diagonally opposite The Punch Bowl (Wetherspoons pub) that puts football on, it's called The Windmill Inn.Quote:

Was it a single charge for multiple tickets being posted. Presumably so then as positing 10 tickets costs the same as 1. If so I will direct my anger at Ticketmaster, as the club do most of the admin for free and Ticketmaster get the reward. It was always free to collect tickets before so it seems odd that it has been introduced now.Quote:

Got 3 tickets but they looked to be selling quite fast
Tickets bought, that was painless. Looks like they are selling well, wonder if we will get the stand behind the goals as well.

Literally disappearing as you click on them. Managed to get my two but they're right at the back of the stand. Tickets off to the side still available, mostly singles in the middle of the stand.
Managed to get tickets for the back row so we don't have to sit with our knees in eye sockets up there :greengrin
Ticket sorted 👍 where is best for parking near Tannadice?
3 tickets bought and return train tickets booked - that was painless!
5 tickets bought. Looking forward to this. Think my last League Cup trip to Tannadice Charnley missed a penalty and we lost. A much better Hibs team this time around.
Who are this 'Hibernain' team that they are selling tickets for?
4 tickets bought canny wait train up few beers looking forward to this looking like a big following for us love a an away cup tie
Not only misspelt Hibernian, i'm sitting in the "JERRY KERRY" stand!! Someone up there will be getting their erky booted methinks!:thumbsup:Quote:

My first away match since before the pandemic, looking forward to it.
You'd like to think it will be a massive away support? Is it on TV though?Quote:

Only see half the game.
Ticket booked towards the centre line.
First away game since March 2020.
Happy days.
Barcodes are bigger...Quote:

The latest thing I saw is that there's no plans to lift the ban in order to help with the compliance of wearing face coverings on trains.
I'm the same, down in York as well next week. Messaged a few pubs/sports bars a few weeks back but they all said they didn't have Premier Sports. Let me know if you find somewhere showing it👍Quote:

Nae shortage of bevvy on the train we got back from Darlington last Saturday.
I really like the main stand at Tannadice and find it one of the best away "ends". Admittedly I`m not the tallest so never had any issues with tight seats which is the main complaint from fans. Great view and one you dont normally get as a visiting supporter and we always take a good crowd up there.
Much prefer sitting on the long sides of the pitch. Hopefully another game that will see us in a semi final at the end.
I remember the days you could get a transfer into the stand at Tannadice from the terracing.
Always been a favourite away day of mine.
From memory it is, you just pay one postage fee. Ticketmaster have always charged, Hibs always absorbed this cost but decided recently that they were losing a load of money over it. It’s only £1.50 to me, nothing at all, but tens of thousands to Hibs is a huge cost to take on year after year.Quote:

Are the tickets with bar codes or qr codes?Quote:

Anything that makes it easier for fans to get to games, is a major plusQuote:

180 tickets left approx plus a load restricted view seats.
£18 adults, £12 concessions, less for rug rats
See link in first post.
Could be filling in the gaps but there always seems to be issues with seats and stewarding at Tannadice.
Probably the seats with the restricted views which are clearly marked on the seating plan so easily avoided. I should say I wasn't at the last cup game there so haven't been to a game at Tanadice for a long time.Quote:

They used to have a steep standing terrace. I turned my ankle over jumping up and down once and had to be helped back to the car after the game. People thought I was blotto. Many were in those days of course.Quote:

Not too bad - can park on most streets within quite a close proximity to Tannadice. You can walk all the way round the ground so doesn’t really matter where you park so it’s just a case of pulling into first one you find really.Quote:
