Sounds like a good idea, I'm all for encouraging more people to get along to games.
Didn't they do this recently against St Johnstone? Maybe they're now trying to entice back anyone that went to that game and were put off football for life

The club can't win sometimes. They're at least making an effort to get more people to come along, and they may be the Season Ticket holders of the future.

I am all for trying to swell the crowd, and as someone said hopefully the clubstore will do a roaring trade......
Well done Hibs for trying this at a hard time of year moneywise for a lot of families

Is this not like buying a £50 pair of jeans before Christmas and then complaining they're only £25 in the January sales?

I pay for 2 season tickets and cup top ups, in June/July when the form comes through the door, the monies that the season ticket holders pay up front, helps the club determine the budgets for the coming season, if I chose to pay on a weekly basis it would cost me less, But I dont, Brockie quite rightly says it should help swell the crowd and help sales in the clubshop, which I am all for, anything to help promote Hibs gets my vote, but what annoys me is the lack of thought towards season ticket holders after we have paid our hard earned back in June/July,
So what is wrong with offering a season ticket holder the chance to bring along a friend at a reduced rate or in the case of my boy's season ticket get him to bring along a friend for a reduced rate, as opposed to just getting our cash in the coffers and forgetting about us until next April/May when they post out renewal forms for more of our hard earned.
Rant over

Seems a good idea in theory,But what IF and i do use the word IF your a parent with 1 kid? 3kids?
I can understand what H18sry is saying above, but what if the club, if they do these "promotions"(i think thats the correct word here),what if in return for his season ticket money(and many 1000's of other) get say 5-10% off the next again season st?
I think half the problem is the adult ticket price.for example an adult and 2 kids go to the game for £22 and the kids enjoy it, and wanna go to another game, its gonna be in and around double that price the next again time.
Let many people i did not get a st for the last couple of season due to the cost.

What did the ticket office say when you phoned to ask about bringing kids along with you? Can they not offer it?

Nice move Hibs
I will be there with my eldest two (aged 8 and 6). In addition to the £22 entrance fee, we will also be spending money in the club shop before the game as buying food/drink at the game. Everyone wins from a revenue point of view. Perhaps more importantly, this should help ensure that a lot of children are Hibs fans for life - the future lifeblood of the club.
To the Season Ticket holders who have expressed unhappiness at this - come on guys, surely this is a great move by the club ? If you have a gripe at lack of ST Holder initiatives surely you can take this up directly with the club ? (if you have not already done so).
Hibs Till I Die.
