    Season Tickets

    Is it poor form if I go and buy a season ticket now and steal some disgruntled punters seat as they are waiting on the new manager to be announced. I've never had a season ticket before.

    I'm thinking not as you should support your club through thick and thin but its bothering me slightly.

    They come with added benefits this year.

    a) you get to take the moral high ground over anyone who hasn't backed the club by buying one

    b) you get to moan about the price you paid for Championship football
    Buy nothing online unless you check for free cashback here first. I've already earned £2,389.68!

    I'm waiting on an email from Leanne to confirm my upgrade to one of the nice reclining leather seats in the upper FF where the posh fans normally sit. That's the advantage of renewing early.

    Only if you don't buy one for me while you're there.



    FWIW, if you buy one now, before the new Manager or Signings are announced, you are fully entitled to call yourself an Über Fan

    A) sorry but absolute nonsense you will never have the moral high ground over another Hibs fan that refuses to pay to watch crap while there club is run into the ground. Stand up and be counted, what has happened to Hibs is a f ing disgrace...

    B) fare play


    Ps I was there in 1999, you can get to f..... with your moral high ground, hubs are a shambles just now. Big picture....tut.tut

    Don't think the deadline has passed yet. Maybe wrong.

    Valid reason to hold off until the new manager comes in. If the new guy has the same football style as Butcher, you don't want a seat to near to the ground, so that you can rule out repetitive strain injury, having to look up all the time.

    No-one should be surprised at this news despite the fact we are playing in a different (lower) league than the Club believed it would be in when the ill thought out ST campaign was launched, that we haven't had a supported and committed football manager on board nor do we have a clue who will be playing for us next season!

    Why is it reasonable to expect people to pay more than the going rate for the leàgue we are in despite the Club not addressing that very important issue directly with the fan base to secure as many STs as possible from those who have bought in the past!

    Why can't you renew online?

    You're partly right with that but one of the reasons that there wasn't much availability in the famous five in March was that lots of people bought child season tickets the previous season for £25 in order to secure a cup final ticket. It's why the famous five never looked full even though it was showing as sold out.
