    Another slight on pensioners.
    Most people will be happy and won't care about the cost to the elderly.
    I had hoped that after complaining about the cost of the semi, the prices for the final would be fairer to pensioners.

    I have always assumed that the elderly paid concession prices ?

    Quite so, but only when concessions are available, which they were not for the semi and are not for the final.

    Whilst I sympathise with your position where do we draw the line, discounts for unemployed, full time students, families on low incomes? Let's just delight in the fact that we're in another cup final which has been priced, in my view, sensibly. There are as many working families as cash strapped as pensioners!

    Where do we draw the line with season tickets and entry to any other game?
    Why change the rules for the League Cup semi and final?

    It's hibs sole decision on what they charge for season tickets, the pricing at a cup final is not under our total control, these will have to have been negotiated. It'll be based on supply/demand, will pensioners be willing to miss out on a cup final for the sake of a tenner, they obviously don't think so.

    It's a cup final ffs. I would pay double that to watch Hibs in the final. If it's too expensive for you then don't go. Why does everything on here always turn into a moaning session 🙄🔫

    on the contrary...i'l be one myself in 11 years but seriously your correct of course, it looks like the pricing has been set by both clubs and unfortunately only two groups have been taken in to consideration, i'd be interested if concessions were discussed at all between the clubs, and if not...why not

    Decent pricing.

    Would have liked to have seen is get 30K though just to give us a bit kore flexibility with sales and letting groups sit together.

    Looks like more tickets will be forthcoming if the 25,800 are sold.

    I'm sure they will be but the initial allocation probably tightens up how we go about selling them slightly.

    With 30K every ST holder could have got 2 so mates etc could sit together and there would have still been about 14K left. Anyway not complaining as everyone who wants will get one way or another.

    does anyone know when they will announce when and how they will be sold? I want to be sure I can get a ticket before booking travel etc

    I have the grand total of 10 loyalty points, so I'm one rung up the ladder before a general sale! I know everyone is saying anyone on the datatbase should get one but I'd like to be sure before forking out on the train!

    cheers

    There's only 20,000 on the database. You'll get a ticket before general sale.

    With so many tickets coming our way, there must be a chance of something like that. Everyone who wants one should get a ticket; the Hibs support will be enormous.

    IMO I would only have two "waves", season ticket holders and then general sale.

    8,000 season ticket holders with 2 each would still only amount to 16000 even if every season ticket holder took up their second ticket option and lets face It there will be several thousand additional tickets made available after the initial 25,800.

    What ever the allocation I don't think there will be a panic over getting a ticket

    Seems a decent simple enough option

    I reckon, even with initial allocation, that anyone with enough points for half season ticket or above should get 2 tickets, then general sale.

    Belt and braces - but the two on your ST, then, if you can buy the ten together, do so and sell the two you already have

    Delighted with that. I can sit side on for a change. Way too expensive for the kids the last few semis and finals to do that.

    5 points or 100 points, there has to be a point in having loyalty points and these guys should be given the chance to buy tickets before any general sale (after ST holders of course).

    Is there a designated family section or are all areas the same for kids prices

  28. #28
    Looks like all areas are the same price this time around

    I hope there will be. My young son was nearly put off for life during the 4-3 falkirk semi when there was no designated family section. . The fighting, arguing and general idiotic behaviour of a few around us had him terrified.

    I think you'll find that there is no guarantee of any better behaviour in the family section based on previous experience!
