Semi final tickets for ST holders

**Mainstandman** · 07-03-2017 06:09 PM

Can anyone remember how many tickets STs could buy last year before general sale. My son and I both have ST but my other son wants to come too and I would prefer to get all the tickets in the first wave and not general sale if it's only 1 per ST

***HibbyAndy*** · 07-03-2017 06:11 PM

I'm after 10 tickets and between us we have 4 season ticket so if we can't get them i'l just wait till the public sale

***hibee*** · 07-03-2017 06:23 PM

It was 90 loyalty points and no restrictions on numbers you could buy.

**Onceinawhile** · 07-03-2017 06:24 PM

I'd imagine it'll be two per st.

Yup. If the crowd is over 30,000 it's impressive given it's on BBC and the kick off time.

I've managed to get firm commitments from 7 semi-regulars/big game only mates. That's in addition to our 4 season tickets so 11 in total. I really hope ST holders get as many as they want or it will be rubbish being split up for the game.

Or just wait until it goes to general sale and buy them all together.

***lord bunberry*** · 07-03-2017 07:05 PM

I would imagine it will go straight to a general sale. There's no chance that the game will sell out.

Why would it be chaos? If it's two per ST, plenty to go round and a few thousand left over for public sale. Simple.

Meant chaos on Ticketmaster, if too many are looking for tickets on day 1, always happens

You could be right but given the massive achievement made last year I'd like to think we'd sell out our allocation. A huge Hibs support could make all the difference in pushing the team over the line and into the final.

**Nakedmanoncrack** · 07-03-2017 07:40 PM

Unlimited for ST holders (this season or next) then remaining tickets to public sale.

That's pretty much a public sale from day 1, as most people will know of someone who has a season ticket

Won't make it unlimited for season ticket holders. Not when we have the best part of 11,500.

Will be two each at most IMO. Even that would account for 23,000 tickets which might be more than we actually get allocated by the time you take of the hospitality, debentures etc. Possibly one for an existing or new season ticket holder. Two if you are existing and have renewed.

Never thought of it that way, could end up with season ticket holders not getting a ticket😄
Hibs have a lot to think about with this, to get it right

I would hope not. ST holders have to get first dibs.

Probably won't, but should.
It would encourage sales, no way we will come close to selling this out.

Wouldnt have thought it would make any difference Billy, surely they'd give us more tickets should we require more, it's not as if Aberdeen will bring more than 12-15k tops?

**jgl07** · 07-03-2017 08:30 PM

Has Hampden sold out in recent years for a SF other than for a bigot fest? They don't bother to open up the best seats (South Upper).

I would hope for 28,000 but maybe much lower given the kick-off time.

It had better not! ST's first then the rest.

***.Sean.*** · 07-03-2017 08:41 PM

Hopefully one per season ticket holder for a few days at least to give all season ticket holders who want what you'd call the prime seats in the north and south first dibs.

They have to offer South Upper to Debenture Holders or relocate them in the South Lower I always get three or four fro a Celtibc Debenture Holder so was glad we avoided them
Seems crazy i can do this and am not a Season Ticket Holder
But on the down side if its not a sell out you can be up there with hardly anyo e else
The last time that happened was against Aberdeen in a Semi when Latapy scored first and they went on to win 2. 1

cant see I only being 1 each a least 2 or no restrictions never had any bother getting tickets for other semis.

***speedy_gonzales*** · 08-03-2017 07:39 AM

Was it the semi or final last year where you were offered one ticket for each season ticket you had? I'm fairly sure I got one for my 15/16 ticket but could also have had a 2nd as I'd already bought my 16/17 ticket?!?

**Pretty Boy** · 08-03-2017 07:39 AM

Hibs will take a very big crowd to this. I'm going to say it will be about 17K if not a few more. Aberdeen will take about 12-14K then their fans will claim to have sold more tickets.

2 per ST for a few days then general sale thereafter will cover it fine.

Final.

Semi was unlimited tickets for anyone with over 90 loyalty points.

**RoYO!** · 08-03-2017 07:47 AM

I know this might seem unnecessary but I'd go:

1 per ST for a few days.
Then 2 per ST.
Then general sale.

Think the club need to factor in the Ticketmaster problem and make this as pain free as possible. Those buying for others (part-timers :p) will need to wait for round 2 or 3. People who just want a ticket for one seat will get best choice and less traffic on Ticketmaster.

**EH54** · 08-03-2017 08:15 AM

Unlimited to ST Holders, then open up to General sale. There will be plenty of tickets to go around will also mean that ST Holders are able to sit next to mates family etc who aren't ST Holders. I know some walk ups who don't have a ST Holder mates or family wont be happy but there will be more than enough to go around
