Even with the ST holders discount it still feels a tad expensive for what it is. Seems to have been popular enough before though.

Yeah £28 seems a bit steep for a pint, a pie, a programme and a slightly fancier seat.

An adult season ticket costs around £21 per match so an extra £7 for a pie, a pint a match programme and a fancy seat doesn't seem too bad.

But the £21 is already paid with your ST, therefore it's costing an extra £28. It's £43 for non ST holders.

It wouldn't be me.

It is an extra £28 that a season ticket holder would have to pay though. They won't get a £21 refund on their ST.

I don't know..people moan about not getting a decent pie at the football and then moan when they are asked to pay £28 for one...you can't win !

***WhileTheChief..*** · 15-10-2018 12:23 PM

Everything is too expensive don’t ya know.

Hibs just keep on ripping us off at every opportunity.

Disgraceful way to treat us fans.

You could say the same about almost all hospitality packages at all top level clubs if you are used to just paying a season ticket price and have a pie at a bakers on the way to a game.

Basically Hibs have 3 levels of hospitality ranging from £160 (£140 for ST holders) - To Pie and pint which is £43 (£28) if you are looking to take a client to a match or treat someone on their birthday etc, then that's the going rate for a "hospitality" experience. If you just want to watch the match from the stand, then no one is forcing you.

I don't think £48 is that much for a top level match, access to bar, programme and food...but It's more aimed at corporates and special occasions than season ticket holders.

It must be a decent sized pie.

Or a wee bit of hairy pie?

***superfurryhibby*** · 15-10-2018 01:35 PM

Good luck with that one, certainly wouldn’t be tempting to me or my other ST buddies.

If it was that there would be a queue for it!

Shocker of a price

Thats where I am in that no ST holder in their right mind would go for that, though I can see wh's point to a degree. Still, I'll be surprised if there is a large take up on it.

***Hermit Crab*** · 15-10-2018 01:45 PM

A pie and a pint for £28? Hud me back.

***Oscar T Grouch*** · 15-10-2018 01:46 PM

It’s really not that bad a price, you’re paying for access to a good bar in the executive lounges, a pint, a pie (better than the ones sold in the stands) and a seat in the comfy black seats in the west. It’s the lowest level for hospitality Hibs offer and it’s reasonably priced. You’re not just paying for a pie and a pint, you’re paying for hospitality and all the overheads that incurs. Every time I’ve been in hospitality I’ve had a great time and it is a totally different experience from my usual seat in the east.

**Skol** · 15-10-2018 01:47 PM

And non season ticket holders get the pie and pint for a bargain £15 over and above their ticket.

Deal of the decade!

**Brooster** · 15-10-2018 02:36 PM

That is decent value for a corporate package these days. Good on Hibs for maximising income with this type of deal.....despite folk on here moaning as per.

We really should be protecting the value of the season ticket better.

If I was a walk-up fan and only made the odd game, £15 extra would begin to tempt me to upgrade the matchday experience.

**~~IGRIGI~~** · 15-10-2018 02:49 PM

You couldn't pay me 28 quid to eat an ER pie.

**~~Fife-Hibee~~** · 15-10-2018 02:52 PM

Post-brexit prices right there.

**~~hibbyfraelibby~~** · 15-10-2018 03:05 PM

You wanted action on ER catering, you have it. A Pie so stale and inedible you need a pint to try and wash it down. At least they included a programme for you to read when you are ensconced in the bog.😀

Ok, ok thanks for pointing that out!

It's been a long day.

**Pretty Boy** · 15-10-2018 03:56 PM

By way of comparison at Musselburgh racecourse a general admission ticket on New Years Day costs £25. An upgrade to include a Pie Not pie, chips, pint and a programme is an additional £11.99 or £12.99 to add fish & chips, a bottle of beer and a programme. Neither of those allow access to any 'exclusive' areas though.

It's not a great deal in all honesty but even basic hospitality packages come with fixed costs that have to be met. As with anything if it's not for you then there's no one forcing you to buy it. I can't imagine ahything worse than hospitality at a football match so they could offer it for an extra fiver and I'd still say no thanks.
