    Not renewing season ticket.

    Disappointed to read on social media several hundred fans not renewing after Saturdays display.
    Hope they come round. Strange time to jack it in.

    Don't believe it. Most of them claiming they 'aren't renewing' probably never had one in the first place.

    I’ve only seen one person saying they won’t renew

    Be surprised if we don’t hit the same amount as last season at least. With the added bonus of us potentially getting back in adding another 1k or so on top & European football.

    I think we’ll get around 12/12.5k

    Heat of the moment, they'll be back.

    We’d have set a new record if we’d won the cup on Saturday.

    To have already sold 8k, in the circumstances, is outstanding. Safe to say sales will be slowing down. On the bright side, gives me a better chance in any ballots.

    Naturally, people tend to make impulsive statements like this after a disappointing defeat, especially given the manner of the one on Saturday.

    Guarantee most will never have had the intention of purchasing a ST or, after a few weeks of cooling off, will come round and purchase one again.

    I'm absolutely gutted about Saturday. As is pretty much every fan I know.

    But I get paid on Thursday and I'll be renewing mine along with two who I usually go with.

    It was as rank a performance as you'll likely see in a cup final. Not going to stop backing Hibs because of it though.

    I renewed before the semi final. What happened on Saturday would have made no difference if I still had to renew, I would be doing it anyway. It would be an insult to my 45 plus years of going to Easter Road for me to chuck it on the back of that ***** ...... it wasn't even bad enough to register on the Richter scale of Hibs cup final disasters, it was so tepid it doesn't even deserve the accolade 'disaster' .... it was just pathetic.

    Anyone threatening not to renew after a semi, a final and third place shouldn't renew. They should away and **** over the thought of the Euro Super League.

    search Twitter for example using “Hibs [not] renewing” and theres not one.
    perhaps some closed group of Hibees maybe?

    I am not so sure lots of people have got out of the habit of going to football and any fans lost now will be very difficult to tempt back. Especially when the experience may not be the same and possibly less enjoyable due to restrictions.

    Only seen one so far,however he was advising all hibs fans not to renew as according to him it will lead to more of the same gash we witnessed on Saturday, way to grow the club eh?

    Can’t deem getting to semi final and final as an achievement .. FFS it was the worst semi- final line-ups in years and we couldn’t win a cup. But I suppose we were playing St.Johnstone so maybe we should celebrate it after all we set-up to stop them playing.

    Saturday was utterly terrible and one of the worst results in our history

    I never understand how people can place any weight behind this kind of thing.

    People say things in the heat of the moment. Then they calm down and realise it was a bit daft. I've said I'm not going back in my head at least 500 times watching Hibs over the years. I've followed through on the threat once when I chose not to use my ST for a game v Dundee Utd under Fenlon. Hibs won and I just felt stupid for missing it.

    The people saying this will either be back next season or had no intention of ever buying a ST anyway. There may be a couple of exceptions to that but they will be a tiny minority.

    I know of 6 that are not renewing.simply financial, they can't justify paying for something they might not get to use. Especially coming from fife, they're thoughts are if it comes to a ballot ,ST holders from Edinburgh will get preference over us fifers.for what its worth,my family & friends are from fife. And we have all renewed,

    which is fairy nuff. Despite the title tho the OP is on about the specific scenario relating foregoing renewing due to the performance of the team on Saturday... not due to finances or likelihood of attending in person. I’d be weary of speculating on priority given to locals that’s a bit of an odd one.

    Yeah we were on track for fantastic numbers if we’d won on Saturday. Whilst as you say things will slow down most folk that were going to get one and just haven’t done it yet still will by the time the season comes around.

    The euros gives everyone a chance to not have to think about Hibs too much then I think people will just be excited to get back in to the stadium again come July
