    The only time I'm aware of hibs fans not being able to get into a Final was , ironically, when it was pay at the gate against Dunfermline.
    I couldn't get a ticket for Livi final had to buy a hospitality for me and my dad.
    The club are in a no win situation here due to the numbers of tickets we have been given. Doncaster in my email exchanges indicated that there is scope for extra tickets depending on how sales go. Hope he keeps to his word. We need to sell out our allocation as quickly as possible. If we do get extra these could go on General sale.

    He's lying, unless they're planning to build another tier on Hampden in the coming weeks.

    He said it in two separate emails so we have it in writing.
    So let's wait and see,tickets are to be sold in blocks which Hibs will have been told about this arrangement.

    I'm sure it'll go to public sale. Some ST holders just aren't going to ER this season (covid or other reasons) so I doubt they'll bother with this. Some will think we're beaten before we start. Others might just not fancy a day out in the weedge with all these Celtic fans hanging about. Some will of course let others have their client ref but I still think there will be tickets left.

    Think you might be right. The way the season's unravelling in the league will deter quite a few from bothering (myself included) plus it's an expensive time of year for those with kids. I think anyone who wants a ticket will get one without much trouble.

    Hibs took around 40000 to that final and there were plenty of tickets left iirc.

    I had to wait till last minute to buy my tickets and I can assure you that I contacted the club and was told there were no tickets left for sale.

    My Dad took charge of buying tickets for us and he took so long to get round to it that the whole 38,000 allocation were sold out, and we had to sit in the Livi end as well.

    I've never allowed him to be in charge of buying tickets since.


    Incidentally, there were quite a number of Hibbies around us

    And there were a few hundred in hospitality as well. Everyone at my table were in the same boat couldn't get tickets. Hospitality for that game was £120 plus Vat so not a bad deal. Need deep pockets now for hospitality.

    Sorry I'm a bit late to the show and it's probably been discussed.

    Have I got this right? There were 4 of us at the semi final, 2 ST holders and 2 non ST holders (who both have client references).

    Can 1 ST holder log in tomorrow and purchase 4 tickets?

    Incidentally, I'm a bit baffled at the ST + 1 myself and the thought of an ST losing out on a ticket isn't right, but is the above correct?

    Strange one mate there was about 47000 at that game, maybe they didn't sell part of the stadium, not calling you a liar btw

    A lot of Jambos too in the Livvi end

    There wasn’t. I had to take hospitality to get to that one.
