Is the ticket hub not the ticket office under a different name? Closed on a Monday though mate.

Oh crap... in which case, anyone got two tickets for literally anywhere in the ground!? Not had a reply from the T.O and can't see it suddenly working come 5pm...

Are we just going to keep the 3 sections above the Villa fans empty?
There's around 1000 seats there and if we can't or won't sell to Hibs fans we should've just sold to Villa fans.
BTW if there is no specific rule against opposing fans sitting behind each other then we should be opening up these sections to Hibbies.
Leave the front two rows of the top tier vacant and I don't see a problem.
It's a very common practice in England such as at Wolves and Newcastle and even at both Man UTD and Man City when huge travelling supports are allowed to sit above home fans at FA Cup matches.
I've never heard of any issues.

Nope just the bottom half next to the West. Only 1078 tickets for them.

In that case we could technically give them more.

Nothing official from Hibs but 5% of Villa Parks capacity is roughly 2100 tickets.

Players, staff and sponsors get their snip as well.

Won’t be many to go round on Wednesday.

Have any Edinburgh club members heard anything about applying for away tickets?

Didn't know that was a thing with hospitality members. Thought it was Hibs First and Sponsors only etc.

[B.H.F.C]

Just saw and email from the club to advise that all tickets will go off sale tonight and general sale will start 10am tomorrow.

[Nakedmanoncrack]

Latest email still giving incorrect information, not acknowledging the farce of on/off general sale from last week.

[Scouse Hibee]

General sale tomorrow from 10am for home game

Looked at the stadium plan last week for Villa Park and sections P9-P11 & Q1-Q3 in the Doug Ellis Stand were greyed out, so assume we are getting those sections (maybe)......

A bit of research indicates that all those sections is around 3000 tickets but that's a bit of a guess.

Besides, even if it is, we've given them the bare minimum so I doubt they'll be inclined to exceed the reciprocal minimum amount by nigh on 1,000 unless it's just too much hassle for them to segregate it (here's hoping).

As you say the 2,100 is more likely, 500 away to HF members, a few hundred away to sponsors etc. Likely to be only around 1,000 (maybe a nudge more) available to ST holders come the ST holder sale.

We'll see but I do wonder if the delay is because there's discussion and Villa are trying to get more tickets off of Hibs with a reciprocal amount being made available?

Regardless, I just hope my internet connection is up to it come sale time.... Or could we have a good old fashioned queue up overnight instead!!!!!!

Wouldn't be giving Villa fans much time to get time off work and transport sorted if that was the case!

Remember that they updated the system a few years ago so even if you do have a client ref from before, if you've not bought any tickets since the update then your client ref isn't valid anymore.
