    It could’ve been undone - tickets could’ve been cancelled. Like what Villa are doing for their home game.
    Is it actually confirmed that Villa are doing that beyond internet hearsay? Even so, it's not comparable unless we're expecting that hundreds of Villa fans benefitted from the cock up? (Which is impossible thanks to needing a purchase history etc)

    Zero chance of Block7 having tickets together at Villa Park if they're in the scramble today.

    We will see.

    Not really.

    They'll all have each other in their networks, agree a place to buy and everyone will try at the same time.

    Max of 6 tickets can be bought in one transaction.

    Which would work if we were able to choose seats but we don't have that system in place on the eticketing site for this one. It's max 6 tickets and choose a section. You're then randomly assigned rows & seats.

    I guess they could all roughly be in the same area, but then you'll have others buying in that area. Plus the tickets will go in 5 mins.

    There is absolutely no chance they will be lucky enough to just so happen to get tickets together at Villa park in todays sale. Its impossible, so if they are all standing together then that raises another question. Were they sorted out? Or have they just piled into an area they fancy? If they are in the lower tier you will know theres nonsense going on.

    You'll be lucky to get two together today never mind 50-100 altogether.

    Your getting worried about something that hasn't happened after getting worked up about something else you heard that hasn't happened

    Judging by a) KP's clear answer earlier in this thread and b) reports of their previous behaviour towards other Hibs fans, the "pile into area of their choice" option is the most likely one *if* that comes to pass, which I doubt it will.

    With the game absolutely sold out, that could cause friction in the home stands before the game even kicks off. Hope everyone behaves themselves and sticks to their allocate seat, wherever it may be.

    The piling into whatever area they please pish needs to GTF.

    If I’m lucky enough to get tickets today then I want to be there, enjoying it with the people I bought tickets with, not ending up dotted round the away end trying to find whatever seat some coked up fanny has decided they don’t fancy.

    I thought you said you hadn’t renewed your season ticket this year?

    Surely you’re not planning to use someone else’s client reference number to jump the queue and deny a genuine season ticket holders a ticket?

    I’ve not renewed. 20 odd years up until this season I had a season ticket and I won’t be renewing. I’ll no doubt still be along to most games but I simply haven't particularly enjoyed going to watch Hibs for a good few years.

    same. I’m in section 43 so… hope all goes well.

    hope the young boys actually have seats and are not copying the OF tactics…

    They're meaning the away game.

    B7 have the habit at away games of all just piling in wherever they like - saw it up at dingwall last season.

    They won't get tickets together but will take others seats as they do at all other away games. There is no ticket conspiracy just a bunch of young guys who think they are the only supporters that matter.

    Thats exactly the type of thing that needs stopped by the club. Threats of intimidation and abuse towards other Hibs fans should be met with a ban on tickets for them until they learn to behave.

    It’s all online - youd basically extract the data into a spreadsheet out the back of the data and identify which ST bought more than 1 and which non ST bought a ticket before yesterday. It’s ticketmaster we’re talking about here - not some tinpot organisation.

    I know it would've been technically feasible but once the loophole was open for more than about 10 seconds, the genie was out the lamp and whatever route Hibs chose would've been a PR cluster ****.

    All hypothetical now mind, the game is a sell out with the most Hibs fans in attendance at a game since the late 70's.
