    I’d put 800 in the corner where we were. I know there are no seats and they’d be behind a wall, but still…

    Should we be looking to cut their allocation to 1500 for our game against them. Fill the ground with the good guys 🇳🇬
    Give them the same 2% of the capacity that they give us.
    400.
    Then its over 19500 Hibs fans roaring us on to victory.

    Why? Our 2% went to general sale.

    You’ve just made that up. Multiple teams change the allocation on offer over the course of a season - us included. Aberdeen for instance gave Motherwell less than the usual allocation for the game the other week
    And st Johnstone on Sunday gave celtc 3 stands for the title winning match....

    Oh wait. 🤣
    There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

    Folk complaining about our allocation for Ibrox.
    Saturday 3 o'clock kick off, on the best run of most of our lifetimes and great chance of getting a result and we still struggled to sell our allocation.
    Give them less tickets by all means but saying it's because they only give us the same percentage is just daft.

    Most folk can't be bothered with the hassle that attending these games bring and the toxic atmosphere and behaviour of the Hun neanderthals.

    It's particularly uncomfortable when there's only circa 900 of you.

    Our small allocation at Ibrox, generally, makes it an unenjoyable experience, and, as shown at Parkhead a few weeks ago, it immediately becomes a more enjoyable/safer experience when there is considerably more tickets available.

    Are we going to let the gadgie who was sitting all alone at hunbox in?

    Or is he still there waiting on his new pants to arrive?

    We sold out the allocation, and getting more Hibs fans in those south stand seats is much better for Hibs on every level.

    Yes sold out, but there wasn't a clamour for more tix. We sell 3000 tix for Tynie quicker than the 800 for Hunnery

    No but the point is, the allocation we receive for a league match there is suffice. Don't normally see any posts on .net saying any spares for Ibrox. Tynie is a 2-3 pager.

    Still dont see the point, we dont have 2 or 3 pager for tickets at Dundee either, but if we can sell half the south stand to Hibs fans when we play Dundee or Dundee Utd, then we should, even if it restricts their support from coming?

    And the same point stands with the huns.

    And your point is 🤷*♂️We can fill the stadium with 98% of Hibs fans no problem for this game.

    No you don't see it for any game apart from Tynie as supply meets demand

    Why wouldn't we? That lot are our rivals, rangers aren't.

    I'd much rather go to the pink bus shelter than castle grey skull. Easier to get to, better boozers, atmosphere and game all tend to be much better.

    Think we will be away to Celtic but my point was more that we shouldn’t be making differences between them...we announced a reduced allocation and the shut off bottom corner blocks for Rangers but not Celtic...whatever we are doing should be for both in my opinion
    I agree but also disagree as it winds the Huns up something wicked.

    We do t have to be fair. It’s our stadium. Do what ever gives the team on the pitch the best advantage.

    Please not a Wednesday night though!

    If our Ibrox allocation doubled, we'd still sell it out. We take more than that to Aberdeen and Dingwall ffs.

    The absolute dire thing about going to Ibrox is the audacity they have to close the gates and lock away fans in 15 mins before the end of the game and hold them there until they deem it’s safe to left them out. Utterly ridiculous and shouldn’t be allowed.

  25. #54
    If the demand is there from Hibs fans then they should be the priority. I supposed from a business perspective you have to factor in the additional stewarding and Police costs but if the seats aren't just sitting empty then that may be worth it.

    It's game we are highly likely to have demand outstripping supply so look after our own. They always say they will boycott or whatever next time we give them the full allocation but they never do so it's not even a consideration.

    If Hibs did split the South Stand, we'd have to take into consideration that there would be a few hundred seats left empty for segregation, so that would be additional income missed out on.

    Plus the behaviour at games in recent times, from certain Fan groups, has gradually worsened so stewarding/policing could be a problem.

    Ah because we are now winning. Go back the last 10 seasons and the Ibrox allocation was more than enough. So now we are winning we are entitled to more tickets.

    Jeezo we couldn't even sell our allocations when we go to Hampden for semi finals.

    Etc etc

    Pretty sure we've taken more than 900 to Hampden on every occasion so that's bat**** argument to make.

    When did we last take less than 900 to any away game? We have a pretty hardcore away support who will travel no matter how the team are playing.

    Are you seriously suggesting Hibs couldn't sell more than 800 tickets to Ibrox?

    Strange.

    There's been games at Ibrox in the past when we've only sold half that.
    Always been easy to get tickets for Ibrox up until the championship years than it was impossible. Back to going to general sale now and no problem getting a ticket. The demand for 1500 tickets on Saturday simply wasn't there.
