It's cutting the bigots allocation which is also good in my eyes at all times. I'm sure there will still be 1000s of counterfeit tickets on the go mind you. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tackle Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Celtic fans complaining about the allocation on twitter has justified our decision, hopefully only Hibs get the full Roseburn from now on. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Personally I think that giving them the full stand gives them a footballing advantage as well. Fully onboard with the cut in allocation and hopefully it's permanent, regardless of whether we sell out the home end. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it strange to be that bothered about randoms on twitter that you would be happy to see your club miss out on a thousand paying customers at what I assume is 30 odd pound a pop. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will still be a crowd in excess of 18,000 at the game, £30,000 makes very little material impact on Hearts finances and I suspect that by kick off time tomorrow, there will perhaps only be a few hundred at most unsold anyway. Quite simply we don't need a full away end to run the club sustainably, and most our fans back the cutting of the Glasgow clubs allocations unequivocally. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Wonder Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Where's the chat we are giving free tickets away come from? Hadn't seen that anywhere else. Also, sales haven't been anywhere near as bad as made out, we'll maybe have a couple of hundred empty seats come kick off but that's close to 2000 extra Hearts fans and a much smaller allocation for Celtic, so completely the correct decision. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well played Where's this being reported? Last I heard tickets sales were chuntering along nicely (not that it matters - I'd rather empty seats than Celtic or Rangers fans. Only Hibs should get a full stand). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Celtic fans sensitive about ticket allocations, hearts fans sensitive about references to the minter element of their fan base, thread bubbling along nicely. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieThomas Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 No sure whether to be amused or offended that so many Celtic fans think 30k is a deal breaker to big baws Hearts. Jimmy Ando drops that out his back pocket every time he sneezes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think about in terms of not locking out 1000 or so potential future season ticket holders from big games then it might not seem so strange. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suspect it's an attempt to try and move the spotlight off the utterly horrendous crowds at Easter Road this season. A club that for the last decade have been trying to push free tickets on schools and boys' clubs, as though it were a ticker tape parade. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read some magnificent posts crying about other teams players getting away with fouls and not being carded all weekend. It is indeed glorious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
