Pictures from before the game, after the game and when Hearts were a few up. Aye that shows the full story. Check out the empty spaces in the Hearts section (upper tier). Shite support IMO.

Remember when Hibs had the largest support over both semi finals in 2005 and 2007, more than the likes of Celtic (twice) and Hearts.

Big team.




Good excuse.

Aye I'm sure every Hibby in the ground was seething with rage that there wasn't more people there to witness it.

Good bait.

Aye, we all just made it up. You've got me there.

I reckon we'll bring a good support to Hampden this year.

Why? is there a free open day or something?

With regards to this postal application nonsense, I'm afraid I don't understand why this is seen as the best solution by either Hearts or Hibs.

Both clubs use Ticketmaster eTicketing. Why couldn't Hibs, Hearts and Ticketmaster work together properly on this? Ticketmaster will have details of Hibs ST holders and Club Members, allowing Hibs fans to purchase securely online and surely it wouldn't take too much for the guys at Ticketmaster to divert ticket sales for this one event to HMFC directly?

Better, quicker and safer all round. Less admin hassle for HMFC, less concerns for fans of HFC. Then it can easily be reversed for the next ER derby.

Hibs and Hearts should seriously get a grip with all this postal applications nonsense. It's 2012 ffs!

Then don't. Nobody will cry any tears if theres one less pleb in the away end.

Funny how we didn't hear any Hibs fans bumping their gums when the shoe was on the other foot in December, but all of a sudden it's tears everywhere

[FraserHFC]

Absolute joke of a decision from both clubs. It's this sort of thing that puts people off going to the games.

Nearly. Joke of a decision from Hibs which Hearts have quite rightly returned in kind.

I think you will find it was a joint decision decided in December chum.

Is that so? I thought it was petrie's decision to have a cheap dig at us supposedly not being trusted to pay for the tickets.

Hearts were asked to provide a written guarantee that the funds would be transferred by a certain date and Hearts did not respond to this saying they would.

Galajambo, on 29 November 2011 - 14:01, said:

We've only got ourselves to blame unfortunately because both Hibs and Celtic asked for assurances that their ticket money would be paid by a certain date, and we couldn't give them that guarantee because of our cash flow situation.

Forever Hibs, on 29 November 2011 - 16:50, said:

They wont need to return the favour, because if they were to get in contact with Hibs and ask them for a guarantee, we'd actually reply back!

Happy Hibee, on 29 November 2011 - 17:31, said:

I would expect my club to explain to our support why the changes were taking place, especially when it's blindingly obvious that a lot of the support would be unhappy.

SodjesSixteenIncher, on 29 November 2011 - 17:34, said:

From board to fan level, the only people complaining about this arrangement are the Hearts fans.

We all don't know what's gone on behind closed doors, but for some reason the Hearts fans are in hysterics labelling this as a publicity stunt/undermining Hearts/profiteering etc. If it turns out that Hearts offered a guarantee on the money or to buy the tickets up front then it would be a strange decision to leave everyone out of pocket.
Until that transpires, Hibs don't have anything to prove to anybody.

Zeus's question still stands

Zeus, on 29 November 2011 - 17:05, said:

Does anyone have a link to where hearts did not reply about this guarantee?

I may have simply missed it on here or is it another supposition thats becoming fact on here?

[Akpo Sodje]

Why are Hearts selling direct? At least Hibs had reason to believe Hearts may not be able to pay for them. Are they just doing this to copy Hibs or be irritating?

A Hearts supporting friend of mine told me the Hearts ticket office have been telling supporters it was a joint decision from both clubs. Makes absolutely no sense to me as it's contributing no (or very little) money to the clubs whilst putting some people off going altogether.

Apparently David Southern said at the last AGM that Hearts weren't happy that Hibs had let the papers run with the story that it was because they were worried about getting money off Hearts so they've done it back to them this time.

I wasn't at the AGM and have no idea if this is true so I don't want anyone wetting their briefs over this post.

Considerring that the last AGM was in June I'd suggest that your source might not exist be entirely reliable

No it wasn't both clubs met to discuss it in December and came to the outcome of selling tickets directly in future. The end.

[HaikuHibee]

You are complaining about this?!?!?! Are you serious? Hibernian FC have taught our fellow Edinburgh compadres an important lesson; dinnae be dodgy. You are angry know, but when the next crop of Gorgie youngsters come through, not hassling wee lassies and getting paid on time, you will thank us. We do it because we care Hearts Daft, we do it because we care.

Some shite trolling going on from the Hibs fans in this thread. Far worse than usual.
