This, can't see their stadium move bringing anything other than a price hike. As it is, since I drive, trips to Pittodrie can cost me over £50, once you also factor in food etc., if the new stadium brings that up beyond £60 then I'll be giving it miss apart from the initial time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCR Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I’m still annoyed at Dundee charging almost Premier league prices! £24 this season is shocking for Championship football Hibs v Hearts was £28 for away fans (full price) in the championship: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCR Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 They're charging home fans £29 for the top tier aswell, so seem to get away with it. They were at it last season too. No idea why their logic is to rip off their own fans, purely to rip off away fans, but there you go.Hearts don’t have that many walk up fans I’d imagine, vast majority of the Tynecastle crowd have season tickets. Walk up prices are such that you can miss 6 games and the season tickets is still cheaper. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the season tickets for the upper sections behind the goals are slightly more expensive than those on the halfway line in PerthThere’s certainly an element of this thread that boils down to small town bumpkins moaning that things are awfy expensive in the big city. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The complaints are Hearts, at some point in the past 12 months, have randomly decided to refuse to sell away fans regular tickets, and instead only sell increased price ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it, as we never charge home fans that apart from Old Firm games, you'll have paid £23, same as adult home fans. If you take an under 16, you'll get in for £16, like the home fans. Tynecastle, though, has away fans paying more than home fans, in the same stand. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 How many of those prices are higher than what away fans get offered? Roughly 60% are more expensive. 10% are the same price and the remainder are cheaper although not as cheap as the ones at the front of section M you were wanting to buy. Given that the cheap seats at the front of section G have been closed off recently because of bad behaviour those proportions may have changed. The numbers will be similar for the New stand but there will be more platinum seats The seats at the front of Section M have been unavailable for supporters of some big clubs as well lately thanks to arseholes amongst the visiting support I’m not a club spokesman but I’d speculate that the decision to not make them available to fans of clubs whose support will fit into the top section is probably as much driven by policing and stewarding as it is by trying to squeeze every last drop out of the Perth pound 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when I used to go to Parkhead back when we were SPL and the price was a fair bit cheaper if you bought restricted view. You then just sat where you liked. I assume Celtic have caught onto this and only drop the price a little for RV. I also remember playing Celtic just after the Old firm and some seats were missing. Fans were told to still sit on them even though they weren't there. Edited September 8, 2019 by Gaz FFC 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I noticed they had the barcode readers and not a person at the turnstiles I started buying concession tickets for Parkhead. f**k em 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
