Thats right, and we also dont charge more money for sitting further up in the same section of the stand, or use pretendy phrases like "upper section".

Insert Amusing Pseudonym Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 £31 is a farce and as long as us mug punters keep paying it it'll keep going up. All fans should be keeping up the pressure on the clubs to lower prices 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TheJTS98 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 (edited) It's a scandalous amount to charge for a Scottish football match, but the only option is to not pay it. I think it was 24 or 26 and no concessions for the 6-2 game at Easter Road in 2000. Miles above the going rate of the era anyway. The Hearts end was more or less empty that night, and that's the only meaningful response. There needs to be a more coordinated response from fans to this nonsense. There is absolutely no point in complaining about the price but then paying it anyway. If you're going to pay it, then clubs will argue they're right to charge it. The game on live tv with an empty Hibs end would make for quite uncomfortable viewing for Hearts/the league and would get attention in the media and provoke a discussion about pricing. But that won't happen, so moaning about it is a waste of time. Edited August 31, 2021 by TheJTS98 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leith Green Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Re the ticket prices, last time I was there - 26th December 2019 - we paid £34 each in the Roseburn, so they are actually slightly cheaper this time if the £31 is accurate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the BoE £26 would be about £43 in 2020 money So possibly people staying away worked 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't you heard about the gentrification of Leith?
