Not the first time that Hibs ticket allocation arrangements have been called in to question but there was never gonna be enough tickets to go round although I think Hibs could've taken out a lotta hassle and needless queuing by Hibs fans simply by setting up a priority/loyalty system that identified the 3k+ fans who would be given the 1st option to buy!

Agreed 0762. We now have "fans" already trying to sell tickets for vastly inflated prices........fans

There must be some sort of loyalty scheme to allow true fans who want to go to avoid this sort of shambles.

Good to see the fans getting more enthusiastic about coming out and supporting the side,but aye the organisation is once again found to be wanting.

I think Leeann's 'decision' to shut down the original loyalty pts scheme was a mistake! It was pointed out at the time by many critics that the scheme was not perfect but it was on the right lines and more of an effort should've been put in to enhance it and identify our most loyal ST members and 'walk up fans'! Hibs have effectively been 'found out' again with their revised ticketing arrangement which is worthy of the criticism emanating from various fans' groups. As for fans selling tickets for excessive prices, it is a violation of the conditions of the ticket sale and I'd like to see Hibs go proactive on chasing up some of these ticket sales incl the touting that will be taking place o/s Tynecastle - note the seat details and trace them back to the original sales! That could be easily actioned in a discreet way as well!

Note 'behind the goals' is another option for any Hibs fan without a ticket or just head for the Harp and Castle or similar where I'm sure there will be a great hibee atmosphere!
