High ticket pricing is another factor in this kinda criticism and it's been significantly pointed out in the national survey of Scottish footie fans and other Scottish fans' surveys in the past couple of years. It's also been raised at the past two Hibs AGMs and Hibs officials strive, in different ways, to attract more fans, and future fans, to ER Stadium - they've got a great stadium and top class facilities that the fans can utilise. So there's a good sales pitch there! The club regularly issues out free tickets to local schools within Hibs community and there are other marketing ploys that are utilised. As for attracting the bulk of disenfranchised adult fans, fleeting success is no good - we need more than that to bring back a bulk of the sceptics and these fans share enough sceptical views regarding Hibs failings down the years and the relative 'hurt' that has been engendered. Hibs FC has the power to significantly change that in a city with a continually increasing population but it will be a gradual process. However, the club needs more success in order to bolster this quest and change the culture at ER Stadium to a far more positive, forward-thinking culture. I've previously pointed out 'money buys success' but Hibs FC does not have the resources to buy that success in the way that we would all like to see it being done - buying in quality players, building up a quality 1st team squad to take on a full footie season. Doing it wisely and eventually being successful on all fronts in Scotland. Healthy attendances would consequently return to ER Stadium. It's a pipedream at the current time and we have to depend on our club officials working with the resources that we have available to us. Just look forward to the time when the Murray family join up with the collective charge on partial fan ownership of our club and then we'll see the footie 'renaissance' finally arrive at ER Stadium!
