Why would that number turn up? They'll have been told that it's a ticket only match. I suppose if a few turn up without scarves they'll take home end tickets but they risk being ejected from the ground. We certainly won't see 1400 ticketless Hearts fans turning up for an all-ticket match where they've sold their entire allocation in advance.

Continuous abuse and a sense of self importance just because he goes to games. FYI. I go to most games but have the sense to realise that not every Saints' fan is able to do so. I have only popped in here occasionally in recent times and EVERY time I have I have been confronted by at least one attack BY YOU on FS about games he doesn't go to. It's a pity you can't think of anything constructive or sensible to write about in your sad, lonely existence so have to bait to attract attention.

Isle Of Bute Saint Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 Last week friends of mine phoned Hearts to get tickets for this game. Hearts use a point system so they were told to phone this week in case there were tickets left over. They got tickets no problem so away end not sold out as of yet.

The point was initially raised by another poster that Hearts took that number to Motherwell. Personally - well behaved fans from other clubs are welcome wherever they sit. Fans of any club, including our own, on the other hand not so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd settle for either figure. To go from 3,000 to 3,600 to 4,457 to 5,536/5,700 in successive seasons is no mean feat. Having record season ticket sales was also good but (IMO) would have been higher if: 1. We had started selling them earlier. 2. We hadn't had the managerial changes. 3. We offered credit terms from the off. Clearly prices didn't seem to deter people. There was also the question of the family stand and accommodating the OF. Good to see so many people from away teams coming as well as our own fan base turning up in larger numbers. December might be a tougher month however with 7 games during the month and Christmas coming up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Arthur Blair Posted November 25, 2018 Report Share Posted November 25, 2018 5177 there 1750 Hearts, poor St Mirren turnout That figure is wrong. The crowd announced at the game was 5787 with 1500-odd Hearts fans, therefore over 4200 home fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shull Posted November 25, 2018 Report Share Posted November 25, 2018 Some of bigger away supports mean successful away teams. Nothing to do with us whatsoever. If Hibs and Hearts carry on with their present form, they won't sellout our North Stand next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add Aberdeen to that List Shull. 4000 plus home fans is pretty good. Stay up, make it to the top 6 and this might grow to 5,000 over a couple of seasons. Then we would really be motoring. I'd like the board to be more inventive with season tickets. Edited December 4, 2018 by St.Ricky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud the Baker Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 On 9/13/2018 at 1:51 PM, Bud the Baker said: We averaged 5609 in 2006/07 last time we were promoted, admittedly Love St. had a larger capacity but I believe weve sold a record number of Season Tickets this time so I'll be disappointed if it's not above 5000 maybe nudging 5500. The attendance against Livi was 4347 so the average is almost bound to be above 5000 going into the split - after that it'll be dependant on who we play & the importance of the matches. Going into the split the average is 5296. https://www.footballwebpages.co.uk/scottish-premiership/attendances Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
