santaponsasaint Posted September 15, 2021 Report Share Posted September 15, 2021 Problems with getting tickets could see the worse away support at Easter Road in many a year. Utter shambles. Surely St.Mirren and Hibs must realise not everyone supporting the clubs come from Paisley and Edinburgh. Even our supporters bus is struggling to fill a bus. And that's never happened in recent years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was never my point. I understand that. Was the fact fans could only get tickets if the go to the ticket office. Which closes at 2pm or what if your not from the Paisley area and struggle to get to the ticket office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good player as he is , I see a change in attitude with him , as if he's biding his time for the off ! You may be right but there is a decent player in there.

Scott-Leeds Posted September 16, 2021 Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 I’ve been told they even have some unisex toilets in some restaurants, so you should be ok. [emoji23] I’m not certain, but if he goes to a fine eatery while there, I think he’ll need to be flush.Hibs 3-1 Saints Or is my prediction pish ?

W6er Posted September 16, 2021 Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 (edited) I predict 2-2. I have the worst seats for this one - down at the front. I hope there aren't overly officious stewards who make you sit in your actual seat!

Is it only actual tickets for this game rather than e-tickets was just toying with idea of the game 1. Because St Mirren are my team and 2. Its another away game after 18 months without but im working from home and live in Lanarkshire so no chance of getting through to get a ticket.

And the Away end won't be sold out this Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no etickets for this game that I've heard of bud. As far as I know it's only match day tickets. I'm lucky in one respect that I live 10mins from the stadium. But it's a rubbish situation if you don't live so close and want to attend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beyond our ken Posted September 16, 2021 Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 (edited) the late release of tickets means that I cant attend one of the few games that sit within travelling distance for me. Not allowed to venture as far as Paisley for health reasons and the club waiting to Tuesday to open the sale precluded delivery by post before Friday Edited September 16, 2021 by beyond our ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W6er Posted September 16, 2021 Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 @santaponsasaint @Clydebanksaint @beyond our ken I totally understand your frustrations regarding the lack of e-tickets for this yin. However I 'm not sure this is the club's fault, rather it could be Hibs'. The delay may be Covid related, especially as many clubs have had to have got the go ahead to allow bigger crowds from their local authority. We're selling tickets directly to away supporters through our website, and I can't see why Hibs couldn't do this, too. It might have been too late for us to risk posting them out, which would be the only way if they're physical tickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say Hibs could have made at least 1 section avail for e ticket on their site. Livi did it for the cup, its simply not viable for me to get to our ground this week at all before Saturday to collect a ticket. I would have been doing my usual and used a supporters bus to go as its much better than making own way to game sounds silly as its only 11.50 return from here to Edinburgh but its just never the same lol.

To be fair the club could/should open the ticket office for a couple of hours on Saturday! I don't think we have sold many, judging by the ticket numbers I have - 130ish.

Scott-Leeds Posted September 16, 2021 Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 I might be wrong, but I don’t think there is any financial incentive for our club to sell tickets on behalf for away games.We struggle to sell home tickets for home fans, away is a step too far [emoji2] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santaponsasaint Posted September 16, 2021 Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 Ticket office at SMP open between 5pm to 8pm tonight. Don't know if this is any good to anyone. Hope it is. Coys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donport Posted September 16, 2021 Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 Can't blame McCarthy for being a bit miffed given his good form last Season, then finds himself benched for Dunne! It might be tough watching this game trying tell who is St.Mirren A & who is St.Mirren B ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
