Last updated : 29 November 2016 By Steve Forbes

Hibs have announced that their season ticket sales figure has now passed the 11,000 mark.

Half Season Tickets are on sale and have pushed the figure higher than the 10,900 sold in the summer, with the current total now at 11,100.

Hibs CEO Leeann Dempster has revealed that the club is hopeful of breaking the club record for season ticket sales, which is 11,500 - set back in 2007-08.

Speaking yesterday, she said:

“Hibernian fans have consistently shown their determination to play their part in achieving promotion, which is really gratifying.

“As well as purchasing season tickets in such high numbers, supporters have grown their ownership stake in the club from 2 per cent to more than 30 per cent – way ahead of almost every other club in Scotland in terms of supporter ownership.

“On top of this, supporters elected two of their own to hold positions on the board of directors at the club for the last two years, and the process is now underway for supporters to vote for who they want to fill the positions for the next period.

“We are moving forward as one and I thank them all. Every penny they commit allows us to ensure we do everything we can to achieve our primary aim of promotion this season.”
