Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
Surely the club aren't doubting that we'll sell 2800 tickets for a Boxing day game that's only an hour down the road?
Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
2500 away to Everton on boxing day seems very much achievable, however doubt anyone will be rushing to buy them 6 weeks before the game and for monthly paid people a week before they are paid.
Even more so when the better seats are the ones in the top tier which will be sold last...

Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
If people don't order in the next week the better seats won't be thee to be sold last so those who don't pre-order simply won't get one.MACCA wrote:2500 away to Everton on boxing day seems very much achievable, however doubt anyone will be rushing to buy them 6 weeks before the game and for monthly paid people a week before they are paid.

Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
But we'll only take the top tier if we've sold out the lower tier by next week. So people are going to be taking a big risk if they wait for top tier tickets to go on sale. I would have thought that most fans will feel that lower tier is better than no tier!MACCA wrote:2500 away to Everton on boxing day seems very much achievable, however doubt anyone will be rushing to buy them 6 weeks before the game and for monthly paid people a week before they are paid.

Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
By pre-sale I take it the tickets wont be sent out until later.
If the club said that in the event there is enough interest to take the larger allocation then the first say 1,000 would be allocated the top tier if that was the case would encourage people to buy in the presale period.And it rewards those who are willing to buy early with the best seats rather than the worst.

Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
Really? All this does is make it more likely we'll end up with a reduced allocation. Lots of people have just forked out for Spurs tickets, it's just before payday and it's too early to be thinking about Boxing Day. We'd have sold 2800 easy if sold the normal way.damo_whitehead wrote:Interesting. And a good idea in my opinion

Club have been criticised plenty times for taking too many or too few and are doing something about it in response which is great to see.jrgbfc wrote:Really?

I'vee already made my Christmas day and boxing Day plans and i doubt I'm the only one, remember this is to guage popularity.
Stand by this being the way forwards for when we have a choice of allocations

Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
I could understand it for some games, but for this one I didn't think for a minute we'd take anything other than the full allocation. I fancied going Everton, but am I bothered enough to chase my mates up for a game that's 5 weeks away, after just sorting Spurs out and spend 30 quid I haven't really got at the minute? I'm not so sure, and I bet there'll be plenty of others in the same boat.damo_whitehead wrote:Club have been criticised plenty times for taking too many or too few and are doing something about it in response which is great to see.

You won’t win some just love to whinge and whine. Tickets are £30 and some are making out it’s a second mortgage. Put it on your credit card and pay when your statement arrives if it’s too much and you really want to go. We had the complaints that the club better take the full allocation for villa and spurs which they did, they are now trying something new and more whinging.
Love the idea though that we would sell 2800 if we did it they way we always do it (despite them wanting that methods changed) but won’t sell out if people have to commit earlier
Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
Very true, just think its asking a lot after spurs outlay, Watford this weekend and it's a week before people get paid when the games 6 weeks away.Leisure wrote:But we'll only take the top tier if we've sold out the lower tier by next week.

I understand why they have done it, but I dont think you'll get a true reflection on interest than if youd have done it from say 1st-7th Dec.
Everton dont usually sell the top tier anyway if you dont take the full allocation do they?
Unless they will with being boxing day.
They're not the greatly supported club they make out.

Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
Everton will want the top tier for themselves.
The boxing day fixture is a massive tradition for football on Merseyside.
They could probably sell the ground out twice and not just cos we're rolling into town.

They even let you sell your STs or spares on Twickets to make sure seats are not left empty.

Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
Cramped bordering on dangerous that stand
Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
Everton are a fantastically supported club! Probably one of the best, especially when it comes to away games. This season they took 9000 to Wigan for a Mid-week friendly in the week before we played Wigan and took 900 in a Saturday! Probably the deadline for us having to say if we want the top tier is down to Everton, as they would have absolutely no problem getting rid of the top tier to their fans on Boxing Day.MACCA wrote:Very true, just think its asking a lot after spurs outlay, Watford this weekend and it's a week before people get paid when the games 6 weeks away.

Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
So can anyone buy a ticket tomorrow then?
Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
Yes they sell out away from home 99% of the time, and yes they are well supported.Leisure wrote:Everton are a fantastically supported club! Probably one of the best, especially when it comes to away games.
But they are not as great as they make out.
They usually don't sell out every game, and to say their ground is one of the smallest of the big 7 or 8, and come from a massive city, massive catchment area, + half of wales and Ireland, and are steeped in history isn't great.
Edit - 9th highest average attendance last season with 39,362, although WIKI says their capacity is 39,221 ( they had up to 39,400 on at times last season )
Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
Yeah I'd say this is more likely down to Everton pressuring us for a decision, rather than it being a new policy by us. Still amazed we haven't just taken the lot though, it's only an hour down the road. I'd like to assume that as long as we've sold a decent chunk by next Wednesday we'll take the upper tier as well.

I don’t get how they are doing it with no priority. Unlikely but what happens if they sell out tomorrow. Unless I’m missing something.

Dec.27th 1960 we won 3-0 at Goodison Park after losing at home to them the previous day, 1-3. Nearly 76,000 at Goodison and nearly 50,000 at Turf Moor. Just thought it worth mentioning.MACCA wrote:Yes they sell out away from home 99% of the time, and yes they are well supported.

Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
Do you not think the club are being a bit over-cautious? I know our away followings have declined a bit but I'm almost certain we'd sell 2,800 for a 3pm game on Boxing Day that's only an hour down the road.ClaretTony wrote:They are not doing - they are giving all season ticket holders the option to pre-purchase so they can determine which allocation to take.

If we don't take the upper tier I'll just spend the day in the pub instead, would rather be at the game but that's the way it is.

Apart from the fact the tickets wont arrive for a while, what's the difference between a sale of tickets and a pre-sale? Are funds only taken at a date in the future?
