I'm guessing that you have to pay now, but we won't have been sent any tickets from Everton yet, so you'll get your tickets at a later date.Reckoner wrote:Apart from the fact the tickets wont arrive for a while, what's the difference between a sale of tickets and a pre-sale?

What are the options the club have btw 1,500 and then a further 1,500 or different?
To be fair its probably the worst ground in the division.
Think I've only had an acceptable view their once, and that was the 1-0 win game

I think the lower tier holds about 1800, with a further 1000 in the upper if we want them. Plenty of restricted view tickets in that lot as well though.MACCA wrote:What are the options the club have btw 1,500 and then a further 1,500 or different?

Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
So worst case scenario is we send back all 1000 extra at an average cost at say £22 ( kids, adults oap )
So could cost the club 22k if all the extra 1000 tickets dont sell

At least all the proper Burnley fans go to Goodison, unlike all the glory hunting (Liverpool are my 2nd team) types that go to Anfield.

Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
It wouldn't be anywhere 22k, as many more will go if upper tier seats are available, and many will also not want to pre order bottom tier ones.Leisure wrote:I can think of lots of better ways that the club could spend £22+k! Cheaper Twix for a start!
But I get your point. If there's the slightest chance of saving 1 x £30 from an un sold ticket, or upsetting minimum of 500+ fans it'll be the £30, and rightly so.
If it keeps the record profits up, and season tickets frozen everyone is happy.
( and for the record, I'd put the twix price up more, along with all the other food and drinks )
Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
When you think what the likes of Gibson, Vydra and Wells will be costing in wages for no return whatsoever the cost of a few unsold tickets would be a drop in the ocean for us.

All very well if your talking about 1 ticket,it’s the families who have to pay for 4 or 5 at once that have just shelled out for Spurs,inc travel and hotel costs.Maybe if it’s presale they could have put a holding fee down maybe 50%claretonthecoast1882 wrote: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

Again they could use their credit card if needed, There seems to be an idea that it is the same fans who go to every away game, there are plenty who said they wanted to go to Spurs but have missed out, then there are those who want the ticket system changed as they can't get tickets for away games this is their chance, finally there are those who want to take their kids but can't as they have different loyalty points levels so can't go as they wouldn't be sat together again this is their chance.
Now if the cost of 4 or 5 tickets is too much which for some it no doubt will be then it doesn't really matter when they go on sale.

Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
Great idea, why dont working class fans put BFC first and/or put tickets on a credit card, then the record breaking multi million pound football club can "possibly" save a couple of grand IF they dont shift the whole allocation.
Just read that back again once more.
Let it sink in...
That's really how some people think.
Another idea which could be better.
Take the whole allocation and offset any potential loss by putting up the kids Christmas party tickets.
Kill 2 birds with 1 stone then.
Either break even or make money
Or put up the premium phone number, and make all ticket office, club shops etc go through it so can make a few pound every time someone wants to contact any part of the club.
That'll be another great money spinner

Considering you think amazon prime is a con as they charge you £7.99 every month if you are incapable of cancelling I am not totally surprised a credit card being used scares you. You do understand that if you put say £90 on a credit card you get a chance to pay it off with no interest at a later date allowing you to have been paid. You can also use a debit card and pay there and then if you can stretch to it.
Should multi million pound travel companies expect working class people to use one for a holiday.

You do understand people have children, Christmas, bill's, food to but that comes before BFC dont you?
You do realise some people, probably a large percentage, dont have a credit card.
And why do you persist to try and belittle people when making a point? It's not very kind.
You should never use a keyboard and screen as an excuse to speak to people the way you wouldn't face to face.

For anyone intending to go I strongly recommend that you buy your tickets before the end of the pre-sale deadline tomorrow. If we haven't sold out the lower by then then the club will not be taking the top tier.

I've seen nothing on Social Media or the normal email from the club about Everton on pre sale. Saw this thread last week but passed over it and only read it today. Deadline tomorrow! A month in advance of the game!
Re: ARTICLE: Everton tickets to go on pre-sale
Will decide nearer the time whether to bother, if tickets are available great, if not I'll go the pub and/or watch it with a few beers.
Hopefully those that missed out for Sheff Utd and Spurs tickets can grab some for boxing day instead.
As long as all that want to go, get to go that's all that matters.

Deadline was dictated by the home club. The deadline is only for the decision to be made as to whether or not there is enough demand to warrant taking the top tier.

I can recall turning up at places like Barnsley and Boro for Boxing day fixtures and paying on the day. Made it far easier than having to buy tickets 5 weeks in advance, at a time of year when people generally have plenty going on. I still think Everton would sell out if we just sold the tickets the normal way. As it is our small time, penny pinching mentality is probably going to prevent 1000 Burnley fans from attending the game.Quickenthetempo wrote:Just what has happened to our away support?

The restricted view tickets won't be put on sale until the other tickets are all sold out, which means that we're still a few hundred sales short of selling out the 1st allocation. So not looking good for us taking the top tier tickets.Quickenthetempo wrote:On the website it says they are sold out, but it also says they can not be sold until all normal tickets are sold.
