Match Ticket Requests/Spares Thread

You have to BUY food!! At those prices? 10% off is like having 200 of those tickets from fruit machines in Rhyl.. you go to get your prize and it's any flavour Chuppa Chup lollipop
This is what we've bought into. They couldn't do it at Goodison

I would imagine only away fans and tourists would pay those prices, would imagine that now that things have settled down members are able to buy regular priced tickets bar the odd game.

I think they do all the hospitality at the club. The £450 ticket for the derby is a normal seat in Block 229 above the away fans, a tenner food voucher, a programme, a 10% discount in the club shop (must be used on the day) and a 10% discount on stadium tours, that's it. I see there's only seven seats left but it'll probably be full of kopites.

I know it's the first derby at HDS but it's a disgrace, I think the same tickets for Burnley were £129, some games may have even been cheaper due to kick off times etc.

I bought two tickets at £149 each there for the Newcastle game as a present for my nephew. Imagine paying £149 per ticket to see your team get battered 4-1! A good amount of fans around me were 100% Newcastle fans. I was very disappointed the seats weren't any different, there was no concourse separation or anything at all extra above a regular ticket bar the pointless benefits you mentioned Gash.

For the derby it is going to be full of Liverpool fans, absolutely no doubt about that, so the club has just given almost a full block extra to away fans (although you're not meant to wear colours in that section).

Club just see it as extra revenue, but I think it is a massive rip off for any Everton fans from abroad or not, and completely open to abuse by away fans.

Where is the block? Is it 229?

Yep

Seems there is much better food and beverage outlets in that part of the concourse, might wander round there from block 237 as just crap near 237.

Surely, surely, that's not real?
There's a stipulation saying you can't wear an Everton shirt in a, technically, home section of Everton's home ground?

It's shite. Another thing to deal with over the summer

[Escalator]

Don’t think that’s true.

Only the same as the corporate areas.

Yeah, that's what's shocking me - corporate sections aren't technically home sections.- I thought this was.

[Gash]

It's no away colours allowed.

2 seats left, £550.80 now if anyone fancies being really ripped off. That's tout levels to watch a game, absolute disgrace.

Seat Unique is just branded, professional touting, glossed up as a VIP service

Pretty much, it's not even like it's a brilliant seat on the half way line or anything, it's shoved up in the corner above the away fans. Even with the discounts, food voucher and programme at £550 it's probably about 5 times more than it's value.

Just part of the modern game now unfortunately.

To clarify, you can’t wear away colours. Home shirts are ok but you’re supposed to be smart casual.

“What is not allowed: Away team colors, casual sportswear (shorts/tracksuits), ripped jeans, flip-flops, and offensive clothing.”

The fact they even mention away colours just shows it’s a free for all, and it’s expected away fans will sit there.

It’s shit.

[Paddockoldie]

Reminds me of 80's hooligans.. no colours, smart casual and go in the home section. Only the price reduces this risk
