Obviously people with # amount from last season get their own window 24 hours in advance of just members which is why they get a ticket no bother to build up the credits.
Ah didn’t realise. Thanks for explaining.

I think membership has turned into the aways now though.

People just buy tickets to get and keep their credits, with no real intention of going to all of the games.

Can't complain too much, I'm in the auto-cup scheme for similar reasons.

Has anyone had an email regarding 'suspicious activity' applying for the ballot. We've had our application suspended until we provide photo ID or our application is scrapped. I've just rung the club and they say they need the ID... they never asked when we paid for the memberships. I only got the option for adult tickets at the time, yet we're both members

Thankfully not, but it's good to see they're actually looking into things

Yeah, I haven't had it either. Take it as a positive though that they're going about it the right way.

Not sure after the event is the right way though. It was hard enough applying and then to ask for ID when it's never been asked for before seems daft. Also, why adult only tickets when there are thousands of young members attached to an adult membership? If we're successful they said he'd be charged as a junior...

£1,430 https://www.livefootballtickets.com/fix ... eague.html

9 tickets on there.

What's to stop the club from buying them up, getting back the money back from the original ticket holder, banning them and re-selling the ticket themselves?

4 here. https://www.stubhub.ie/everton-fc-vs-so ... 106424039/

Last one even has the seat number on it. I've emailed it to the club.

I love my club, arguably more than is healthy, but there is not a chance in the world I would pay £1000 for a ticket

Fair play, the one with the seat number is gone now. Given it was the most expensive then I assume that's the club's doing.

Nothing. They've apparently said they will act on stuff like this. Before the digital age I'd have arranged a meet to buy them. Slapped him if he expected more than twice face value.. I wouldn't be caught. Today, it's totally possible, hence the food robber banned

If the food robber had just kept his mouth shut he'd have gotten away with his pastry, instead he's made himself a massive doughnut.

The desire for clicks on social media. He may as well have written a confession 🤣🤣
