Match Thread Everton 2-0 Fulham. Sat 8th November. 3pm.

[Verbal Kint]

Mainly just TWO reasons why! - Its only Fulham and the £70 ticket.

Has the new membership resale ticket put people off. The casual supporters definitely ain't paying that

I don't know if that's the case, you're saying hundreds of season ticket holders are relisting tickets coz it's only Fulham? Why would you buy an ST if you don't wanna watch us at home on a Saturday at 3pm against a team we could beat?

And those STH's will have paid about £40 a ticket not £70.

ST holders can pick and choose who they watch. Cash in, if they can't be bothered. Then the club puts them up for £70 and the hardened / principled buyers are miffed and won't pay it.

As FB members and on next block of ST releases I can pick and choose who I want to go and watch. I ain't paying £194 for 2 tickets inc travel to watch Fulham. 19 !!! home games is way to much money to be expected to pay AND - That's without any cup games! FB+ members getting ripped off even more as its £3,15p on top of any ticket bought whether win or lose in every ballot.

There's hundreds of tickets on the resale site, they clearly can't "cash in" this week.

If your a ST holder from London or Glasgow for example ( not everyone lives in Liverpool ) and paying astronomical travel and sometimes hotel bill's and you can get your money back on tickets if you couldnt really afford the ridiculous money involved, would you go watch the Fulhams and the Burnleys OR the Arsenals, Man Utds. City's. etc. Its an easy choice.

It's also the cost of travel and parking if not using the train. Not everyone lives on Merseyside. I travel around 45miles to get their now by train. Goodison was car. 2x £70 tickets plus rail and bus fare returns is around £200.

I wouldn't buy a season ticket if I only wanted to go against the big teams.

Hopefully being unable to resell their STs will force some fans who buy STS with no intention of attending most matches to give them up, then blues on the waiting list who will actually attend can get STs which will cut down on the empty seats and improve the atmosphere.

You said we’d get a second against Sunderland

Agree! As a Pensioner and Junior FB members supposedly on the next ST release I hope your right. At moment, me and the lad would need. even with discounted rail return tickets, around £194 if got no concessions on tickets for each game.

 

[the golden visionary]

Im gonna work, I'll be in a plant room so it'll have no signal.

Yersssss

 

[Blue Neon]

Hope the fans chant out for Charly. The lads come a long way to be left out in the cold and should be given more minutes. "CHARLY CHARLY ALCARAZ" - "CHARLY ALCARAZ" like at Sunderland. Make Moyes take note!

 

[banno]

I have a feeling we might smack Fulham tomorrow and I also have a feeling Barry (or Beto, whoever starts) will score.

I hope so but bad feeling only based on previous home matches against them. They have outplayed us over the last few seasons at Goodison so I am hoping HD will get us the result we so desperately need.

I have a feeling we'll smack them too.
A game that we've threatened once or twice but dropped off badly. This time they'll come good.

I think having David Moyes as manager will be putting people off as well.
Just boring football and shocking tactics

 

[knowing your history]

Most important thing here is Antonee Robinson I don't think is available. He always has top games up here, partly due to him being a very good LB nowadays and also not getting much chance, absolutely the type of LB needed to get the best out of Grealish every week.

I fancy a win actually given the season seems to be teetering towards another crisis. Fulham are no great shakes and have lots of injuries to key players. It will be tight but having had a dig in and cling on for 1-0 home win for months.

Also a bit like Brighton in always seem to struggle to beat Fulham at home yet never have an issue getting a result down there.

That was a great comeback win at the Cottage last May so mentally think that will play a part. Alcaraz also played a significant part in that so please Moyes see some sense and start him as crowd will get a big lift from that.
