Waiting List

[barneygumble]

My little lad is 5,500-6,000.

Put him on the day he was born. I expect the turnover of STs to change with the lure of Last Game/First game, and increasing prices. Hes still too young, so if he doesnt come off for 2-3 years I wont be too upset.

 

[wold1984]

18000 - 21000

been on the waiting list since 22 but only joined forever blue this year, that was a mistake.

Best start expanding that new stadium of ours

 

[atrottel]

Works now. 1 - 500 (member for 7 years - actually 8 but they lost one)

 

[Bayboy]

4 yrs a member. Now 6001 - 6500 on waiting list. In the summer, after Hill Dickinson st had been allocated, was just over 10000 on the list. Not sure where 4000 have disappeared to@@@

 

[Billy_whit]

Just checked my sons… he’s 7500-8000 with 4 years membership.

Had a look at email from April and he was 8500-9000.

I think there will be another couple thousand go off the list next season due to pricing and logistics.

Definitely. I can see plenty not renewing.

- People who were just holding on for one season at the new stadium
- ST prices (no doubt will go up)
- The effort of getting to the stadium
- The effort of getting to your seat for some!
- The return of Jack Harrison after losing Grealish

Etc

10001-12000, be a few years yet for me no doubt

Do you think it will be as many as 2000? I hope so my lad and me will be in if that’s the case, he’s 1500-2000. I’m 500-1000

i imagine there'll be a good few not renewing, but i doubt every single one will get replaced as a season ticket. as they'll want more day trippers in i imagine

I'm not sure about that. I mean they increased ST allocation for the new stadium and cleared a few extra thousand off the waitlist. I would be very suprised for them to do that and then allow the ST numbers to dwindle back to what they were at Goodison. Why bother increasing in the first place?
I expect that anyone who doesn't renew will be replaced with a new ST holders from waitlist. My guess will be 1.5k off the list for 26/27.

i think there would be huge backlash if we got a new stadium and nit a single season ticket holder but i reckon they werent happy with the already high percentage.

plus we increased capacity by 12k and only 3k were season tickets.

you'd like to hope they would replace them if anyone drops out but americans isnt it, they'll be looking to squeeze the coin and you make more money off a one off ticket and everything that goes with it

i think they need to be very careful and understand a large ST base is the key to having a full stadium and a good atmosphere as we are not a global media sky club, nor are we based in london or manchester, but billionaires be billionaires

The large STH base is the reason our stadium won't be full again this week, many STH's have bought tickets with no intention of attending every game, their tickets go unsold and their seats are empty.

Yup I'll be going for resale in future, ditch the ballot.
I wonder if they'll add seat moves into the mix next season... can't wait for that 'Everton that' b@lls up

Think it’s a lot more complicated than that. Saturday is another game moved for television. You don’t know anyone’s travel arrangements and what they might not be able to make to now.

I think the biggest issue this season is the club have made it more difficult for people to share their season tickets. So many now forced to use the resale site.

The resale site itself is limiting. You can’t buy concessions so it rules parent and child combos buying two tickets up - unless they drop 70 quid per ticket.

The resale site should have an option to sell a child’s as a child’s. It should also have the option for you to select sell at concession price which means you’re happy to take a loss on the money the club return to you in order to make a sale. Many people would rather get 20 quid for their ticket then nothing at all

Almost every seat I've bought through the resale site this season, the people sat near me have asked if I'm the STH. When I say I'm not, they tell me it's been resold every match so far, hence my opinion that people are buying STs with no intention of going to most games.

Even the Saturday 3pm kick offs have loads of tickets on the resale site so it's nothing to do with games being moved for TV.
