Final game at Goodison - confirmed Sunday 18 May, 12PM

I imagine there will be things going on after the game in the ground, hence an early start to fit everything in

Had an email off the club yesterday with a link where you can put your membership number in. It will tell you how many credits you have, if you are eligible for the ballots and then what ballot you’ll be in. I was worried about resale tickets not being included, but all of mine are in there.

Here’s the link

Absolutely no chance they go to the 2nd ballot. Plenty of people in the 1st ballot won't get one.

I’ll be having my traditional pre match curry and chips at about 8:30 am at this rate.

This is my biggest grumble. I appreciate it's better than a Monday night, and it gives time afterwards, however it gives no chance to enjoy our final match routine.

We will be in the pub at 10am at this rate.

Find it odd that Sky passed it up really. Thought they'd be all over it.

They picked Arsenal-Newcastle as their main pick. Then TNT picked Everton as theirs. Doesn't help that neither team are playing for everything, Sky will be hyping up the CL race.

I'm sure the fans will do what they can but you can only embrace a 12pm kick off time so much. Not even your typical 12:30pm kick off. The last game at Goodison Park shouldn't have been at this time but it's what the modern game is.

If it was any other weekend, bar the last day, it'd be 12:30 Saturday (on TNT). The FA Cup final meant no Saturday games.

Didn't the club request the last home game not be on final day? Had it been it'd be 4pm Sunday.

I don't know if it's been mentioned (probably) but why don't they televise the game in the fan plaza at BM for all the folks who show up to Goodison just to be there but don't have a ticket? Could act as another test event for similar events we should be holding in there.

It’s not about the actual match though, really or even BM. It’s about being in or around Goodison on the day. There’s plenty of ale houses by Goodison to watch the game in and then hang around in afterwards. Would feel a bit soulless, personally, standing outside BM watching on a screen.

County Road be booming that Sunday

A lot of the pubs— I believe—are opening up at 6-00am on County Road for one final big pay day!

11 home matches for myself in ballot 2, no hope whatsoever I will get a ticket, cannot even get one for City or Ipswich !!!

Me and my 2 lads are in the 2nd ballot so we need 3. Never happening.

I feel my last game will have been the Bournemouth fa cup tie.

It'll be interesting. There were always some, not loads but always some, tickets left on the Tuesday after the Monday 15+ last season crowd got theirs. Up until Leicester they took a little while to sell out too, it wasn't instant like the last few weeks.

Considering the random nature of the queueing system and the resale tickets, there can't be many of us who scraped 15 from the Tuesday open to all members group. There could be a SMALL set of tickets for ballot 2

Will Greggs be open?

I wonder what time the Hot Wok opens of a Sunday.

A tribute featuring former players would be a nice gesture, but I’m not expecting anything too elaborate, Surprise me Everton.

When will we know if Southampton are taking full allocation? That could help some people in the ballots if they only take the lower tier which they normally do. Also 12pm on a Sunday surely they don't take full allocation
