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

[Daytripper]

At least all the weirdos planning on taking "their" seat home with them afterwards will have lots of the afternoon left to enjoy sitting on it in their garden.

Probably the urinals and toilet seats too

Just got a ballot email confirming my 15 credits!

Hope whatever the club have got planned for afterwards is worth the crap ko time.

Won't matter TV channels will switch over

It's a load of cobblers. How does a 12 noon ko help Southampton fans ? No train from Southampton will get them here for that time so it's coach or car for them just as it would be for a late game.

Hopefully they'll take less allocation so more for blues.


Anyway it's about the party after in and out of the ground.

Just hope for good weather

Well, we have two games before this at 3pm so why not really make the most of those? The atmosphere has been flat at Goodison this season and would have thought it would have picked up around Arsenal but it's been terrible. Just because Southampton is last, we still have two 3pm games to really make a spectacle.

As it is on TNT and that is their only game you'd hope they'd keep going for a bit after the match.

Why did the club insist on it not being the last day.

Why did the fans kick off over the prospect of a night game.

Monday night would have been horrific and the very worst of all choices.

Double goodbye to Goodison and goodbye to Everton from the Prem would have been a fap fest from far too many little mings.

 

[Black Panda]

Personally it suits me better than a Monday night though a later KO time obviously would have been far better for soaking the atmosphere up pre match.

Glad there's finally some clarity and people can actually make arrangements though.

Interestingly we're having 1000 tickets be collection only which might put off those looking to sell on.

Won the last ever matches at Maine Road and Roker Park. Would be class to add Goodison to that list though obviously we weren't the worst top flight team ever for those.

I would have preferred Monday, so would plenty of people. You can’t please everyone but 12 on a Sunday is the absolute pits for me. A hell of a lot more people are due to be working at that time than 8pm on a Monday too, despite all the pearl clutching about playing on a weekday.

Sky get first pick and they've put Arsenal Newcastle on..then TNT have got our game but their game is the early slot. They should keep coverage on though afterwards.

At least on a Monday night most could finish work and soak up all the atmosphere with the anticipation building throughout the whole day.

12pm on a Sunday though? None of that anticipation. By the time people liven up the match will be over.

Is the coach getting in at 7am?

 

[Black Panda]

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

There's a few hours of celebration, planned for on the pitch after the game. Couldn't do that on a Monday evening.

If you can't liven up for the last ever game at Goodison you're probably dead.
