Goodison Ticket Rules

[Famous Grouse]

Hi all,

I'm a blue from Aberdeen hoping to get along to the Lille game on Thursday. I've just booked my ticket for the lower gladys and I'm absolutely buzzing. The only problem is that I don't think I'll be able to get to the ground before about 7pm, and the ticket website said that tickets have to be picked up 2 hours before kick off.

Is there any way to get around this or have I just wasted £33 quid on a ticket I won't be able to get?

Cheers.

Nah mate. You can pick tickets up from the box office half an hour before the game.

You can get them later but the queues get massive, especially for non-season ticket games. I'd make the effort to be as early as possible.

The queues will be murder so get down as early as you can mate

You should be fine at 7pm, they're still usually passing tickets out 15mins into a game.

Just make sure you have your ID / card you used to buy the ticket with you, as the box office can be right sticklers at times.

Cheers for the replies lads.

Any advise on getting to/from the ground? I'm coming across from Manchester.

The season before last for the home game against arsenal, our scheduled early afternoon flight from Cork was delayed three hours, and we got to the ground after kick off. No problem picking up the tickets but we missed the first 15 minutes, and the Gooners were already one up.

Fell scored a lovely equaliser though!!

Train

Train

Victoria to Lime Street is 30-40 mins (check quickest one). The best getting a taxi, probably people at Lime St you'd be able to split the fare with

One thing to note is that you'll not be able to get connection between Piccadily and Victoria. Walk is about 15 mins

Train

Get off at Lime Street, either taxi, bus or train to Kirkdale. A taxi won't be more than £6. Or half an hour walk, I'd get the bus from Queens square myself.

If your getting the train fm Lime Street go to the Merseyrail underground station and go on the Wirrall Line to Moorfields, then you'll need the Merseyrail Northern Line to Ormskirk and get off at Kirkdale, or you can walk to Central station and get direct Northern Line Ormskirk train from there bout 5 -10 mins walk from Lime Street

there is a zipline thing set up in church street, it looks like a lot of fun but I'm not sure how far it goes

Get the 19 or 19A bus. 2 minute walk from Lime Street station (as you get out of the station go down the steps and keep going straight - cross the road and turn left), alot of buses go from there) - ask someone - it will be the first bus stop as you approach the bus stops. Bus will drop you outside Goodison Park at the Park end (other will be getting off the bus).

You can buy a PlusBus ticket with your train ticket which will can be used for buses 19 / 19A.
