How many times have you seen Everton live?

Amazing. Could you pick a favourite moment in all that time? :)
Strangely enough it was winning the FA cup in 1984. After such a long period of total domination by the reds and seeing Howard assemble a rag tag team of has beens, crocks and no-marks (which is exactly what we all thought, despite what people may say nowadays), it was heaven to with the cup against Watford. Even though we did much greater things in the years after, it was that win after being so long in the wilderness that stands out the most!

I can empathise with the young supporters who have never seen us win anything for a similar period of time, but at least the RS have been shagite in that period too! Back then they were unstoppable and i truly couldn't see us ever getting back on top! But that rag tag team, with its hugely under pressuer manager steppd up to the plate and broke the strangle hold the RS had on football, joyous times and a lesson for those who are having hysterics because we didnt sign Messi! We need to sign the right players, not necessarily the best ones, which of us can honestly say we haven't? Incidentally, my dad is still a season ticket holder, at 84, and he was only saying last week he hoped Koeman could lift a cup with us, to kick start it all again, fingers crossed! :)
 
yeh probably about 30-40 times overall. My first game at Goodison was when we beat the Barcodes 2-0 to qualify for the CL in 04/05.

even watching on tele is tough. our broadcaster gives us quite a few games. we get the match day channel, official panel etc. then other channels show live games too, but Man utd, liverpoop, chelski and the arse take preference if there is some sort of clash, like midday Saturday, due to followers (but a true blue will always find a way ;)

my dad has made many trips to Goodison, but i am still yet to go. i will go very soon. especially if a stadium is on way. would wanna say goodbye to the ol lady)

would also be eager to move across to England for work, but as you all know. its quite tough to get, even ancestral VISA's aint what it used to be.

so thats that.

no games live, but confident it will happen many times in the future.

Good luck, hope you make it mate.
 
Once at Goodison (will make a greater number soon), Wien, Wolfsburg, Lille and Dresden. I was in London in 2009 when we played cup final but only watched game in the pub, so I'm not counting it.
 
First game was around 1994 against Palace (I think) when my dad organised for us to go into the players' lounge after the game, met loads of my heroes; Southall, Unsworth, Jackson, etc. Unfortunately Duncan was MOM and was doing media duties so didn't meet him. :( Last game (aside from Dresden Cup) was Stoke 3-2 last year or Leicester (also 3-2 wasn't it?) when we were giving away penalties for fun. Live abroad nowadays so don't get to many games. I reckon I've been to around 50-100 games in total.
