Worse run club?. Most clubs do this now.

Do they? So no preference to those who’ve supported the club through the past few horrific years.? No way of stopping away fans entering the ballot?

Hi,

Can someone please explain what's going on with this ballot? I've tried clicking on the link, but not showing anything.

Cheers

I was going to say, is it not a good thing for many fans who want to get an opportunity to go to a game but not attend all the time?

Yes, it'll impact on those who do not have a ST and attend regularly, but moving with the times I suppose: they want more fans willing to spend money.

Well it's pretty keen if an away fans wants to spend £60 on a forever Blue + membership to get a ticket in the home end.....
I mean to me it seems fair to have a ballot of all membera who apply and want a ticket rather then going to those with the quickest Internet speed or best 'bots'.

How can it be fair to those who’ve supported the team in recent years? It doesn’t stop the touts, in fact they’ll be quite happy. An away fan could enter all the ballots and easily make their money back even if they don’t get it for their own teams game.

Well how's that any different from last year? They could become a member for £35 and then go on the internet at 10am and take a chance on buying a ticket.
It's really not changed only all paid members now have an equal chance rather than the 10am frustration.
Are you wanting a priority system like for the Southampton game at Goodison - and slomly make it a closed shop like for away tickets? I think if they did that anyone who paid £60 to become a member would.be asking for their money back.

They did have a priority window last year based on home game attendance!
The Southampton tickets went to those who went to 15 games - seems fair to me??
Why can’t they just have a mix of priority and ballot?

Because it just becomes a closed shop. Folk buying tickets just to maintain priority and then flogging to mates in their networks. I prefer the ballot system and would have been annoyed if they used priority this year after introducing a new 'improved' more expensive membership without explaining that beforehand.
Maybe the club wants to move away from priority based systems that in any case become corrupted and they just want to get folk in that have the dollar to spend Some of the premium offerrings are eye watering and i giess its a race to sell thee tickets to those that can afford to pay....im not saying thats what i think is right....but If we want to become more successful we need cash!!

I am sure that there are fans on this forum that can remember the grey days when gates were below 15,000. When they used to advertise “get down to Goodison”
Jingle on the local radio.. Buying half season tickets. The club needs reminding of their fans back then, and have now become a tourist club, making up the numbers in the Premier League. Everton Football Club.

This ticket system makes us a tourist club like them but without the trophy's, anyone can buy a membership and have just as much chance of getting a ticket as someone who has invested in it for 4 or 5 years or more. Family's and mates will find it almost impossible to sit by each other, another master plan by Everton, they messed it up from the start, the ground should of been made bigger.

Why not the away tickets on the same system then.
