Match Ticket Thread - Spares/Requests - FACE VALUE OR LESS ONLY!

Afternoon all. I have a number of questions you may be able to answer for me. I joined the Forever Blue Plus membership at the start of the season so I could enter the ballots. This HAS been worthwhile as I've been successful a few times and was lucky enough to get a ticket for the opening game against Brighton. Since those first few months, I've found it pointless entering the ballot (as you can't choose your seat) but now buy on resale where I want to sit (granted it's a choice of what has gone back on sale but most games now I find you can now get tickets in any stand). I bought my wife a membership but the cheaper Forever Blue one at £35 and she is now able to come with me and sit next to me through resale tickets. I'm wondering if next year, it will just be worth buying two Forever Blue memberships (this year would have been a total of £70 for the two of us) and just buying from resale? I realise games like the Derby I'm unlikely to get a tickets (or tickets) for but it now almost feels like it was at Goodison a few years ago when you could buy individual game tickets. Both good and bad I guess (great for us fans who can't attend every week but bad as in the club may start to struggle to sell out every game).

I would say there's many thinking the same, including ST holder's, considering Nottingham and Arsenal have plenty going.
I would not be surprised if the club are also realising this and rules (membership pricing/structure) changes too

If things stay the same then I guess it's just matter of whether you want the option to go in the ballot for the trickier games to get tickets for and if you feel the forever blue plus is worth that price over just forever blue and only you can answer that question really.

I wouldn't really give it too much thought till next year's ticketing/membership information is announced though as things could change regarding how the club sells.
 
if the club are going to take on any feedback the ballot needs ditching

and the demand simply isnt there

they also need to at least freeze prices, if not reduce them. new stadium or not £71 is a farce and we will end up with a half empty stadium
