REACTION: Everton Draw BSC Young Boys

[TraffordBlue]

I don't see us selling 5k for this but then again I thought we may struggle to shift the 3k v Chelsea given the form we've been in, being midweek and live on TV.

We sent tickets back for Chelsea, only taking about 2,200. Still a good turnout though and I don't think any club in the country bar the London clubs and the RS/United would sell 3,000 midweek for Chelsea in our circumstances.

Spurs haven't even sold their 1,800 allocation for Anfield and they're flying.

I only reckon we will sell about 3,000 for Bern which I think would be an excellent effort.

Defensive problems seem to have been cured
Will we be able to score against this lot??

 

[Pabbers]

Why do you think we have nearly sold the 5k? Did anyone confirm it in the Box office? Very decent turnout if true.

Well all the bottom tier was sold out a week ago, and at that point i had heard sales or 3 to 3.5k sold....2 weeks left till the game.

We took 3,000 tickets off Chelsea and the OS says the game is sold out so I'm not sure where you got your information from.

Probably making myself look like a clueless tit but do they do draws after each round bar the final?

Normally do but sometimes do 2 draws like what should have happened for this round, round of 32 with round of 16 to follow but for some reason they only drew one round,no idea why though!

We did initially but looks like we sent some back. On the Chelsea website it says that we returned some tickets.

Why would we be sending tickets back when we have to reimburse Chelsea for any we don't sell, especially with 3 days left to sell them? When I heard there were still some tickets left last week I thought about getting the day off and going. I was going to decide today or tomorrow but that is now academic, so I'd be annoyed if any had been returned early.

Presumably because the club didn't think we could sell 3,000 for it. Chelsea have started selling them to their own fans so if we hadn't sent them back, then as you said, we would have lost money.

I still think it's an impressive turnout from us.

It's true, the website did update to say weve got a 2,000 allocation instead of 3. It's still all of money, and a midweek in London, with YB coming up!

Every draw. A dead quick look on google (no sarcasm), says that the draw is on 27th Feb, so a week after the return leg, should we progress!
