Us or Everton because going on second round Everton fielded near on a first team. Can't see us making many changes. I wouldn't take much notice of ticket sales yet, remember we're Yorkshire folks who like to hang on to our money, majority of people will be purchasing much nearer time of game. I'll be getting 4 tickets later next week, we're all season ticket holders, just no rush to buy em. Attendance will be way off capacity but should still be near to our average league attendance of around 23,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would some moan if it had been blades not everton. Rather have the toffees than the other lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way is S6 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 What a frustrating situation for the club. A decent home fixture & our hands are tied from selling tickets by jobsworth idiots making a mountain out of a molehill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we have lost a generation of supporters what have got out of knack of going though pricing ,watching poor football etc . this game is pretty cheap but maybe the league cup don't have much or any appeal now? I be going as its not very often we get a decent premier league team at home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ash76 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Our fans are embarrassingly bad ’but but we took 85k yo Cardiff for league 1 play off final’ I wouldn’t actually mind so much if we didn’t big ourselves up all the time. A real annoyance I when everyone claps the attendance after its read out, cringeworthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had sold over 7k for the Barnsley match prior to SAG announcing their restrictions. No more North Stand tickets were sold. At the match when the limit (can't remember exactly but either 6.4 or 6.5k) had been let into the North others with either matchday tickets or season tickets were refused entry to the North and admitted elsewhere. I must admit from my seat on the South it looked like a lot more than that, but that is the official amount currently allowed in the North. Edit and the club really daren't allow anymore in as it's the Whole Ground which can potentially be closed if they do so.

They did say once tickets went on general sale they'd be some availability on North if some season ticket holders hadn't bought their own seat.

Mark Pembridge Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Last time Everton played at Hillsborough was league cup 2008 attendance was 16,463 Everton were only allowed west upper, it’s not like it’s a new thing.

meggoisgod Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Win Sunday and tickets will sell, we just need a spark I'm a ST in the north but I'm waiting to see how we play Sunday before I buy for this. I obviously went to the Luton and QPR games plus Preston and we were terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGaffer Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I'll be going but haven't bought a ticket yet. They'll be loads who are similar. It's not exactly going to be selling out but will be a decent crowd come kick off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
