I will also say that our season ticket holders (minus one thousand) bought and kept on their ticket in circumstances way removed from Liverpool’s. I don’t understand why it’s an issue that that loyalty gets rewarded (to a limited extent- pisser for anybody who has a season ticket but can’t make midweek games). @bobbydazzla Is spot on to point out that members who went to each cup game got shafted. I don’t really know how to solve that issue. But I don’t see why season ticket holders who went to cup games should be the ones to lose out.

A season ticket holder who didn’t go to cup games got put into Pot 6. Only season ticket holders who went to cup games got any advantage. I think members got a shit deal in general but not to the advantage of season ticket holders. Season ticket holders are supporters who have paid lots of money over a large period of time to continue going to games, often in fallow times. This is what is being recognised when they get priority in cup fixtures. It’s a pretty basic tenant of most if not all clubs’ ticketing arrangements and for obvious reasons. The real issue here is putting all the members into the same draw. That is what is unfair, and it’s just laziness on the part of the club.

Well, likewise, why should buying a ticket for a home game qualify the buyer for anything other than access to that home game?

They didn’t get priority did they? I thought they were in pot 6 too?

How come you could apply for your own and this one?

Am I missing something?

Is this the first pot members can apply in? That’s a bit wild. They might as well not bother with staggering the season ticket ballots in that case

Find it a bit of a mildly embarrassing feature of both our own and Sunderland’s trips to Wembley to be honest.

it doesn’t look that much different though does it? They still get outplayed and defeated in pretty much every game.

I know that we get told off by @LFEE for talking about this, but what happened in 2023 was they gave pots 4-6 different entry dates, but then did the ballot when all the names were entered. So it didnt matter if you were pot 4 or 6. This is why it was so markedly unfair and it was just laziness on the club’s part. Seems like they have fixed that this time.

Successful? Happy for you

130 without Nunez.

Just me that thinks Everton’s new ground looks bland as fuck?

Second.

This is what happened last time

Thought Taylor’s question was actually quite interesting today. Better done in a proper long form interview though.

Booked the first train out of London, will be back in Newcastle ten minutes before work starts. Sure it will go swimmingly

I’m a teacher too. Anybody driving back with a spare seat? Will obviously pay petrol

🙁

Also- why would the club be holding back from telling us a kick off time that they knew?

Wouldn't even had had to have done that. My mate missed Chelsea, but didn't sell the ticket. Still got into pot two.

Have a read of the conditions again, everybody in Pot three will get one. Seat might not be ideal but you'll be there lad

Same exact row for me.

Ah, fair enough then.

Don't think it was possible to log in unless you were in the pot
