Matthew Le God Posted 23 April, 2013 Share Posted 23 April, 2013 Where have all these fans been all season, It's a great question. The last 5 games in a row have sold out (Stoke will be the 6th) and we are averaging close to 31k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin C Posted 23 April, 2013 Share Posted 23 April, 2013 I can not make this game. As a result I have 2 adults tickets and 1 U11 ticket for sale. £65 for all 3. They are in the Family are row Y (Off the top of my head) We could meet up on Sat after the game to exchange if that suits. If not Somewhen next week or even at the Spurs game as I am off to that as well. If you are interested please put your email below and I will email you my details. Or PM me your details I think I can read PM. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkish Posted 23 April, 2013 Share Posted 23 April, 2013 The last 5 games in a row have sold out (Stoke will be the 6th) and we are averaging close to 31k. And three of those have been 3 of our biggest games of the season, (Liverpool, Chelsea, Man City) throw in the return of Redknapp and you'd be worried if we didn't sell them all out. It wasn't that long ago we only had 28,000 at a home game against a top 6 team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't that long ago we only had 28,000 at a home game against a top 6 team. Surprised you didn't put that game into the context we were in at the time. Saints sacked an extremely popular manager before that game and the fanbase wasn't exactly enthused by the situation. It was also 28,359 not 28,000 and with only 2,483 Everton fans there were many empty seats in the away end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint_Jonny Posted 23 April, 2013 Share Posted 23 April, 2013 It's a great question. No it isn't. Most of the games have sold out anyway, and you can see why people who don't go regularly would want to go to the last Premier League game of the season. No need to get all high and mighty about it. I'm a season ticket holder and I don't give a ****, just needed two tickets for the misses and my old man. I'm sure its the same for a lot of people.

PhilippineSaint Posted 23 April, 2013 Share Posted 23 April, 2013 It may have something to do with the UK being so regulated these days a game of football is nearly one of the only places you can shout scream jump up and down without the old bill arresting you immediately as a wrong doer. You will be photographed a hundred times and video footage taken so if you did shout out that the person in charge on the pitch was a merchant banker you will be arrested at a later date on the old bills non overtime days and then banned allowing someone else the use of your seat.

Attendances are based on tickets sold not who actually goes. You would have been included in the number as a season ticket holder, as would anyone who purchased a ticket. In any case the bad weather didn't stop the Evertonians making a 500 mile round trip. Maybe they've got more minerals than our pathetic, soft fans who are put off driving into town by a bit a rain.

SNSUN Posted 23 April, 2013 Share Posted 23 April, 2013 Crap - I found a solitary ticket in Green at the front of the Itchin - the Ticket office were making all the individual seats orange - but by the time it came to pay they'd locked me out the system.

stevegrant Posted 23 April, 2013 Share Posted 23 April, 2013 Bit of an obvious question, but I take it that means Saints have got block 43 for this game? No, there's a block of around 20 seats right at the front of that block nearest to block 42 that is available to home fans. That used to be replicated all the way up block 43, I remember being right on the netting there towards the back for a game against Arsenal years ago, no idea why they've stopped doing it, must be another 100 or so tickets they could have sold.
