southamptonbairn Posted 9 July, 2012 Share Posted 9 July, 2012 Cheap train tickets have just gone on sale for this one. Be quick, they're going fast. Cheers for the info . Virgin are normally 2 weeks behind East Coast advance tickets going on sale and I'm glad I saw your post. I managed to get TWO yes TWO returns Glasgow to Kirkdale for under £30. Its on google that Goodison is a 15min walk from Kirkdale Station. Now fingers crossed I manage to get tickets for the away end ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saints_is_the_south Posted 9 July, 2012 Share Posted 9 July, 2012 Booked 4 returns from London Euston to Liverpool today, £24 each. On the 08.07, gets up there about 10.15 I think. Very much looking forward to this one, Goodison Park is one of the few non-modern stadiums left although I've heard the view from the away section is not great depending on where abouts you are. Never been to the city of Liverpool before either personally, and already looked up some top looking boozers online. In fact I found this pub crawl whilst having a browse around - http://www.roscoehead.co.uk/georgianpub.htm - May give it a go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool is a fantastic city and Goodison is one of the best grounds in the country, IMO. The view is alright as long as you're not shoved at the back of the lower tier. Every time I've been we've barely had around 1000 there, so it's been pretty much stand where you want. Imagine we'll have a few more than that this time seeing as it's been a while.

For an awful lot of fans, say under 24(ish) these are all new grounds so I would imagine our away following will go up quite a bit compared to the last time we were up there.

RonManager Posted 10 July, 2012 Share Posted 10 July, 2012 (edited) Last time I went to Goodison we lost 8-0, the minibus windscreen got smashed so we drove as far as Stoke in the freezing cold to change buses courtesy of Port Vale FC. Got back to Winch then walked 4 miles home in the ****ing rain, got in about 5am, played football the following morning and ended up with flu. Happy days.

saints_is_the_south Posted 10 July, 2012 Share Posted 10 July, 2012 Everton have announced their match ticket pricing structure for next season. We'll come under category D and therefore prices should be as follows: Paddock (front of Lower Tier) - £35, Lower Bullens (Back of Lower Tier) - £32 & Upper Bullens (Top Tier) - £37.

stkev7 Posted 15 July, 2012 Share Posted 15 July, 2012 Agreed with many posts, superb old fashioned ground. Only been the once and on that day we had Blackstock and Best up front with about 700 of us there. Leon Osman is a little sh*t! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
