    We could esaily sell out all games with some thoughtful or imaginative pricing. There should be a bigger range of prices, especially for rubbish corner seats. There coulod/should be a range of about 5/6 zones/price bands in each stand for any game I reckon. And before people say that a few quid or a fiver don't make a material difference.... it deffo does. If Daily Mirror went up 55p to a quid tomorrow I guarantee you several hundred thousand people would stop buying it; the argument "it's only 55p" would not wash at all.

      well, if we could sell the home seats, i'd agree
      shamefully we failed to sell 15000 measly tickets v chelsea
      imo we should give ellerslie rd to away fans too, we did for celtic.
      when we get the 100,000 new home ground, we can give 90,000 to away fans.

      let's fill, home areas first, pricing is one means of doing so.
      but packages never benefit the season ticket holders.

          There was already a thread done on this, no one seemed interested in commenting though.

            I would have thought that Everton could sell 3000. But the club thinks not. They should make their fans pay a small non refundable deposit rather then tell em to basically fook off !!

              And all this talk of a 35.000-40.000 stadium when we struggle to sell in region of 15.000 it will be like playing in a morgue? the max we need with our support is about 28.000? unless we become a flourishing cliub and end up with a load of tourist.

                They need to look at the prices as at the moment as it's far too expensive and £40 for the cup game was a joke and I'm glad we didn't sell out

                It's cheaper to go to away games and that's including travel

                  The teams we have/will give 3,000 tickets would all have sold out if we gave them just the Upper Tier.

                  Every remaining home game now will sell out so we need to cut the allocation of the away team to the Upper Tier only and segregate in that area not the lower.

                  There is roughly 30 seats in a row, we're taking out the first 8 rows of the lower tier therefore losing 240 seats for Rangers fans, a few quid down the drain too.

                    I remember a while back someone asked TF on twitter why we give away teams both tiers. TF said it was due to an issue with the council and they are talking to them about it and trying to get a resolution so we can always have the bottom tier for home fans. I'll try and find the tweet again and post it later.
