    just had a bit of a look on the interweb regarding how many tickets you get for away games in the europa ,with not much luck,does any 1 know if its a percentage thing and if so what it is,brugge ground 29,000 if you get 10% then the thousands that are wanting to go =a lot of disappointed people

    Why do so many people suddenly want to travel to Bruge? Last time I checked Everton hadn't even sold out.

    An 8.00pm Kick-off on a Monday night means getting back to Newcastle when the milkman is doing his rounds and probably needing a taxi to get home.

    That plus Goodison isn't exactly the best ground to visit, a low roof which if you're at the back of the stand means you can't see the whole of the field, pillars which restrict your view and have you ducking and diving to try and keep up with the play. And if anybody starts to pogo it feels as if the wooden floor is going to collapse.

    A ground with a lot of history but badly in need of being brought up to date.

    Tickets for all matches other than the final are sold directly by the participating clubs.

    People booking for Bruges etc because the fans enjoy a continental trip which is why many were delighted we qualified for europe as opposed to the moaners who would have preferred not to have the "distraction".

    Do people seriously expect the allocation to be announced now, when the match is in November?

    We still have 6 away games until then, 11 games all together.

    it could be worth going over even if you don't get a ticket. the place should be bouncing.
