@EmilyKa11458483 @Hoddy10 @H1ggy @Everton @efc_fanservices Lurking on this thread as I'm in the same boat - but never got through on the phone and no luck on here.

My season ticket has updated but still no email tickets for those I bought via friends and family.

Lovely piece on what Goodison - and to be honest ANY ground with history - means to us fans.

I’ve been nine times this season with my 12yr-old lad, including Saturday, but likely only one more visit for us - and that won’t be the final match 😢

I wrote about football, family, memory and loss. About going to watch Everton with my dad, taking my son to Goodison for a final pilgrimage and why that place means so much to so many of us 💙>> https://t.co/6thTp61E9Z

Not britpop but if works…

Took this photo just about 12 years ago.

The three you probably *cant* name are in three brilliantly important positions in UK football - and deservedly so.

The others and doing very well. Not least that young Macclesfield manager…

@efc_fanservices Absolutely shocking. Again.

[Will Cooper @willcooper]

@TicketmasterCS @efc_fanservices It’s now sold out.

For a club that already has its relationship with its fans finest balanced, @Everton is doing its best to make things even worse though this system.

[Will Cooper @willcooper]

Another game, another shitshow from @everton and @TicketmasterUK .

@efc_fanservices : this really is shocking. I know six others having exactly the same issues right now.

How could this be so bad?

[Will Cooper @willcooper]

@TicketmasterCS All of that, for six different people. We can’t all be doing it wrong? Someone lucked out and got tickets in the basket, but the app crashed and kicked them out.

**might** it be the system isn’t good enough?

Terrible @efc_fanservices. Members + season ticket holders for years

This, this and this.

Channel 4 & ITV coverage of the Tour de France in the 80s/90s/00s got me obsessed with cycling.

Free to air is so important.

Gary Imlach, @nedboulting, @millarmind, @mrendell, @Chris_Boardman, @friebos + @Petekennaugh are an impeccable team.

Gutted.

This is not good news for cycling in the UK.

Firstly, I'd like to say that there are a lot of passionate cycling fans working at WBD, in front of and behind the scenes. The company is automatically 'disliked' by a cohort of the general public because it's a huge international conglomerate, but Eurosport have been showcasing cycling since 1991. They have, and continue to do a hell of a lot for our sport.

On the flip side, exclusivity on the biggest race in the world, the ONLY race where non-cycling fans might tune is, is very worrying. It's a significant barrier to entry into what is already a relatively niche sport in the UK.

ITV not only do a fantastic job themselves of broadcasting the race, live and with easily accessible highlights, they provide a gateway to WBD. The fans they 'convert' each July are more likely to subscribe to Discovery+/Max/Eurosport once they've realised how amazing our sport is. They must have made lifelong cycling fans of millions of people over the last few decades (including me).

Anyway, I really feel for Ned, Dave, Pete, Matt, Daniel, Gary and all the others behind the ITV production - thank you for all you've done for the sport.
