Huge win that. Match the spurs result next weekend and we could be In business. I am off to pen love letters to Tony pulis. Trademark backs to the wall 0-0 please sir, tomorrow night

Unlucky Tighty, my model tells me it was 1-1.  Maybe you can do better next week?

As an aside.  Just read all about King Canute.  I got him all wrong it seems.

it got me no discount!

£2000.

time to become a member of chelsea.

Hope he gets left with it.  Unbelievable greed.

Well, first and foremost, the seller must be a fan to have notched up enough points to buy the ticket. He's probably thinking "I'm happy to go, but what price will I be willing to sell that experience?". He earned the right to be able to buy that ticket at face value, so I think he can sell it as he sees fit.

Since we live in a market economy prices are dictated by supply/demand. If he can find a rich Leicester fan, good luck to him. I'm sure there'll be other Chelsea seats available a lot cheaper.

He is selling a ticket in the Chelsea end as per Tighty so he won't have had to attend any games to earn the right to have the ticket.  He is probably just selling his season ticket for the last game of the season which is a total dead rubber and trying to pay for his next 3 years season tickets in the process.  Seems totally logical to me.  The season ticket has zero value after the Leicester game to him.  Fair play to the guy.  I would do exactly the same thing in the situation.  Pretty sure he will get the £2000 or very close to it.

the person selling is a leicester fan

has attended virtually every game this season, which means he has the points to be on priority one

wants to make a turn.

If he does so and is reported for doing so, he (on the evidence of this week when people were banned) faces a three year ban from purchasing a lcfc season ticket, home tickets or lecfc away tickets

i don't think that's worth £2k

I'm going to sound like capitalist scum here, but I don't think he's doing much wrong.

He's earned the right to buy a ticket and his price for missing the game and selling the ticket is £2000.

No one is forced to pay the amount he's asking and I'm sure he'll happily go to the game if no one meets it.

Selling out on missing a probable once in a lifetime experience is dirty imo. Hope Leicester win it by then so it's relatively worthless.

We have no idea of the guys motives, might have lost his job or bet his house on Spurs winning the league after trusting his model Smiley

Or maybe it is the only way he can afford to see Leicester in the Champions League next season.

Whatever, he has earnt the ticket, it's up to him what he does with it.

Touts hoovering up tickets so there's no availability for some events is far more annoying.

It isnt though, its against the rules what hes doing. Its clear if he doesnt want to go it passes to the next priority, not to someone with more money than sense.

Its interesting to hear people cry that clubs rip people off but when fans do it on a much more disgraceful scale, its his right.

Who cares why hes selling his ticket, report him and let the club decide. Should we pay the touts a tip because his wife just screwed him in the divorce?

It's a bigger a mystery as to why Everton have got so few points than why Leicester have got so many.

If you watched the first half itd tell u all u need to know

They've got a squad of players which should be challenging for the top 4.

Cannot think of a weakness except squad depth maybe.

Better squad of players than Liverpool at the start of the season.  How many liverpool players would have started for Everton at the start of the season?  3? 4 max?  Defensively have been so disappointing on so many occasions given their defensive quality on paper.

mignolet
clyne
moreno
lovren
sahko
henderson
milner
can
allen
lucas
firminho
countinho
lallana
sturridge
origi
benteke


would all snap get in and not even close i don't think, at the start of the season too i think

Sakho? Ahead of Stones or Jagielka?

You been on the Llama juice?

Jagielka and its not close lol

Ok, firstly looking at the start of the league:

ODDS TO WIN 2015-16 BARCLAYS PREMIER LEAGUE
CHELSEA 3/2
MANCHESTER CITY 5/2
ARSENAL 4/1
MANCHESTER UNITED 5/1
LIVERPOOL 25/1
TOTTENHAM 100/1
SOUTHAMPTON 250/1
EVERTON 250/1

If I say Jose Enrqiue and Moreno would both get in Evertons team, obviously I mean separately. Its like saying Fernando wouldn't get a game for Gretna Green because Yaya and Delph will be playing.

mignolet   -> Quite clearly better than Howard imo.
clyne  -> Close between Coleman and Clyne, at the start of the season he was big new signing who played great last year, I think he's had a better season
moreno -> Baines has been deteriorating for a long time now
lovren -> IMO he is better than Jagielka, at the start of the season he definitely was seem as being better, has been great since Klopp came too.
skrtel  -> Another I think is better than Jagielka
sahko -> Whilst I think he is better now than Jags at the start of the season the general consensus may have been different.

henderson -> had a great season, was made the new Liverpool captain, clearly better than Cleverly
milner -> Was seen as the best free transfer in years, again clearly better than most/all of Evertons midfielders
can -> I doubt anybody has complains here
allen -> This one is probably wrong at the start of the season, has been great recently though
Lucas  -> better than Barry
Firminho  -> New signing from Brazil, better than Lennon
Coutinho  -> Better than anybody in Evertons squad
Lallana  -> Better than any attacking midfielder from Everton including Mirallas, Lennon, Kone etc
Sturridge -> Better than Lukaku, if he was fit and signed for Everton he would clearly start the first game of the season
origi -> OK at start of the season wrong, now he would play upfront with Lukaku
Benteke  -> Was a huge 30m signing that was tipped to do amazingly well, started infant of Lukaku for Belgium would play with him at Everton

So for me thats 13 definite starters. Skrtel, Sahko, Allen, Origi would have been at least massively contending for a place if they didnt get one. Like I said obviously there wouldn't be room for 5 strikers, but thats clearly not the best way to do it imo.

The talk of only 3 players would get into Evertons team is laughable, like Carragher said, this Everton team on paper is not good and its just a myth.

Terrible goalkeeper
Very weak and inexperienced defence
Substantially lacking in quality in midfield
No depth up front


Cant see how my post got horseplay so angry "D

Riyad Mahrez is the beautiful loon in Leicester’s march towards history.

 Leicester have only conceded the first goal in 1 of their last 17 PL matches since Boxing Day. (Rondon, WBA home 2-2)

Help settle an argument at work (Not with Tikay, I don't bother arguing with him)

You can only have 1 of Mahrez or Kante for your remaining games, which one do you have?

Kante

I could live with Demarai Gray on the wing, think he's a very good young talent but the drop off for midfield and defence without Kante is larger

nothing goes through the middle with Kante playing, so teams try to go wide and when they do Huth and Morgan mop up every cross

That's because I'm always right.

As it happens, the reply Tighty gave is pretty much exactly what I would have said.
