Trip to Goodison

    Hey folks,

    Was looking some advice from Goodison regulars.

    Have got myself tickets to the mid week game against Bolton,
    (can never make weekend games cause I play a bit myself)

    Really looking forward to this, but this is, my flight arrives real early.
    Thought i'd use this to my advantage and maybe try and score a few autographs?

    What time to the players normally arrive for midweek 8pm kick offs?
    and do they get tortured for autographs?
    one last thing.. not knowing our old lady too well... where do they enter?

    Heres hoping a few of the regulars can help a newbie out.

    About 2 hrs before, the first players arrive, like Neville, Cahill, Howard..........
    There wasnt many there for the Norwich n Swansea games, other than it fills up the longer it goes. But if you get a good speck on the fence, early on and have a bit of patience you should be ok.......

    Howie, I don't plan on eBaying any of the autographs.
    Def going to keep them as a momento of my first (of what I hope will now be many) trip to our old lady.

    Maybe your autograph would be a great wee addition to the collection? lol

    Thanks again folks for the info :)

    I have heard that our players are usually quite good when it comes to signing autographs. I heard that most players are happy to sign for everyone so I don't think you will have any problems there.

    And tell how it went after the game, if you saw anyone and got an autograph or two! ;)
