Armin:
The aim here is to create an FAQ for matchgoing reds.  if you can think of a frequently asked question and maybe come up with an answer as well please let one of the moderating staff know and we can incorporate it here.  With your help we can make this a resource that will help your fellowl reds, and prevent the same questions and answers being asked ad infinitum...

How long will I have to wait to get a Season Ticket?

The length of the list can only be measured by the number on it and NOT in time. ie: if you're 10000th in the list then you will have to wait until 10000 people have either not renewed, or not taken up the offer of one. Do not take any notice of anyone saying 'the list is ten years long etc...' because it cannot be predicted at what point in the future people will give them up.

Ive ordered tickets and haven't received them

Contact the club. However they will normally only issue re-prints an hour or less before kick-off.  If you have ordered your tickets within 3 days of a game then the Ticket Office will not post them out, instead you will have to collect them from the ticket office window on the day of the game (the Ticket Office is located at the Kop end of the ground)

If you have ordered them more than 3 days before the game then you will have to turn up at the Ticket Office on the day of the game with appropriate ID (fancard, the card used to buy the tickets, possibly drivers license or similar if you do not have a fancard) and they will issue a re-print/duplicate. Note that the Ticket Office tend only to do this within approximately 90 minutes of kick-off.

Whats the view like in (for example) Row 12 seat 50

As there are 45000 seats at Anfield, it is unlikely that anyone on this forum will have sat in the exact seat you are enquiring about. Therefore, click on the below link and match the block number on your ticket with that on the map. You should be able to work out roughly what part of the pitch you are directly facing. And also, row 1 unsurprisingly is the front row.

How many will we get at such and such an away game

Normally 2-3000 for a league away game.  Try searching for the thread from last seasons game, as allocations rarely vary too much from year to year.


When will such and such tickets go on sale

See the official site.

For cup and away games, there's no specific number of days prior to a game. Its just whenever the ticket office say so.

Q: Are there any restricted views in the ground ?

Some seats in area W in the main stand (the section overlooking Block102 in the Kop) can have a stanchion blocking part of the pitch.

Some of the Lower Anny Rd seats at the very back can give a letterbox view of the pitch but not really a restricted view.

There are restricted views in 208 at the Centenary side at the end of rows  20 to 23 ish.  The seats below the scoreboard sticnd touchline in front of the Centenary, diagonally across to almost the right hand side goal at the Anny Road is  blocked. 

Where can I park up on match days?

That would depend on what direction you're coming in from and which way you're going to be leaving. To get back on Queen's Drive if you arrive very early you might get street parking on Utting Avenue. If you're willing to pay Anfield Comprehensive School is an option. You could also try Walton Breck Road for getting on to Townsend Lane.

If you're going back via the tunnel, on the way up from Everton Valley is your best option.

There is street parking on the other side (from the ground) of Breck Road, though you may be caught by some unofficial parking attendants. Don't be tight, give them a quid or two. Be aware that any closer to the ground match day parking restrictions could well apply.

Where can I get information on away grounds?

The Guide to Away Groundss has been put together by Andy Roper.  New contributions welcome.

How does the Ticket Exchange work?

Basically, get your name on the thread as soon as it goes up, which is normally 2-3 weeks before the game and ask for however many tickets you're looking for.

If someone has a spare or two then there's a decent chance they'll drop or a text or an IM and offer you the tickets.  If you can get your name on the thread quick enough then you have a better chance of getting sorted.

Make sure you put your e-mail address when you post, you also have a much higher chance of getting sorted if you include your mobile number as a lot of posters like an immediate response when they offer tickets.

What's a fancard and how do I get one?

Fancards are used to track ticket purchases, in order to award loyalty points and to help reduce ticket fraud.

You MUST have a fancard if you wish to apply for European Away matches, or if you want to have any chance of successfully applying for tickets for other loyalty based allocations such as cup games and home League games against Everton and Man Utd.

At this moment in time it's still possible to purchase tickets without a fancard, but the future of ticket distribution is going to be through these electronic schemes, so if you do not have a fancard already, you should apply to the ticket office to obtain one.
