Evertonians will be given a helping hand from the Club as they travel to support Roberto Martinez's men throughout the 2014/15 season.

The activity forms part of a commitment introduced by all Premier League clubs 12 months ago to spend at least £200,000 on filling away ends up and down the country.

In season 2014/15 the Club's ‘AWAY FAN INITIATIVE' aims to rewards Everton fans on the road as they travel to support the team, and visiting supporters from other clubs.

The Club has negotiated reciprocal match ticket offers for the trips to NEWCASTLE UNITED (on 28 December) where tickets will be available at the reduced price of £20 for adults and £10 for juniors and SWANSEA CITY (on 11 January April) where prices for adults will be REDUCED by £10 and by £5 for concessions

The new EVERTON ROAD TRIP will also be introduced at FOUR Premier League away fixtures this season.

FREE coach travel, complimentary lunches and matchday programmes will be available for Everton's most loyal away travellers* — as well as the chance to enjoy the journey in the company of Everton legends. * based on number of away games attended in 2013/14.

The Club will also host a special pre-match event at a venue near to the away stadium.

The four selected games are:

  • v Burnley on 25 October
  • v Southampton on 20 December
  • v Crystal Palace on 31 January
  • v Queens Park Rangers on 21 March.

Travelling Evertonians will also receive support from up to 10 Everton STEWARDS travelling to matches to provide advice and general customer service support. The AWAY FAN AMBASSADOR, introduced last season, will also be in operation for all away fixtures this term.

Other inclusions for 2014/15 include:

  • Enhanced Fan Zone at Goodison Park
  • Improvement of facilities in the visitors section
  • Formal tie up with Marketing Liverpool to develop accommodation packages for visiting fans.
  • Exclusive meal deals for the visitors of both Crystal Palace and Queens Park Rangers.

Chief Executive Robert Elstone said: “The Premier League Away Fan Initiative was launched 12 months ago to fill away ends across the League. Our starting point for this season's plan was to understand what had worked for us and how some of our rivals fared with their initiatives. For 2013/14, most of the work we did was targeted at increasing away attendances at Goodison. For this season, we will shift the focus to Evertonians on the road.

 “Our away support continues to be one the best in top flight football and our activities will reward the unwavering backing from the best fans in the League. 

“As all Evertonians would expect, we will also continue to offer visiting fans a warm welcome and give them the opportunity to enjoy the increasing number of events and activities on show on matchday. We hope visiting fans will be encouraged to attend in ever increasing numbers.”
