Supporters are being reminded they will need to be aware of their unique Everton customer number if they wish to vote on the Club’s next crest.
The design stage of the crest project is now underway after the consultation phase ended on Sunday.
Almost 20,000 Evertonians had their say on what they would like to see from the next crest and that information will now be collated and used by an independent design team to draft a number of potential crests.
Those designs will then be put to a vote of all supporters with a valid customer number acquired through past ticket purchases or club membership (approximately 280,000). There will only be one vote allowed per customer number and the vote will be independently managed and verified by Electoral Reform Services.
The vote will commence on Monday 23 September at 12pm and run until Tuesday 1 October at 11.59pm.
The next Everton crest will then be revealed on Thursday 3 October and come into use from the start of the 2014/15 season.
Anyone with any queries or concerns over their customer number should contact the Everton Fan Centre ahead of the voting period. Supporters should note that customer numbers are published on the front of Season Ticket cards, Corporate Memberships cards, match tickets, FOREVERTON membership cards and shareholders cards. All customers numbers have a unique seven-digit number starting with ‘5’. Any customers numbers with 00000 pre-fixing their seven digit customer number should not include these when voting.
