New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium


You get moved where to ?
Well, not so much you physically get moved but your season ticket seat is not available to you. Season tickets don't cover cup matches, only league, but the club (entirely at their own discretion) generally allows season ticket holders to purchase their own seat for cup games. Unfortunately if you sit in an area where you will be displaced by away fans this option isn't available, and you have to purchase a ticket for elsewhere in the ground.
 
Too busy sorting that lot out with more cash to be arsed about Everton.

“LFC continue to have a hugely positive impact on the city region’s economy. This mission is about strengthening trade and driving investment in the US and we’ve discussed with Fenway Sports Group about how they can help us achieve this in Boston and the wider area.

“We’ve already seen the huge impact of sports tourism and how hosting major events can generate tens of millions of dollars for our local economy. It was fascinating to visit Fenway Park to hear about how things are done here and see if there are areas we can learn from.
“Our two great cities already share deep-rooted historical and cultural links and we now have two of the world’s great sporting institutions in common, in the Red Sox and Liverpool Football Club. I’m grateful for the chance to meet influential stakeholders like FSG who have been instrumental in opening doors for us to showcase the tremendous opportunities of collaboration with businesses in the Liverpool City Region. We are keen to build on those links by boosting tourism, trade and investment, and can promise a warm city region welcome to any Bostonians who care to cross the pond and visit us.”

A Liverpool fan, the Mayor then took a tour of Fenway Park to learn more about how it is used to stage major events - ranging from concerts and festivals to movie nights and high school football matches - in addition to the demands of the packed Red Sox fixture list in the Major League Baseball season.
Made my blood boil reading that. Ok he’s a Liverpool fan, but his focus should be on delivering for both clubs not just his beloved reds.

Sorry mate I thought we were talking for league games not cup 🤭, that's fair enough.
 

So if you have bought a season ticket there, Everton can just move you to cater for the away fans, it's a good few years since I've had a season ticket, that's news to me. I take it if it's a league game you won't be charged again for for the seat Everton move you to James.
Yes they can. My uncle still has his ST for the big shed over the park, and where he sits is allocated for UEFA officials for all their European home games.

He's forced to move seats, and when he asked if he could choose a permeant replacement seat for said games (so he knows where he'll be) they turned him down.

With Everton, I believe we've always given people the choice to choose in a window before they go on sale to other non-ST holders.

Thanks mate.
 

Saw that mentioned in The Athletic article. Wonder why they've gone to the trouble of growing the pitch from scratch only to take it up and lay a new one for next season?

I guess just to get the test events done to get the specific licenses needed and then relay a new one where it (hopefully) has better weather and they can take their time with it.

I think they done well to get down what they did considering how grim the weather has been (I know it's partial synthetic but it weaves with real grass doesn't it) and probably why the edges still look a bit rough ad they've had to focus on the main pitch area

There's more than enough time for them to relay it over the summer, with the better weather. Typically, we rip up Goodison in late May / early June and relay it.
 
I’m obviously buzzing with the new ground, it looks absolutely amazing. But with 25k+ on the season ticket waiting list if that’s correct, we should have went bigger.

Where's that 25k figure from? Be good to see how it plays out

Lots of entitlement creeping here, there is 4 train stations within 30mins of the new ground.

I’ve said it before but the RS ground holds 50k - in the middle of Anfield. They have a big car park that’s it as far as I can see, how do they cope?

There is a ton of parking and car parks around BMD.

Exactly this. Should encourage fat people to walk with some sort of NHS voucher scheme
