Everton FC Season Ticket Terms & Conditions
(Now with 30% more emotional damage than last season!)

1. Disclaimer of Enjoyment
   By purchasing an Everton FC season ticket, you acknowledge and accept that consistent winning football, coherent tactics, or anything resembling joy is not guaranteed, implied, or even strongly hoped for.
2. Entertainment Clause
   While we aim to provide entertainment, said entertainment may include (but is not limited to):
   • Dramatic last-minute defeats
   • Confusing managerial decisions
   • Passes to invisible players
   • The occasional heroic draw that feels like a win
     Actual entertaining football may occur sporadically, purely by accident.
3. Hope Liability
   Everton FC accepts no responsibility for any emotional rollercoaster, false dawns, or premature optimism experienced during the season. Fans are advised to temper expectations and hydrate accordingly.
4. Relegation Readiness
   In the unlikely-but-not-that-unlikely event of relegation, season ticket holders will be entitled to a front-row seat to “The Great Rebuild: Part IX”, starring yet another promising-but-doomed manager.
5. VAR Therapy Support
   Everton FC recommends all season ticket holders budget for post-match therapy, particularly during games involving VAR. Club psychologists are available on a pay-per-moan basis.
6. No Refunds for Laughing Neutrals
   Please be advised that your ticket does not cover damages caused by friends who support other clubs, especially those that win things. Everton FC is not liable for ruined weekends, passive-aggressive WhatsApp groups, or Match of the Day, or Grand Old Team forum rage trauma.
7. EWFC limited home game access

Season ticket holders are entitled to access one woman’s team game per season provided said game is not at Hill Dickinson Stadium. Sniff it carpet baggers​

By entering Hill Dickinson Stadium, you agree to the above, and to Boooo this club regardless. Because that’s just what we do.

After dropping that turd sandwich on members' plates about the shift to a ballot I'd advise the club to make that women's game against United free entry to them.

That rule needs looking at. If your women's team play at a stadium like WHP then it's understandable. When they have a 30k stadium of their own then I don't see the point.

Also (not an issue yet) teams like Bournemouth have a mens stadium smaller than our womens one.

Not really, the one-off games have shown a massive growth in attendances and a decent TV audience, to the point where Arsenal are now able to regularly sell out The Emirates.

Chelsea, who are the dominant force in the WSL, play at a 5k stadium. They don't sell out regularly, but put them at Stamford Bridge for a one-off and they'll do 39k.

Our women's attendances will go up this season because of Goodison, yes, but then you'll spike again for HDS. That spike helps.

100 feet from the stadium. That's a worrying failure to calibrate scale from someone pulling pints.

No one under 50 should be using feet as a measurement in the UK, they haven't taught it in schools since the late 80's! it must be more like 2000 feet from 10 streets social just to the gates in the dock wall

Looks a decent place to go for a drink though, I imagine it will be busy on match days, hope they swap out the red lighting for blue!

I think you are right, long term, but for this season it will give fans who are not season ticket holders a chance to go to a game at the new stadium and hopefully more affordable for families to go as well.

No one under 50 should be using feet as a measurement in the UK and yet tv screen sizes are expressed in good old inches

 

[BullensRoad]

in places like train stations and airports, these small ones actually work well, but some have dedicated security. Looking at that one, I would be concerned that people will just go under or over the barriers and take stuff without paying, unless there is a security guard stood there.

It's got modern cctv all over the place. If you're stealing a pack of crisps or drink then enjoy being banned.

Said earlier, good way to stop some of the bad ones going the game.

How many cubits is that?

 

[TheNinja]

What does it say?

No, I was asking, as that would be the logical place to find out.

 

[DaChunk]

I reckon the ‘barriers’ will be the actual stadium entrance turnstiles. So the payments will be linked to the e-tickets / Everton accounts.

Also I suspect these grab and go things will only be in the corperate sections. Not devoid of scallys but significantly less likely to have people trying to fiddle than general access.

Not enough blue in this space!

I get what you say, but I doubt the numbers will go up beyond what Goodison is capable of. If our women's team was as successful as Chelsea or Arsenal then I would kind of understand.

We are spending a lot of money on Goodison to be fit for a modern women's ground (in terms of changing facilities) they should be making that a home without the distraction. The rule isn't for purpose in our case.

Look towards to top shelves for that.

We’re spending less than a million quid on the Goodison redevelopment this season

If we were to knock Goodison down, sell the land and start elsewhere, we would be 30/40 million quid in the hole. Goodison is the more sensible option. But the rules are the rules

I’m just pointing it out for those who are like “keep them separate” because no, we shouldn’t. Arsenal have led the way with their one club mentality. We need to replicate that. We will.

Although there is no contracted rule. It is not much different to how some Rugby teams operate, Harlequins & Saracens, a more recent development at Spurs. Leinster play the odd game at Aviva and more recently Croke Park. Harlequins play the odd game at Twickenham, to increase exposure and revenue. See the same for the Women's side of football, not to sure it should definitely be 'contracted' but the option should always be there to play at a bigger local stadium. Bristol Bears even played a game at the Millennium Stadium last season, they play at Bristol City's ground which is not a bad stadium and they don't sell out, but there was a big crowd in Cardiff.

Everton is the only women's team with their own dedicated stadium that, and those that share their stadium have limited capacity and hospitality.

If the club were to, say, sell the women's team to a separate entity within the TFG, this would add quite a lot to the value, wouldn't it? Long term gain...
