New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

Been wondering what happens if you buy a resale ticket at full price which was originally an oap or child ticket how much does the seller get? Do the club pocket the difference?

'The house never loses' would be my guess.

The seller gets 1/19th of the annual season ticket price.

They’ve also stopped playing the Premier League anthem… which, extraordinarily, still gets booed even though it’s not being played.

Unprecedented levels of booing.

It does get played, it’s just very quiet and only on for a few seconds

I’ve not heard a note of it in the stadium or on TV since I think at least December…

You get credit for the amount you as a ST holder paid, so as @dockroad said, 1/19th of the overall price.

It's in the club's interest to get those tickets resold because they're receiving a) the membership fee (minimum of once), and b) the additional cost.

It's merely muscle memory at this point.

Im sure they originally said the difference would go to Eitc

It did, although this was not included in this year's information released by the club because the club will instead provide a 'donation'.

What constitutes the donation, well let's wait and see.

There's not. He's just a strange poster who likes to adopt a contrary position then argue it with strangers on the internet all night.

You mean the people who have put their money where their mouth is for years/decades, when so many couldn't be bothered going, because "Everton don't come and see you when you're bad".....?

Perhaps the more pertinent question should be: where are all those wannabe ST holders on the waiting lists, when thousands of tickets are either on general sale or resale and going to waste?

Furthermore, does this suggest that the waiting lists are a sham (or a scam)? Or is the whole digital tkt transfer/resale process too complicated and/or prices too high...? Or a combination?

The fact is, the waiting lists evolved over several years, largely when tkt prices were much lower. They also grew in an era of a smaller capacity in a stadium with many obstructed views, and in eager anticipation of the new stadium. However, that isn't the case now, there isn't limitless price-elasticity-of-demand in our fanbase and £60-70, plus a membership fee for a matchday tkt, is probably beyond that limit for the bulk of our non ST holders. We haven't got an endless amount of latent support, or out-of-towners desperate to come and watch us a few times per season.

The club now have American owners. They generally love to squeeze their asset to the max, especially when hoping to fully exploit any "new stadium effect." The point is, at these prices, with some transport issues disenfranchising the less mobile and still needing to be resolved, and with this quality of football (at least marginally better than the previous 5+ seasons), we may already be at or near those limits. We don't yet have those masses of empty seats that we've seen at the Etihad or London stadium for years.... but the owners should be conscious of where they are on those supply/demand curves. They also need a good surplus of demand to fully exploit corporate and corporate-lite packages and for "Seat Unique" sales to work. Quite a few jumped the waiting lists by opting for the corporate tkts. Empty general admission seats, might make some of those corporate packages look a lot less attractive going forward. If they're not careful the bubble will burst and more people could walk away, the waiting lists will vanish overnight and the whole pricing structure will collapse.

I think you're missing the point made Tom.

STH have always had the comforts of passing on their season tickets (when in physical form) and now they can't do it so easy as they could.

I think he's spot on.

I don't mind you typing things like that about me adi. I'd honestly rather be thought of in that way than spend my spare time posting pointless, whinging drivel like you just did because you don't like the words a stranger types into a little box on the internet. What a wetwipe.
