New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[WelshBlue92]

Nearly 15000 seats in the south stand is boss like. Are they still painting the super riser blue as well. It’s going to look amazing full of blues.

It’ll be interesting if Safe standing ever comes in. A ratio of 1:1.5 would mean 5,000 in the lower section would become 7,500 taking the overall capacity of the South Stand to ~17,500

Now the big question I am after is how many of those available seats will go to people on the ST waiting list? Hopefully this will be answered some time in December.

Is it close to 13,000? If we have 31,000 current season ticket holders?

I’m not convinced, max % to ST holders under current rules is 80% capacity plus you need to factor in increased hospitality. I’m hoping the number is at least 5k or more but I’m also trying to set realistic expectations.

That's up about 1,000 on what we were expecting, isn't it? Or even 2,000?

So only 5000 standing in the South stand lower. I wonder if people in the South stand upper will be unofficially standing as the Lower Gwladys has been for the last few years.

Actually I suppose the 3k away need to be factored in so are we looking at 10k for the waiting list?

I think the original Bramley Moore documents mentioned a ratio of 1:1.6, but the SGSA Green Guide allows for a ratio of up to 1:1.8 in the lower leagues.

I’m hoping 5000, I think that’s about right from the numbers. Me and the lad are in if they increase it by at least 4500

Was the South Stand not meant to be 13k originally, does this mean we might see a slightly higher capacity?
