New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[Exeter_Gently]

Surprised Colin Chong hasn't got an interview. Deserves his moment in the sun for a perfectly delivered stadium.

Especially considering that fella was central to headlock gate.

Bearing in mind we're going to sell out the season ticket offering without breaking sweat, and that even more tickets will be available on a match-by-match basis, I'm not sure where your pessimism comes from. I haven't heard anybody say they've been priced out of buying a season ticket yet - in fact, they probably could have charged 25% more and it would still be among the cheaper tickets in the Premier League, especially for a massive club like us. The fans in the new stadium will be exactly the same as the ones in Goodison, only there'll be a few more tourists on top. Win win really.

Not next season. But that sort of value wont be there for long.

BTW the prices for food are a scandal and the club needs to be hammered unmercifully for it.

I know the second test event is 25k but how many in the 3rd one ?

Capacity/full house or almost mate.

Every season ticket holder should have the chance of a ticket - we will prob all have bought our seats by then so will be in our own for it.

Ok I've seen all your loaded sausage rolls and giant blue doughnuts, but I'm a man of refinement. Is it just the bog-standard disgusting coffee on sale or have they got some decent stuff available? It's a deal-breaker for me. I bet Spurs have barristas in micro-beanies serving flat-whites and skinny lattes.

I had a black coffee when I got in and I don't know if it was the elation but it tasted rather nice. Better than the tar at Goodison anyway!

apparently its being investigated by the club?

Good

 

[NathDogg]

Thought he was in the chokey?

Been a dream on here.

He’s broke out mate.

Awaiting the nega bombs about our new gaff - he’s started off slowly, easing himself back into it.

So it's the club that have bought the land,It's not a private enterprise?

No I meant to attract fans away from warm pubs, venues etc.
It’s a private enterprise

Shouldn't even be allowed to speak about a stadium he assured us numerous times would never happen.

No KC and Craig did not steal the food. They are okay people for reds. I don't begrudge them getting in, they have put out content for us. This was a little payback for that to help boost their channels.

I suppose it's possible the mystery Season Ticket holder who gave the tickets away could have been a proxy for the club..

I’m sorry to hear about your pop mate. He will watching over you and beloved club as we start to push on and get back to where we belong.

Thanks mate, he’s been gone years now sadly.

We talked (and argued) argued about destination Kirkby, he was as gutted as me about the kings dock.

He would have loved the new place.

Mixed emotions about last night.

On the one hand: what an effin stadium. Looks every bit what we were promised. My pride in Everton is off the charts - that we've seen this pulled off in a period when we were on our knees (I know they might be related issues like) is incredible. That we've emerged to make an audacious balls on the table statement like this just underlines what a massive organisation Everton still is not only in English but global football.

On the other hand: there's sadness. Not about leaving Goodison so much, but in an early glimpse into how the fanbase will change over time. This is a massive commercial shake up and it'll leave behind thousands and thousands of Everton fans who simply wont get near the place on anything like a regular basis. Whole social strata's will be literally left outside looking in. This is headed in one direction - especially if we get success - Everton fans convergence with Liverpool fans who have been for a decade and a half calling visits to the pub to watch Liverpool "going the game".

The spectacle has arrived.

Can never get a ticket at present so for lots of people it will hopefully be an improvement.

I wouldn't call it slating Baz, he certainly spoke his mind what he saw and picked up on certain parts. Some I agree with, some I don't.

Generally he was more towards the positive side.

If you had a ticket for event 1, you didn't get one for event 2, just the way they worked it with the ballot

I got a spare for last night from a friend who was too unwell to go, but I do have a ticket on my own account for test 2.

Event 3 should be all STHs and members and a general sale I think

Yes i knew those on test event 1 would not go in 2.

But from someone within the club, there was not a big demand for the 1st test event initially. That's why i think they may offer some to go number 2.

Turn it in people went for a nose at the stadium. Most lads I know were gone after half an hour. It was an under 18 friendly match

That’s great mate but my opinion is that’s really poor form. Why even bother going? That’s just my opinion. Go, enjoy it, have a nose, watch the game, go home. My opinion.
