New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

Going my first game at the new stadium tomorrow on my tod (wanted to get my old man a ticket too, but didn’t realise I’d have to have a second membership) Looking forwards to it though, hoping we’re better than the weekend

I'm sure there are people selling tickets on the ticket thread, where you don't need to be a member to transfer

We're near the top of the South Lower and wind was hitting us in the face all game. And no it wasn't the arl fella in front

I see, we are in the lower west so maybe it was that.
Like Emperor penguins in a huddle.

4 if us in the corner of the North / West stand (245) said the same thing. I had a t-shirt, sweatshirt and a big Everton coat on and was bloody sweating.

Same as us in the lower west, I had two pair of thermal socks on, thermal leggings and thermal top, then normal winter clothes over them, I was slow roasting myself in there.

Forcing digital tickets.
Forcing paid membership per ticket.
Silly kickoff times particularly for travel.

Results in this.

I'm in Village st. Doesn't take much for loads to go downstairs for a bevy and a warm,
Its all paid for so people think "I'm getting my moneys worth"
The wasted drinks at half time is ridiculous, just greed

Yeah the one time I went in village st, one of the lads who was with us never bothered coming up for the 2nd half, just got a load of ale at HT and sat watching it in one of the pubs down there.

As you say, loads do it apparently. I'm surprised Everton keep the game on the tv 2nd half, they used to switch them off at Goodison in the lounges so you had to go up to your seat.

Damn, it’s actually sad how many tickets are left. Soooo many empty seats.

Anyone have any advice on how to tell the woman behind me at the match to stop shouting 'Cmon Everton, every 10 seconds in the same whiny voice? It's not cheering the team on, I'm sure even the players find her voice annoying. Actually puts me off the game more than that performance yesterday. Hopefully I can move seats in the summer. Vent over.

Turn around and telling her to stop supporting Everton, vocally and be quiet and miserable like the rest of the ground.

Was it just me but it felt like it wasn't as cold inside the stadium as it was outside, against Brentford.
Body heat being kept inside by the towering stands maybe?

Might be a good idea to start giving some away to less fortunate families etc

I parked near Olivia’s Bar on Saturday with my brother, exact same spot as we used to do for Goodison. Was about a 2 mile walk and quite enjoyed it!

Was that the most enjoyable part of the day!

Or just sell them at a ticket office on the day?

They have people paying mad prices for 'Pißwasser' (budweiser) and they're happy taking the money on behalf of this insult.

Or online. That would work better imo. But if they aren't selling, then why not give them away to less fortunate

Never once had a ticket I couldn't find someone to take at Goodison. Even if it meant for free to a stranger around the ground.

Wolves will be the third time it's happened at Hill Dickinson.

Paid membership greed.
