We are consistently failing to fill goodison every game. Spurs, arsenal, man united, man city, liverpool and chelsea never have a problem yet we do.

Do we have enough fans to compete with the top 6 clubs? If people dont go someone else does from other clubs but at everton if people stop going you see an empty seat.

Three reasons spring to mind, but there's loads more.

1 - We have a very localised fan base in a recession hit area, so we don't have the influx of Norwegian support clamouring for tickets every game.

2 - We have more obstructed views than pretty much any other stadium imaginable.

3 - We have no glory hunters whatsoever. We have little to no chance of winning anything in the foreseeable future so none of the fair weather fans are on the bandwagon.

then any financial business model would say with those three factors that with no extra people coming to the game the best option is to increase prices.

if people arent prepared to come or pay why keep the prices low. they just arent coming.

Actually, a sound business model would be to do the exact opposite - lower prices to entice fans to take on the extra seats.

If you increase the price, then you'll alienate those who are giving you the current demand.

Common market strategy - low demand = lower price/improve product, high demand = capitalise with higher prices.
 
Our most expensive season tickets are the the 10th most expensive in the prem.

Our cheapest season tickets are the 9th cheapest in the prem (so cheaper than 11 other clubs).

They're low, but not that low.
