New Everton Stadium

[Bryan+]

Getting all the easy soft ball questions I see….


What about those gas stove light Dan ffs?

(Great jerb by the way )

Always liked Dan, imagine being responsible for building something like that. I can’t even put a shelf on the wall and this fella has built a stadium that’s gonna contain boos for over a 100 years.

Well in Lar

Is the pricing down to the club? Surely that’s set by Aramark?

Maybe they can only advise but ultimately the concessions provider has final say. So the people’s club stuff can only be judged on stuff our board does?

I can’t imagine the club would agree to a contract without taking a percentage of the profits and in that case, they would have input into pricing also

End of the day nobody is obligated to purchase anything inside of the stadium and there are no rules to prevent you from bringing in your own food. Don't know about drinks (due to the containers), but home fans aren't being searched upon entry to the ground.

I am pretty sure it said they wouldn’t let you in with food or drinks but that could have been an unfounded rumour

Food was confiscated at the gate. My wife was only trying to take a large bag of peanuts in... they checked her bag and removed them. Not sure what will happen to the tea flask and butty brigade haha.

Yep, saw that happening to a few folk as well on entry at the gates.

If they're taking a bag of nuts off people at the gate and charging those prices for food there'll be a lot more of that too.

Was truly knocked out by the scale of the new place on Sunday. The interior is like a cathedral. Goodison is so tiny in comparison. Just walking around the interior leaves you knackered. It's vast and the concourses are huge. Fan response has been overwhelmingly positive in terms of the building itself. So exciting to think of it full and supercharged with supporters next season - finally optimistic Everton can attract better players and actually compete after so long. The new home is absolutely the ticket to this.

Same here, I wonder where they even start, mind boggling.

That's a bit strong Tom . Are they going to stop people having a bar of chocolate or a bag of sweets in their pocket ?.

Usually with the foundations, the other way round is a nightmare.

Hope you asked for them back, and where you can collect them after the game . No way im giving up a bag of peanuts. Or is this a nut-free stadium?

Just wait until they start confiscating Everton Mints at the gate…a truly “Everton that” moment.

BMD a nut free stadium, this isn’t even a nut free forum
