a question was asked some time ago ('09 after a boxing day visit to Sunderland)...
Attendance: 46,990
Big crowd, all paying fans at the game buying lager and pies as well.
Can someone, anyone, this is a quest not exclusive to the anti-Kirkby/KEIOC mafioso's find out when Goodison last held a match with an attendance over the figure quoted above please.
this is what I dug out ...
the last time our average home attendance was over 40,000 was in 1974-75
in 84-85 it was 32,131
in 86-87 it was 32,977

Understandable response - it'll be hard to pay money to support a team that has massively reduced its ambitions whilst missing an incredible business/prestigous opportunity.

Quite normal to agree to purchase of a site Subject to Planning '.
If designs don't get PP then no obligation to complete purchase.
Registration is last part of the transaction to be done.

If you analyse SAFC's accounts you'll find their price per ticket across a season is rock bottom of the PL (or very close to it). They give literally thousands of tickets away per game. GP even now earns more revenue than the SOL.

The most Everton thing that'll happen is Bramley Moore not being able to support the foundations of a football stadium

Can't wait for the new stadium that shoots lasers at passing easyjet flights travelling over from Norway.
I can provide a doll for you to point out where the bad man touched you if you want?
Bloody hell mate did you report it?

'Expected to be made' is probably the closest sentiment.

As for your doll post we leave it there shall we

When the Safety of Sports Grounds Act came into effect in 1977, Goodison Park's capacity was greatly reduced from 56,000 to 35,000, mainly due to outdated entrances and exits. As a consequence, Everton had to part with £250,000 in order to boost capacity back up to 52,800. The 1986 figure stood at 53,419, of which 24,419 were seated.
In the early 1980's the original corrugated roofing of the Gwladys Street Stand was replaced by blue cladding, giving the roof a rich colourful look. Then, in 1987, the pitched roof was replaced by an upturned sloping roof extending out over the terracing below, which joined the roof of the Bullens Road, creating a continuous roof on two sides of the ground.
The next development was the conversion of Goodison to an all seater stadium, following the Taylor Report, in the aftermath of the Hillsborough disaster.
This required the conversion of the paddock, enclosure and Gwladys Street terracing into seated accommodation. The Park End terracing remained temporarily but was only opened for big games. The reason for this was the intended redevelopment of the Park End. This came to fruition in the early part of 1994.
The last time spectators stood on the terrace was on 19th January at the FA Cup 3rd Round replay against Bolton. The old stand was pulled down during February, with construction beginning soon after. The new Stanley Park End stand is a single tier cantilever stand with a capacity of 6,000. The stand was opened on Saturday 17 September 1994 by David Hunt MP. A contribution of £1.3M was also given by the Football Trust.
The completion of the Park End brought Goodison Park's capacity up to 40,100, a figure exceeded at the time by only the projected capacities of Old Trafford and Anfield, neither of which were in such a confined area as Goodison Park.
