New Everton Stadium

For 500 quid a ticket I expect a reserved seat in the lounge.

It all felt a bit like a bar on a cross channel ferry.

Which might have been a better use of money…..

Nice one Barry. Some of those pillars could do with a lick of paint like.

Aren't the white pillars temporary? I think a good number of steels are scheduled to be removed at some point.

You missed (c)... basic supply and demand.

Everton have tried to raise the cost of their limited corporate before. Even after major refurbs of existing lounges (which are equivalent to a compatible offer elsewhere) they haven't been able to push it that far.

I'm assuming that the example posted (£2k to £9k) is an example of the club trying to speculatively push a much higher-end product, with several cheaper levels available to negotiate down to. I think there will be 7 levels of corporate on offer.

As regards LFC.... let's be honest, they're supply/demand figures are on a whole different planet to ours. They've limited supply for decades. My brother in law lives in the US and is an overseas member. He pays hundreds just to sit in an ordinary seat whenever he can get over, and sometimes thousands just to enter corporate-lite areas. There are tens of thousands like him who will pay a fortune for their rare visits. We don't have that.

There’s also revenue to be had from other corporate activities like conferences, training events, evening galas etc. Companies will be renting the corporate facilities all year round that nobody sees, not just match days.

East & west stand lower terracing

+ down at the docks there’s not much residential impediments to holding concerts, boxing and other one off sporting events, you can’t regularly do that in a built up residential area with no concourse and walking distance to the City Centre.

This is why the Euro’s will be at the Docks and not Anfield.

Good point

Eventually when the residential stuff is built, there'll be complaints no doubt.

Seems to happen... People buy flats next to music venues then complain about the noise

Always idiots... Like moving into our village next to a church and complaining about the bells ringing...

I believe the only temporary steels in that picture would be the ones at the bottom that go up at a near 45 degree angle towards the terracing area of the stand. Basically the ones you might be able to smack your head on as you walk underneath it.

I’m not sure what you think point b in my post is other than referencing supply and demand. We have always struggled to create demand because it just isn’t appealing to the prawn sandwich brigade.

Goodison’s major failing as a hospitality concern is its setting and facilities. It always has been. There is plenty of demand for expensive hospitality at all Premier League clubs if the offer is right.

You ignored Villa from my post who charge £400 a ticket for a five course meal and a seat in the stands. They’re hardly a top six or London club.

The Euros will be at BMD primarily because Anfield's pitch is too small.

You work for UEFA now do you as well?You know 100% it was the PRIMARY reason.

Or are you still crying over BMD?
