New Everton Stadium

If Everton were a pie, this would be the wonderful buttery golden crust.

Just don't look what is underneath.

I simply don't see this being true, or at very least extremely optimistic. It will take us from the 10th biggest stadium in the league (which we own) to the 8th biggest. And we will probably drop back down to 9th once Stamford Bridge gets re-done in the next few years. The debt that it has brought will mean any increase in revenue is going to be offset for years. Any immediate money back will be from selling the stadium and then renting it back. The stadium revenue is not gonna move the needle at all.

7th biggest in the league. Capacity doesn't really tell the story though, the premium seat section alone brings in more than the whole of Goodison. So that's around 5k of the seats pulling in Goodison's total. Should turnover much more in terms of snacks and beverages once we move, in fact I think we already struck a fairly healthy deal for that pa. Then we add in the extra sponsorship, our kit deal is supposedly far exceeding market value because they wanted the exclusivity of being a founding partner (given us +10m over the previous one despite our falling stock). There will be more deals to come like the RB deal reported today. Hopefully a juicy naming rights sponsor to come.

Look at the matchday income per club and see how low we are - there are mistakes in the data but generally it is correct in terms of placement, technically we'd probably be lower if it wasn't the end of Goodison and therefore people want to go to the match despite us being crap:

See how much Brighton earn more than us, then if they finish above us a few places in the league, they have a stack more cash than us so we have to be perfect to catch them. We all know that is the other way around so the gap grows.

Your point about the debt for the stadium is a salient one, if the debts are restructured we should earn more than we spend, especially given the income figures banded about. How much more depends on how well we restructure. Staying at Goodison would have condemned us to years more pain, whilst stadiums increased in price to deliver and just postponed the inevitable that we were going to have to go through at some point in time.

Hes spot on imo. It looks incredibly bland from the inside and quite small.

I'm sure lots of us have these reservations. There's no point crying over spilt milk. Maybe the future will determine changes. There's no question capacity is smaller than it could have been and should have been. Could do with another tier on the east stand or both east and west stands. Bit like the main stand at OT
