New Everton Stadium

[blulouie]

Think this is the reality. Fans need to accept that there is likely to be a substantial increase in season ticket costs and individual match ticket prices. Everton ticket prices are historically some of the cheapest in the league. In order to increase revenue and make us competitive again, this will probably change.
I suspect there won’t be a massive increase in the number of season tickets made available- at least in the short term. Individual match tickets raise more money than season tickets over a season. For as long as there is the novelty of wanting to see a game in a new stadium, that will be more financially lucrative.
The biggest benefit in the short term of increasing season ticket numbers, is the money comes in earlier. Season ticket sales are completed by the end of the previous season- so appear in the accounts of that year. So our 24/25 accounts will include the first round of season ticket sales for the new ground. This should add to the easing of financial pressures next summer when we can hopefully start to meaningfully improve the team.

Goodison currently has around 31k season tickets this will rise to over 40k at Bramley-Moore both including corporate.

BMD will then have 3k+ Away seats leaving around 9k for general sale .
The money in early for the season tickets is an uplift for the club as you say but the 9k general sale tickets will bring a huge increase in receipts from infrequent / daytripper fans that generally spend a lot more per game than season ticket holders.

There will of course be increases in pricing accordingly especially from the current low cost at Goodison.
Wether we like it or not the club will be dragged into the real world of the cash generating Premier league.

Game changer.
