New Everton Stadium

[Simo]

I domt think so. I'm guessing it will be like the 1st test event, where it was ticket only.

So there's scanning of tickets at the Dock wall for the test event rather than doing it in the stadium?

Doubt it mate. Session time is 15 mins.

Yeah seems mad if they are. Seats just keep popping up and disappearing

No, its not either or, its both.

This is what the gates on the wall were like for the 1st event.

Suspect it's possibly a finance thing. Anyone taking up the direct debit option will need to apply for finance and it might not be immediately apparent whether you have passed the credit checks etc.

Any that don't will have their seats released back for purchase.

That makes sense. Guy next to me nearly lost his seat because he missed the email to confirm his finance.

Scandalous this.

It's all feeling a bit remote to me.

I'm nowhere near eligible for a season ticket so I'm looking at a stadium tour as being the only way I can get access to this place.

Everton need to be aware they have a responsibility to keep this new stadium as accessible as Goodison. We are community based club, after all.

Actually, I'm not 100% sure if they ask for proof for your ticket at the dock wall entrance. If they don't l then perhaps you could in fact have a little mince around the outside of the stadium.

I wasn't aware mate, as I didn't go to the test event

This is sounding all very exclusive to me.

If I went down there would I at least be able to get onto the plaza?

Part of it, its still a building site remember. Once weget H&S passed, you will be.

Thanks mate. Anyone else confirm that?

 

[davek]

You'll be glad of its "accessibility" when that shower of scruffy bastards hsve tbeir parade in May/June.

That said its only a wall blocking them, and we know what they think of walls.

Ha ha.

They are probably testing procedures for fan plaza concerts etc when ticket and security checks will have to be done at the wall gates.
I imagine there will be no checks at the wall for games once the stadium's open.

Just watched the video with Rotherham on the Royal Blue Podcast. When the story comes out that the use of Everton stadium for Euro 2028 is in jeopardy, I can’t wait for him to start deflecting blame. The council are not holding up their end of the bargain. He keeps saying Everton have invested 1 million in the project and Liverpool council have invested 4 million. I think you’ll find that Everton invested 800million you absolute weapon. Stop getting the begging bowl out to Westminster as per usual and attract some investment like Manchester has been doing for decades.

On "Mr Drone"'s video of the test event, it looked like he and his 3 Kopite mates had to show the tickets on his phone at the main gate but they weren't scanned at that point. They were then scanned properly on entering the stadium itself.

Agh ok. Tbh, that does make sense. Again, I haven't been, but I'd of thought that they'd do that. Stops all us riff raffs, going all over the gaff.

I'm gonna be annoyed if any of these fellas get in for any of the next events. I didn't mind him getting the ticket last time, but it'll be a really bad look if he's handed another free ticket and makes videos about it.
