Without reading the article, is it just using the stadium as is or redeveloping it into a more modern, smaller site for the women’s team? The latter would be cool and make sense. Can’t see how we can afford to run it otherwise!

I guess we have the option of selling it to ‘ourselves’, if Everton women are run as a different entity but same owners.

We’ll see your hotel Chelsea and raise you a stadium

Doubt this is the case btw, but what’s good for the goose and all that

I'd kind of resigned myself to the fact that I'll never get to Goodison again and gave up all hope today. My mate tried to get tickets for the Arsenal game and never got further than the queue, just an absolute lottery now, sold out by about 10.10am.

Think it's a bit shite that people can still buy up to six tickets per transaction, pretty sure there will be a lot of touts with clever systems that have bought membership and will be able to get tickets using bots or some such other technology that they have. My mate says he's seen tickets for sale online for £300. I said at the time that the club should have closed new membership and only people that had been members for at least two years should be allowed to renew but 50k+ members at £35 is a decent extra couple of million quid. I guess plenty fans will still get to games but they'll be paying a fortune for the tickets in many cases.

128 tickets on Stubhub, the cheapest of which is 239 euros.

That's from a match that only went on sale today. Club should have done something about it but clearly they don't care.

Government makes it illegal to resell any event tickets above face value

Job done

People who genuinely can’t make events get their money back from selling them. Touts can’t rip people off and make stupid profit

That won't happen anytime soon. I'll stick with mine because it's worked before

Everything should be flast levels of security.

Photo or fingerprint to get in.

At this stage I'd be happy with a new company having my DNA and making me spit into a jar to get into a gig if it meant touts could be fucked off

Pretty simple, bouncing up and down and using the shoulders of others for extra leverage. One bounce in the wrong direction and caught the seat on the way down. Cracked it.

At this age I should know better!

This. Tickets can only be re-sold on the platform they're bought from, and for a maximum of the original published price. Should be that you can try and get some of your money back[After fees] instead of losing it all in the event you can't go, and thats it.

Tickets are then distributed digitally to the person listed[Original or re-sold purchaser] right before the event, or collected from the box office on the day on production of ID or the payment card.

Ticketmaster going the way of Uber and introducing surge pricing just means you pay tout prices to a different type of cunt though.

I hate the whole market.

Just FIVE to go now, frighteningly close now :(

Bad work day, spent the last hour watching all the farewell to Goodison videos. That really hasn't helped!

Probably just airing the 'idea' so that seats arent ripped out after the final whistle.
