The days of just SAFC fans going to the same are gone. The club would recoup the extension money very quickly. The North Stand extension cost £7m, would maybe be double that now, though we'd get it back fairly quickly with concerts and corporate.
But there is
I think the costs could be way more than double that £7m. Almost 30 years ago our stadium, Black Cat House and extension cost a total of £23m. Everton’s new stadium was almost £800m so that gives an idea of how much construction costs have increased.
When you're on a modest wage, it's difficult to comprehend that there are people, or employers, out there who are prepared to stump up hundreds for one match. It doesn't mean it isn't true though.
Agree. £560 to watch a match is money I would be spending on a holiday or putting toward. I think it’s obscene to be fair.
I'd imagine that quite often people are buying them as a very special treat for themselves or being gifted them for a special occasion, and others will be from generous employers.
You mean the tickets that were sent back by Brentford, that probably the majority of fans don't know about ?Still few unsold for tomorrow
But lets add another 7000 seats

All of which went on sale yesterday, but don’t let that stop your negativity
The bloke's a masochist man. Loves criticising our support.... ad nauseum.
They can't fully sell what they've got at that price. Boxes sell well though, as would something priced at old BCB level.
There’s only 10 seats left in banks. 3 weeks before a game.
I think the club should be looking at finding room for more Founders club type “entry level” hospitality.
But that’s extending an old ground, ours was built with extending in mind, would be nowhere near those costs
