King speculates Everton’s ‘fear’ as new photographs of Bramley-Moore Dock emerge.

Everton may “fear” fans who choose to watch matches on television rather than visit their new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock. Former Toffees scout Bryan King believes ticket costs will be higher than those at Goodison Park.

The verdict comes after new photos of the club’s new stadium surfaced, with the Toffees poised to relocate there in the near future. Speaking to Goodison News, King stated, “I receive an update every month. It’s looking really well. Goodison Park is one of the country’s most iconic football stadiums, having hosted the World Cup. “The new ground is certainly larger, so it can accommodate more people, but who will enjoy it? Will they play in the Championship or Premier League next season? Hopefully, Everton will be in the Premier League because the stadium is worthy of such a designation.

“It will be a stadium with a capacity of 50,000 to 60,000, and anything will be an improvement over Goodison Park. “Only the atmosphere needs improvement.”It certainly looks the part in the photos. It certainly appears to be a new stadium, one that has been brought into the twenty-first century. But I still don’t see how major teams couldn’t accommodate the same way that big stadiums in America can. Many American football stadiums have been refurbished, with a strong emphasis on hospitality and comfort.

“Of course, the prices of the seats will change significantly from those at Goodison Park. Have a look at Tottenham or the Emirates; they are quite expensive.

“With so much football on TV, it can be easier for fans to watch it on television rather than going to the stadiums. That has to be a concern; having networks that show the Premier League will be significantly less expensive than travelling to a Premier League or Championship team and purchasing a season ticket. Will Everton be a Championship club after they depart Goodison Park? Goodison Park has been an excellent venue for Everton matches for some years, and fans will undoubtedly regret it when the club relocates.

Surprisingly, the new stadium may coincide with a likely relegation from the Premier League. When the Toffees announced their departure from their cherished home on Merseyside, they did not see playing Championship matches at Bramley-Moore Dock.
