It sounds like Everton will be fighting for relagation zone in those years.

We have the potential for 62k and the business model makes sense to have a baseline of 52k with 10k more if required. We should be celebrating a new stadium is a step close. That said love Goodison. 💙⚽️💙

I think it will be quickly filled but at least we aren’t saying it can never grow!

I’d accept 55,000 rising to 63,000- 65,000. But an initial 52,000 capacity for land mark stadium on the waterfront just smacks of a lack of ambition by the board. Zero belief.

I’m a bit disappointed in that, due that the figures to fans will go down due to co-operate seating

52,000 is too small now. Shocking that the club have gone this low.

Announcement is great but the starting capacity is terrible.

I think the vast majority of fans will feel this shows a lack of ambition and suggests fans input has been ignored.

Sensible business - 55k to satisfy current demand, and 62k IF we get established at the top table again

52000 isn’t enough. It’s really disappointing. People are too focused on estimating what the attendance would be today and forgetting that this will be our home for the next 100 years.

I think we should be looking at 60 - 70,000 capacity. This will mean prices can stay at a reasonable level and still be able to attract international and prestige matches too.

Spot on for me, would rather fill 52,000 every week than have empty seats

Satisfied it’s a sensible approach. I sit at Goodison now at the start of every game an wonder where another 20’000 fans are going to come from.

Build it for 62,000 but seat it for 52,000. If we sell out every week, as I suspect we will at 52,000 all we have to do is install the additional seats. If we don’t get ready for it now it’ll never get done.

The fact that it could be expanded is great news IMO

Absolutely fantastic news!! Exactly what I was hoping for. We should be focusing on what’s best for us instead of worrying about the capacity of other stadiums. Couldn’t be happier!!

All’s I’ve seen all day is 52k isn’t enough, We have season ticket sales now of 32k with 10k waiting list allow for away fans

Sounds perfect to me, very clever thinking, we need to be champions league on regular basis to fill 60,000 which were not, plus we don't want to loose the atmosphere. 👍

All of a sudden every fan has become an expert in stadium building. 52000 is fine with me

The last thing we need as a club is loads of empty seats like the etihad sometimes has, id rather fill out 52k for 5-10 years, then expand as nessacary, good call by the club

Great news. Definitely the right decision. If performances dip and we go through a bad spell, nothing worse than a half empty stadium. Atmosphere must come first!
