Many might, but the rags will get at least 50,000 per home game and will make a few bob.

It’s the likes of him that will manage to get drones restricted more than they are already. I’m surprised the city staff took him on, there are enough drones flying over it at the moment so you would think they must of been mentioned somewhere.
DJ audits went to the new Everton stadium and got nowhere, they just told him “carry on, we have loads every day”

They are struggling this time, my son is a season ticket holder and has just had an email saying he can buy up to 6 additional tickets for carabao cup and europa league.

It’s shocking that 2 young clueless coppers turned up in separate vehicles with their pants tucked into their socks for a perfectly legal hobby ffs.
The state of policing these days!

The trouble with this is, that pillock who challenged the Security Staff and had to chat to the two coppers actually KNOWS the rules and has just done this to provoke a response from people he knows are unlikely to know the rules, despite him knowing he is actually in the clear (when the stadium is basically empty of course) - but that wouldn't provide any entertaining content for his 'channel' would it?
BTW I am actually a drone owner, and am correctly registered as an operator and a flyer, but currently NOT flying at the moment as my drone is an older heavy one which would need additional registration, insurance blah blah etc - when I get around to buying a new DJI Mini which is under the 250g limited I will start flying again. May be at the Etihad? ;-)
There was another a few weeks back at the Swamp where the flyer (probably the same guy) did EXACTLY the same thing - he provoked the security staff similarly and then from just off rag property flew his drone over the top of the swamp winding them up!

Shit stirring **** looking for confrontation
No, it's not me.
I have got a drone which is still boxed and unopened. There are too many rules and regulations, as well as getting insurance, etc, for me to be bothered to learn how to fly the drone safely and properly. I'll leave it to the professional drone flyers like CP Overview who produce excellent drone videos
Credit to everyone, they stayed civil and nice to him despite him clearly tying to provoke a reaction. He had fuck all to show as well. What a twat.
But at least we learned the bike outside the chippy was orange!

Starting to feel mixed emotions about the North Stand expansion. The hotel, museum, forecourt and most of the seating will cost a bomb. Doubt we'll see affordable fair-priced football again when this all opens.
The stand cost won't be far off than the cost of them 3 combined.
Those three will more than pay for themselves though, and a chunk of the stand too. Longer term.

true mate, sharing a season ticket is an option if you can, i do this and we pull the games from a bag at the start of the season, it was always going this way once the club was taken over, still its better than wading through the piss in the bogs behind the kippax esp if you had a hole in the sole of your trainer and covering your nose with your t-shirt so not to breathe in the piss steam

I didn’t expect to see an extruded brick facade. :-)
