It has been a number of weeks since Everton played at the Hill Dickinson Stadium following a promising start to life on the docks.
However, it has not been total smooth sailing for the Blues as some Everton fans have raised concerns over stadium transport.
Ahead of the game on Sunday, there is another concern among fans as the club have had to release a statement on the issue.
Everton release statement after Hill Dickinson Stadium issue
The Hill Dickinson Stadium has changed Everton’s finances with huge new revenue streams coming into the club.
For the large part, Everton fans have been delighted with the move to the docks, but some fans have noticed their digital tickets for the weekend change date.
With some tickets now displaying the fixture as being played in June, Everton have taken to social media to share an update on the issue.
What ticketing issues have you already experienced at the Hill Dickinson Stadium? 😫
‘We’re aware of a visual error on some Season Tickets for the Brentford game. The Ticket Office is working to resolve this,’ the statement read.
‘Tickets will work as normal on Sunday. Please don’t delete your Season Tickets from your phone wallet.’
Despite Everton moving into their new home, the Friedkins are going to invest in Goodison Park as the club looks to keep the Old Lady functioning.
Fans will be desperate to get back into the Hill Dickinson this Sunday and they will be delighted to know that they will not experience any issues at the turnstiles on the back of this update.
Everton fans ready for Hill Dickinson Stadium return
Following the loss against Arsenal, Everton have some wrongs to right after pushing the Premier League leaders all the way.
Mark Clattenburg explained Thierno Barry’s penalty appeal after being kicked by William Saliba in the last outing at the Hill Dickinson.
What do you miss most about Goodison Park after months in the Hill Dickinson Stadium? 🥺
The new stadium has surpassed all expectations so far 🔥
The move to the docks has seen some great memories already formed, but the Blues may well feel as if they are still waiting for a statement victory against one of the top sides.
By no means will three points against the Bees tick that box, but it would be a huge win given they currently sit just one spot behind Everton in the table.
Three points for Everton against Brentford could take the Blues as high as fifth.
