Certainly not a ‘Tin Pot club’. Everton often referred to as the ‘ Peoples Club ‘, are very similar club to Burnley in many ways . A traditional working class football club with a passionate and loyal support . As someone who lived in Liverpool for a number of years I have nothing but respect for them and much prefer them to that other lot from the city. It’s worth remembering that if wasn’t for Heysel Everton could well have gone on to lift the European Cup …… it was a wonderful team and they were very harshly treated by the authorities .
I always thought I favoured the blue side of the city. That was before we played them in the PL, and their passionate and loyal support spent some quality time on Belvedere Rd attacking innocent clarets between the coaches, and spitting out of the coach windows on everyone walking past. That’s when I realised the only difference between the two sets of fans from that city is the colour of the shirt they wear.
I have little respect for either of them, and I believe rightfully so.

West Ham's share of the catering income at the London Stadium is miniscule - less than £200k for the season - Spurs turnover £800k+ a game just on food and drink, making more from 19 games of Premier League Matchday catering alone than our club does from all its Matchday, Catering and Retail sales for the year currently.
A lot of Spurs success is down to the added dwell time spend their stadium was built to encourage - Everton will be using that model
There is also a low number of Hospitality and matchday tickets at the London Stadium - the vast majority are season tickets and away fans.
Even City and Liverpool get nowhere near Spurs but who knows.
Time will tell.

So I better take my butties with me to Spurs
It must be a serious rip off to make so much from catering

Much more expensive for NFL games and for concerts
