New Everton Stadium Discussion

St. Polycarps on Nethy Road?

Yep. View from the other side...

The one on Fountains Road? I would imagine that's too low to see though?

That's St Johns.

Is right Dave, I await my virtual toffee apple

 

[Onwards Evertonians]

Does the ferry river cruise go as far up as the stadium? Might take mini S on a trip on it if it does

 

[arch stanton]

Ooh, good find

 

[SupaStake]

cant wait to fly over and visit once this baby is done

 

[Tom Hughes]

St Silvesters...

 

[davek]

St Silvesters...

Oh yeah, I wasnt paying attention there. Three churces: St Polycarp on the right, St Anthony's central and St Silvesters.

Only just noticed the design of the trusts over the internal windows are a nod to to the Arcibald Leich Lattice's at Goodison.

Is that the town end or the Bootle end?

Sandhills is not round the corner.

Sorry what's your argument against another station being built between BMD and Moorefields?

About £10 million plus worth of arguments. I’ve lived the opposite side of the road from the titanic hotel for over 20 years. There is no need for another station building here. Sandhills is a 5 minute walk to the stadium

Baptised there, Communion, confirmation and marriage there. Probs go in feet first as well

5 minutes?! It's at least double that.

5 minutes?! It's at least double that.

Exactly, easily 10 mins, probably 15.

I mean, it's still walkable of course but it's not doable for everyone.

Hopefully the guys doing the drone footage are back today, need my fix after not getting any videos last week.

 

[PhilM]

5 minutes?! It's at least double that.

It's not far from a mile, so it's close to ten minutes for the those who walk a decent pace, with children or those who aren't the quickest being fifteen plus.

Add the congestion that'll occur when coming out of the ground, you've got to put some extra time on too. Then there'll be the queues to get in and whatnot.

All things considered, I think there's a strong argument for adding an extra station closer to the city.
