Farewell Goodison Park. A mother, a servant, a guardian, a beloved home.
- Thread starter rylojr
- Start date
Please. My app links never load. It's so frustrating.
Love.
I love Goodison and all it means to so many, but I cannot wait to leave. I hope it remains on some shape or form, but without the benevolent Mr. Usmanov funding the legacy project I fear the worst.
- Walking up. I used to walk up from the south end alongside Stanley Park and loved how the ground grew. In recent years its always been walking down from the Black Horse, you turn the corner and it s there. Towering over all around it.
- Seeing the pitch, every time.
- Memories of proper good times. (Even the traumatic good times)
- The pillars.
- The miserable facilities
- When you leave and the escalators are broken
- Countless home twattings from our lovely neighbours
I love Goodison and all it means to so many, but I cannot wait to leave. I hope it remains on some shape or form, but without the benevolent Mr. Usmanov funding the legacy project I fear the worst.

As a non-native Evertonian, I don't feel as qualified to comment on this, but here we go...
Love: how it feels like home. I was born and raised in the north east and attended st james' park a few times with my dad. But something always felt wrong and missing. I've only been to goodison twice (personal circumstances) but each time there has been an immediate sense of belonging and "I'm home". I also love the architecture and atmosphere around the ground on match days.
Hate: the fact that I've not been able to go as much as I would have liked to. Hopefully I'll get there a few more times this season.

I had an issue at the Guinness machines at the match when first introduced, the young girl kept using the wrong plastic glass, using the coors ones twice.
Guy behind me had a go at her saying sort yourself out you’re taking the p***, I said don’t take it out on her she’s been given the wrong ones. He said I’m not having a go at her, literally just shook my head at him whilst he was pulling faces and muttering crap to himself.
People like them have probably never worked in a customer service role and have no understanding the problems these people have.
I was tempted to throw him through the ground wall like.

Sadly, despite his horrendous past and ownership. Usmanov and his team did seriously want to invest in the women’s team.
Had his wrongun brass beating nephew running the show but they did invest serious cash into the women’s game. We had Alisso Russo and the insta famous Lehman signing. I remember him posting on social media after they had to leave “what are they doing to the great womens team” or something in those words.
We wouldn’t have had the Walton park stadium if it wasn’t for them.

How did you do that?
Started a thread called Goodison Special Events, there is a link on page one, it was on the Everton App yesterday, not sure its fully open for registering yet but some great stuff planned to celebrate our last year at Goodison.

Thanks mate, wasn’t aware of that.
Its a weird one, as seems like most of us weren't and I just renewed the Membership and thought I'd Read through the articles.
Its great but you would think they would have made more of it!
