New Everton Stadium Discussion

[JLW]

So what personal touches would you like to see on the new stadium?

 

[Milkman]

I've said before on this thread, though is unlikely given the rather tight plot on the docks, that I'd like to see a stadium where a host of entertainment, hospitality and retail units are harmoniously built into the stands themselves, with the pitch at the centre. I always picture a cross between the O2 and GCHQ (The Doughnut), but it would need a lot of land to achieve it.

That's a cracking stadium that, mate. Should tweet it to Meis and co.

 

[tommytowne]

I can get carried away if I want to.

Of course you can me old mucker.
I have been doing the same thing for ever, or so it seems with this club.
I know we live in a new era where Nothing Will Be The Same, but lets see how things pan out eh? Nobody will be happier than me, believe me.

 

[Ihaters]

Yep, the Everton Fun and Happiness Complex.

Or Everton's crippling inferiority complex ?

Ha, it's not a stadium, it's an office. It is kinda cool though.

Mayor of Liverpool, Joe Anderson, has said that he hopes Liverpool City Council and Everton Football Club will be able to make an announcement on a new stadium for the club within the next few months.

Speaking to our Everton Podcast, lifelong Evertonian Anderson said that the club and the council had been working hard together in order to develop a scheme that would suit both council and club.

“We’re looking at a number of offers from the club, and we’ve made offers to them as to how we can help progress things,” said Mayor Anderson.

“There are a number of sites that we’ve been considering and we’re doing all we can.

“I’m sure that reasonably shortly there’ll be a discussion and a debate taking place between ourselves and people of the city about something that we’ve been working on.

“I’m optimistic that we’ll be able to put forward a suitable solution within the next couple of months.

“The council will work with the club to look at how we can support them, not necessarily in a financial investment in the club, but perhaps in the same way that we’ve done with Liverpool.

“We’ve invested quite a substantial amount of money around the area [of Anfield] and I’m sure Liverpool Football Club would be the first to admit that.

“We’re working with Everton and I’m confident that we’ll be able to put a proposal forward shortly.”

No Groundshare

When asked about the potential for a ground share with Liverpool Football Club, Anderson was determined that both clubs have their own proposals that are so far advanced that the idea of a share is now dead in the water.

Adding that he would have been behind such a scheme, he said, “I think it could have worked, it’s not going to work, but the thing that I want is for both clubs to be successful and have money coming out of their ears and buy the top players without worrying about a groundshare or whatever.

“But if it saves you tens of millions of pounds a year and you can work together then I would have been supportive of it.

“But it’s not going to happen. The proposals from both clubs are so far advanced now that it’s academic, so let’s move on from that.”

Looks too much like Wham's and on that basis I'm out...

Oh of course it would need to be heavily modified to bear no resemblance to that place.

So what personal touches would you like to see on the new stadium?

I think we need to retain some of the character of the dock... maybe not fill it in completely.. leave an area under the stadium filled with water.... build the section for away fans above it, but incorporate a giant trapdoor .... would come in handy I think......

My old fella is 94 years of age. If I do as well as him I have got 29 years in which I would be able to walk, or be pushed, into our new ground.
So that seven millionth page is not out the question you know.
