New Everton Stadium

[Armaghtoffee]

2016: EFC stadium announcement
2019: CG successful city announcement for 2026
2021: new stadium open and ready for football (could even be 2020, we don't know)
2026: CG which may or may not be held in Liverpool

Can't imagine MEIS being asked at this stage to spend much time factoring in a running track and sand pits.

People are choosing to focus on worst case scenarios. It's illogical to think that this is dependent on the CGs. No way would Meis be going along with a pipe dream and no way would they put their name on a stadium a la West Ham.

This is happening, the dock is going to make both Peel, Everton and the city of Liverpool lots of money. That is why I'm so confident. Moshiri didn't buy us to steal TV money, the real return lies in a top class stadium with a top class team.

Exactly.

What we want, he wants as well. Even if for slightly different reasons.

Too much of a coincidence in all this Commonwealth games bid and a new stadium for Everton,this is how it will be funded,no way are they going to build 2 stadiums.

Three other cities are bidding aswell so far, our stadium isn't reliant on the CWG in 2026.

One does not automatically beget the other, and any return on investment for a new stadium isn't going to be overnight. I just hope Mosh accepts that he's in it for the long haul.

I would give him 10 years max; he'll deliver the stadium, transform us on and off the field and sell us while on an upward curve.

Nonsense, sorry.

 

[TheFinnFan]

no way are they going to build 2 stadiums.

What do you mean by that exactly

 

[arch stanton]

"they" won't, we'll build one and if required, LCC can build little baby athletics one

Who's 'they?'

 

[Dave Higgs]

Who's 'they?'

think you have rumbled one

 

[The Cowboy]

Who's 'they?'

I think 'they' be LCC. Using your kopfinder general logic, Everton aren't building two stadia, so they clearly mean the council.

So does anyone know where the athletics will be held for the cg bid? You have to show a stadium when you bid,you can't just turn round and say we might build one if we get the games! Sorry to ruin the San mames on the Mersey fantasy,

Given the sports minister's glowing reaction yesterday to Birmingham's proposed bid you have to wonder whether a Liverpool bid will ever get off the ground.

 

[The Esk]

The CG is a complete red herring and has nothing to do with Everton's plans for our own stadium.

There are no compromises - all that has been said is that the stadium could be used in any successful bid. That could be for the opening ceremony rather than as an athletics stadium for example.

A formal bid for the CG does not have to be made before March 2018 and as Anderson has already stated is heavily dependent upon central Government funding.

Given the reliance on government funding and the timing plus the view that our stadium will not be compromised, no one should be in any way concerned.
