New Everton Stadium

Ok question to all.
What shape do you think it'll be? Not what you want it to be.
In my humble opinion, a 4 sided would look boss no doubt. And if it was built in any other location than the river side, that's what we'd go with.
I just think the planners will go with something that doesn't just scream 'football stadium'.

Everyone will experience a different design, according to their dreams ...

It could be done with more of a flourish, the exterior, I grant you.

Imagine something like the brand spanking new Bordeaux stadium exterior (below) designed by Herzog...only larger with three tiers.

It'd be a masterpiece and retain the classical shape of a football ground.

There's an idea, putting the pillars on the outside of the stadium.

I'm expecting a ground-breaking 6 sided stadium wrapped in a steel and blue cladding geodesic dome.
 

Yeah, so do I. I'd also bear in mind though that any traditional shaped stadium that was around the 65-70,000 capacity mark on a waterfront site in the port of Liverpool would ensure it was unique almost regardless of what could be done with interior/exterior innovation.

Quite so Dave need to stand out and not just be a big end like that other place.

I think that there will be a small element of rounded edge to the design, externally at least. There is a reason the 'bowl' shape is popular, and it'll be an economic one.

I hope though that we have stands that run as parallel as possible to the pitch, I don't really care what they do at the corners, so long as it doesn't push the main stands out from the pitch side.

All new stadiums have to be something like 10 metres back now to host major football events.
