New Everton Stadium

[deipnosophist]

Oh I'm quite sure we'll have concrete plans and designs eventually - that part is easy. We've done it THREE TIMES previously - the Cronton stadium in 1997/98, Kings Dock in 2002, and Kirkby Fun Dome in 2007.

It's the actual 'getting planning permission' and 'spade in the ground' parts that are highly unlikely.

Not to mention all the Kopite NIMBYS that will now launch a campaign to save Walton Hall Park.

This is as certain an eventuality as night following day.

If you want a laugh/fume, check out the Roger Phillips phone in on Radio Merseyside tomorrow lunchtime.

Nailed on that it will be full of whinging Kopites 'saving our Park'.

The lighting at night is one of the first considerations. It should emit a shimmering blue that can be seen from space.

What do you think a new stadium and things like cross rail and other infrastructure is?

Keynesian

 

[deipnosophist]

They should combine the new stadium with a rail transport sytem...and build lots of new pubs in the locale.

Thursday's game is live on ITV4, which is a free TV channel. The attendance will be low as a result of that.

You'd think that our finance team would have some kind of scientific way of assessing the best pricing structure for cup games, one which weights factors like live TV coverage, attractiveness of opposition, importance of the games in the context of the competition concerned etc. Clearly not though. Seems the only factor they've thought of in making the pricing decision for thursday's game is that it''s our first EL game for 4 or so years. Whoever argued for and went along with these prices for Wolfsburg shows a complete lack of understanding of what motivates fans to part with another big lump of their income. Presumably Suntan Bob was part of the decison-making group -- say no more.

It would seem the news broke early across the park.

They need to build an exact replica of goodison but with higher walls and cleaner toilets. Otherwise I'm out.

Oh great, now we need holy water and a man who knows how to purify earth.

Well. We do now have the highest growth in the western world and G7

Greens already kicking off. "We will fight this"...

Jog on you tree hugging whoppers. Didn't hear a peep out of you when the Kopites got handed Stanley Park.

Has someone taken a photo of the plans and how we pay it from the back of the ciggie packet.
