New Everton Stadium

Look at West Ham playing in the Olympic Stadium.

The exact opposite to that please.

Upton Park was worth 10 points to them every season. They could be in trouble this year. Teams like juventus moved from their bowls to proper hight tier stadiums and improved results almost immediately ( the players and football probably had something to do with that also)
 

The same people are on the board, but those moves ultimately failed because of one reason and one overriding reason only - LACK OF MONEY.

That is not the case this time around. The person steering the ship now does have the funds required.

They knew that had no money before they started all the projects but were prepared to send us to the wastelands for 6m extra a year.
Same faces behind the figurehead lol.
 
Spurs....planning permission granted Sept 2011; CPO issued July 2014 effectively giving approval to proceed; legal challenge Feb 2015 but unsuccessful; new designs drawn up in meantime and a new planning permission granted in Dec 2015; stadium opening planned for 2018/19

2021/22 for us looks consistent with that.

You probably shouldn't use our timeline for estimates. The CPO situation made buying the land around WHL very hard it looked for quite a while like there was no way forward. It took the whole Olympic Stadium situation and the threat of a legal battle before Levy got talks with the Mayor of London and only then did it all seem to actually kick into gear.

If we could have got the land without any challenge back in 2011 we would already be playing in a new stadium. So if you guys don't have any trouble acquiring the land you want to build on it should go much faster.
 
I'm not really getting the in keeping with heritage thing. The closest building of historic importance is the tobacco warehouse and then you have the dock walls. So will the stadium just have a nod towards these in its design or be something like Lucas Oil? Surely not going to build a 60k seater stadium made out of red brick.

We might have heritage issues to be overcome, incorporated into plans etc. Your stadium was in the same area, ours won't be, so brand new transport links and ease of movement aspects need to be conceived. Swings and roundabouts compared to Spurs, what will be quicker on one hand will take longer on another.

Lucas oil or Miller park which is one of Dan Meis designs, would be made up with this like

Yeah I guess I didn't consider those things. Either way it will be interesting to see what kind of timeline is involved.

Also I can't be the only one that thinks Miller Park looks more like a shopping mall from the outside rather than any kind of industrial building. Don't think I like it.

That Lucas Oil stadium looks way more industrial, something like that would look amazing on the Liverpool docks. It actually looks like a ship building factory.

Of course, we need to make sure people don't think it actually is a ship building factory!
