New Everton Stadium

[Jacko93]

lads, we simply can not finance bramley moore dock stadium. peel have already been nudging us on it. theres waaay too much red tape building on world heritage sites.

Not true. UNESCO are an advisory board, cant say yay or nay on anything other than WHS.

 

[onlyme]

It will never be built lads, I read in the Mail that the world will end in October and before all you cynics deride it, the author is deeply religious so he wouldn't lie, oh and his mate is selling underground survival shelters.

Elstone said we're making efforts to find the money to make the stadium viable. Translation: we're seeking funding.
That's obviously why Keith Harris was brought in and why we were recenly given a public nudge by Peel.

His only thought is about whether the project is viable, not financially viable.

We'll see mate. Would be nice if they could.

Might have to eat humble pie after Joe Anderson statement tonight. Whilst I don't think they'll make a spur from the existing northern line track they might be planning to open up up an old branch line from edge hill. http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/l/liverpool_waterloo_goods/

They are currently strengthening the road over Great Howard St by Costco which crosses Waterloo Tunnel. There are plans to expand the number of platforms at Lime St but this is still not expected to cope with the expected capacity in rail growth. This could be a solution they have in mind.

I don't believe anything will be said tonight other than a brief nod to that fact we are planning to build a new stadium.

Gonna vault this...because I think it was pretty accurate.

Reopening of the wapping junction has been mooted for a long time, that would require work in dropping the level of the current floors to allow for modern train height, but has been in MerseyRails long term strategy for many years. In plan to be done for 2019-2022 which also allows for another city center station, not including that at Stanley docks. Talk is also of updating current frieght lines to carry passengers and improve entire northern area train connections. Could be an extention to that as much more frieght will travel on the river with Liverpool 2 and investment in the manchester canal ports.

Elstone tonight;
"the City Council and its willingness to explore options to support our efforts to find the money to make the stadium viable, the biggest challenge we’ve always faced."

Joe Anderson May 2016 after meeting Mosh:
"the finance is going to be there and met by the club."

It was confirmed that the docks is the preferred site and we're working towards that. There are other potentials in place as you'd expect in this situation.

More than a 'brief nod' imo

Support our efforts is to do with infrastructure/access etc not fund the stadium

Yeh...true.

In reality though, we are further behind than most expected. People believed we had the dock site pretty much all wrapped up...and it's not even close. It's merely top of the shortlist.

TBH, I was perfectly happy with what was said. I understand it's complicated business and it'll all take a lot of time.

someone mentioned on here that it was going to be shovels in the ground at BMD 2017 or early 2018!

I personally don't expect anything as I have no idea how things like this work, like an awful lot of evertonians. So if they're disappointed it's not as far along as they 'expected', that's not a fault of the people in charge of making it happen.

Agree with your last line
