New Everton Stadium

[ically]

We've only averaged 50,00 once in our history haven't we?

Goodison Park as great as it is, is a nightmare for a non local to plan to come to and watch the game. Parking, getting in and out, getting tickets where u want them etc etc...bringing the kids or the whole family is just hard work tbh.

A new stadium will attract plenty more out of town fans to make the trip more often.

Anyone know IF this was all to go ahead. What sort of time span would we be looking to moving in?? About 5 yrs or longer/shorter?

All depends on the planning application. Could be a while before that's done.

The good news is that we have a site, just can't see how its going to be funded by this lot.

in 1887 yes mate

50k IMO would be the sensible way to go. A new stadium attracts more fans anyway, better facilities, better match day experience, successfull team on the pitch....all combine. Ok maybe we wouldn't fill it week in week out but it's gonna have plenty of big games per season when it would be full.

This can lead to nothing but a great future for the club. Not that Goodison is terrible, but there's nothing like a new facility, with excellent, new training equipment and updated locker rooms, etc. to win over some quality players and get some of the young kids to commit to the School of Science instead of becoming Kopite trash.

Unless they call it "Dog Fouling Park." Then we're fooked.

We don't have a site. We have a 'desire' to use the site.

Would calling the stadium the School of Science be too tacky?

Lets hope Bill's Production of " A streetcar named desire " is a big hit.

At this moment in time i can't see it happening, its still a pipe dream. Just wondering if someone is in the shadows to launch a takeover.

lol no mate...I was referring to the stadium opponents, not you

Ahhhh I see. Bad weirdos they are lid.

Already said the naming rights will help fund the stadium.

The Ben and Jerrys Arena

Not with FFP the way it is it isn't.

It is. If we don't spend and others do no matter the amount. But hey we don't need a team just a stadium with our reserves will do.
Wake up mate we can't save our transfer budgets to pay for a stadium and hope we can get along.

...I think we could be clever utilising the space, perhaps seating 50k to meet demand, but when it doesn't exist bringing youngsters in at significant reduction or even extending corporate space.

 

[tmgc]

Can we regularly sell out a 50,000 stadium in that area? And going forward, is that our realistic optimal attendance size? I'm assuming we could never regularly fill a 57,000 seat stadium, right?

It all comes down to ticket prices.

 

[toffee matt]

Do we have any idea how much this is all going to cost yet?

....good news, but my picture is up in the Walton Hall Liverpool Schoolboy library, so I'm starting a petition for a move to Kirkby!!!
