New Everton Stadium

[MACCA75]

50k with a running track, and potential to move the entire stadium to Kirkby is what I heard.

Seriously though, if there is the possibility that this stadium gets used for the Commonwealth Games, then we need to completely re-negotiate the financing, and the council would need to dig deep.

We already have a stadium next to a sewage treatment plant... (anfield)

Remove "treatment" and you are bang on!!

got to be bigger mate because I'm assuming they are going to want to have maybe 3/5k worth of corporate tickets so it wouldn't be much of an increase would it. 55k for the usual match goers and 3/4k corporate and that would be ideal imo

I would be happy with a total 55k simply for the fact it keeps us within touching distance of the clubs above us and makes us the biggest ground in the city which makes somewhat of a statement.

The fact is clubs down the line like Newcastle, Villa, West Brom, Southampton will all no doubt be increasing size in the future we need to be up there.

I agree with 55k. Liverpool will expand to 60k when they do the ARE but it will be akin to putting lipstick on a pig. A new high spec stadium in a regenerated Dockland location should make more in non match day revenue then Anfield will. I really don't care about having a few thousand less seats. 50-55k would be more intimate and the atmosphere less diluted.

I don't think Villa is coming back up any time soon, and the Baggies and Southampton would have to at least double the sizes of their grounds to get up to 60k. I think there are at most a dozen clubs that could support a ground of that size:

Man U
Arsenal
Chelsea
Spurs
RS
Man City? (jury might still be out there)
Everton
Newcastle
Villa (if they're not in the process of doing a Leeds)
Sunderland?
Leeds?

Not Sunderland. They have a 49k seat stadium and average 41k. They always have the lowest % seats filled in the Prem.

I'll only be bothered about birthday greetings and a bottle of wine when I'm your age.

I think, like me, you'll also be bothered about how long it seems to be taking to reach 65 and retirement!

 

[Onwards Evertonians]

I doubt Leeds could, their all time record attendance is only 57,000, they're more interested in Rugby League there. They've spent half of their history in the lower divisions.

Looking at the waterfront development as a whole, I think the sewage area will be shut down at some point
early in the process. I mean hotels, top of the range residential properties, entertainment venues, etc...

 

[gorgeousgeorgeEFC]

My only concern is the capacity, they really would be going small time with 50k

There's no way that our new stadium will only be the tenth biggest in the league.

Mr Moshiri is too ambitious for that.

It will be 60,000, minimum.

 

[Aar_the_Toffees]

Utterly ridiculous...







As if they are scoring 1.

Even in our wildest dreams we can't keep a clean sheet against that lot.

No lads. This is all perfect. We have a 1-0 lead at half time. A few minutes after the 2nd half beings, they level things. Up until the 80th minute it's 1-1, then Everton show the world who the real pride of Merseyside is. We score 4 goals in the last 10 minutes of the game and absolutely destroy Scandinavian hearts.
