New Everton Stadium

[COYB]

imagine singing this in the new iconic state of the art waterfront stadium

A few have mentioned the cost of filling in the dock as adding a significant amount to the overall cost of the stadium build. But architects are trained to work with the landscape. So to me it makes sense to drain and seal the dock and turn it into a ready made underground car park.

If you wanted to build this type of underground structure under an existing building it would cost tens of millions of pounds. Here we have a ready made hole in the ground.

The club could offer a special premium season ticket with some kind of bar scanner which would enable you to drive directly into the underground part of the stadium to your own parking space and take a lift up to the game.

Just an idea.....

Vigorous fapping ensues

I lived in Leigh for 25 years, there is a Stonebridge cross there on the east lancs, possible it's a different place, unless the road is called Stonebridge cross, either way

Why on earth did you live in Leigh for 25 years?

Someone had to xx dead excited here. Praying for ample parking though as it can be a mare some days.

Was born in Bolton hospital an my parents lived there. Moved to Lpool when I met my wife

No wonder he's always Grumpy.

Has the 50K been confirmed anywhere?

No, because it's not true.

No way would Mr Moshiri build what would be by then only the tenth or eleventh biggest stadium in the country.

thought I'd share this from skyscrapercity ..

Iirc they did something along those lines with Liverpool One, there was definitely a dock cause they had to leave some of it viewable

Yeah that Q Park which is always empty as its so expensive!

Most of Liverpool One has a underground section for deliveries im sure, the access road to it is on Hanover Street.

Interesting point Devo has made but I think they are more likely to have a lower pitch

It is true in the sense that it is the figure quoted in the documents being put to LCC cabinet for approval. Is it set in stone? No. Could it yet be changed? Yes. Should we be worried enough to let the club know our views if we want better? Definitely.

That's Stonecross mate. In Lowton. Not Stonebridge Cross.

The lost dock, it caused delays in the build because it needed to be preserved. It was found while the foundations where being put in place for a lot of the underground works at L1

Exactly. Liverpool Football Club have never commanded crowds that high regularly either. Their highest home league crowd ever is 58,757 v Chelsea so they should stick to their limitations and 60,000 would be too high with the facts to back it up.

Crowds at Everton are a completely different ball game as our highest league crowd was 78,299 for the very big games (derbies), and back then we could even get 74-76,000 against Preston and Burnley.

Obviously times have changed but there is only one club in the City that's proved they have had the demand for 60 and 70,000 at certain points in our history. That lot aren't even able to sell out 54,000 at the moment. Haven't once got in to the 54,000 region even in their biggest games.

They haven't got the support. Look at midweek league games when the foreigners and southerners don't travel.
