New Everton Stadium

[CrustySack]

I'd say there was a fair few buckets of vomit in that meeting room from the Reds on the committee

I think LCC officials are seeing their own backside at the moment due to the cuts imposed on them by National Government. They see this as a very welcome boost and something that is rather more important than their red or blue allegiance.

I'm in work, so just scimmed over it, but from what I've read they've approved a £300m stadium; does that mean the capacity won't be changing from 50,000 then?

£300 million and 50,000 are just two loose figures to get the ball rolling.

Well if it takes us 12 months from here to find investors you will be proved correct.

I personally think the investors are already onboard.

Totally agree, Moshiri made his considerable fortune by setting up exactly this type of funding vehicles for what was to become USM holdings. These guys don't like to be seen as failing to deliver as it affects their standing in the business world so I'm with the Wiz on this. He has at the very least sounded out the funding partners and investors and has probably shaken hands on stuff if not as yet put pen to paper.
Imagine all these series of events like selling up at Arsenal, buying into Everton, getting Peel and the LLC to play ball, getting Mies to knock the drawings up and then saying.... Er.....Sorry.... I can't get the dosh for this..... Let's stay at the Old Lady.... He be walking round with an upside down 99 cornet on his head for the rest of his natural. No boys...as my magical mate said.... It's all been sorted.

am i being stupid worrying about the commonwealth games?
there wont be a running track or nothing will they? [that's even if Liverpool get it]
probs been posted here enough times like but like to be reassured. West Hams is terrible.

also is the 300m figure just an estimate? im sure spurs cost 400 but
that is a 60k stadium and doubt very much we will get that many but wouldn't
it cost abit more also to leave room to expand?.. sorry if sound depressing just curious.

what do you think about using the new stadium for other events like concerts and Athletics

Concerts nailed on. Athletics, no way.

The whole point of building a new stadium is to increase revenue by staging as many events , conferences etc as possible. You do not want a building to stand idle for most of the year. It's not just so we can buy a king sized hot dog and a plastic cup of fizzy beer a bit quicker at half time.

There's a thought, he may incorporate a knocking shop into the stadium design!
