I'll probably cry the day I see us sell out a 60,00+ seater stadium.
We had a rediculous demand each time we went to Wembley so we definitely have the fans.
It will cost far more to extend by 10,000 than just building a 60k instead of a 50k to start with. Man city will have added 14000 seats at a cost of 120 million when they have finished the third tier on the remaining two tier end, that's £8571 per seat. Compare to Meis price of around £6000 a seat and the fact that it would be probably a bit cheaper again as he gave a quote on a 50k stadium.
I like the idea of a small-ish upper tier built onto the main stand that can be closed off if we have problems selling out, but personally i don't think that will be the case.

It's no good having a 50k stadium that's sold out every week if you have no room to manoeuvre, a 60k with even 5k unsold seats is generating more money, you have to factor in the additional food, ale, programmes, merchandise sold etc. Bramley Moore is going to be open seven days a week generating money, whether that be for concerts, events, conferences, stadium tours, and I have a sneaking feeling for week long eating and drinking too. I also believe a new home for the Everton Collection will be found. It's going to be a cash cow. We'll have secured ourselves a place as a top team by then too so extra tv revenue. There's so many money making avenues Moshiri will be exploring. When this is built, the area will be being developed all round, Central Docks, Ten Streets, in years to come, this will be considered town, we'll have a stadium in town! Bring it on, Moshiri knows its importance.
The footprint looks fine with the sub-optimum East-West orientation, but stadiums are nearly always built with a North-South orientation. Someone's being a bit sly with those mock-ups.
Either the club are going to build with the 'wrong' orientation because of the shape of the plot, or it's going to be a tighter squeeze than those mock-ups are showing. Not impossible to get a 60k stadium on a site that size with North-South orientation, but it looks tight...
I've done a quick comparison of the dock site and the Emirates -

ThisMake sense to you lot or just a deluded fantasy of a pint half full Blue with nothing better to do than dream stuff up?
