New Everton Stadium

[davek]

C’mon, don’t be harsh; they also put a fan survey together!

Yes. I beg your pardon.

A fan survey they wont publish the findings of.

The Key principles document promised back in August...anyone any idea when this might see the light of day?

"funding target has escalated significantly...

...It’s a challenge...

Our hope, and our target, is..."


You dont have to be Noam Chomsky to read between the lines on that.

our hope. Jesus, after all the flim flam, we hope to have a stadium ready in fiveyears time but the costs are spiralling, and it's already twenty percent more than we thought. Let's not be holding our breath on this one.

 

[Onwards Evertonians]

Weird random press release surely to make us forget about the horrific performance we witnessed yesterday. It literally didn't tell us anything we didn't already know.

We're always on the back of a disappointing performance, we're Everton. We'd have nothing released ever if we were relying on an amazing run to release information.

‘Rising costs’ = minimal transfer spend in next few windows. Coincides with Allardyce publicly calling out his strike force as not good enough.

Apart from that £130m at the bottom of the balance sheet...

 

[GwladysBlue]

It honestly wouldn’t surprise me if the lowballed the initial cost of £300m, which everyone said was unrealistic, just so they have a get out to say that costs have doubled.

Thanks for Brexit: Sunderland, Burnley, Blackburn, Watford and any other backwater shanty town.

Bob mentioning that he is looking forward to fans being involved in the design process in 2018. I thought that was the whole point of the fan survey.

Amateur hour at this club, it really is.

Why am I not surprised that Dave is in here spinning unfounded nonsense?

It's an utter shambles.

Almost nothing has happened to make this scheme a reality, now we're told the timetable is kicked into the long grass and that funding is a challenge.

How anyone gives that flim flam man Moshiri more credit than the other fantasist Kenwright I have no idea. The pair of them are clowns.

Another useless carpet bagger to add to the list with Gregg and Earl.

Unfounded.

Ha Ha Ha ha.

??

Stadium is already two years behind projected date and the funding isn't in place, nor any designs.

Not sure what he is saying that is wrong

I think that's the process for the use of GP "after we move". Fat 'kin chance like.

Dave can be ultra negative, but what he is saying in here is the truth.

That statement has been put out to dampen expectations.

 

[MickA]

The comment about capacity caught my eye. I'd really like to know what the initial brief was and if it has changed what caused it. It's certainly intimated that the club were too conservative at the outset.

 

[Jacko93]

Basically here's what\s happened in a year with this project: a head of terms statement agreed with Peel.

That's it.

Yeah, cause the design of a stadium takes absolutely no time at all.

We would be a right laughing stock if this goes awry.
