New Everton Stadium

Cant see it myself - you'll have players doing slidies. The result being St John's ambulance staff having to scrape their remains off the dock wall!

There seems to be the advertising hoardings between the pitch and the stand like you have round any ground so there’s a bit of a buffer between the players and the wall.

Meis did say at St Luke's that the pitch fits in the dock perfectly. It has also been reported that the existing Dock Wall must be retained, so that is probably what is visible behind the goal.

I've only just noticed that brick wall you mention. Surely of we are gonna try and be right on top of the pitch there will be no chance to be building a brick wall round the perimeter? Sounds like a nuts idea!

They are furious as they know the fans are going to be upset as this leaked document shows the version before they integrated the latest round of capacity and cost savings. The next one that comes out will just be a 45k version of the king power stadium. :D

I have it on good authority that the final plans for BMD are a 38,000 seat redevelopment somewhere in L4

To be honest, I think the dock wall behind the goal is spurious. Probably inserted by Dan Meis for some comic effect, given that the audience was the Sports Ground Safety Authority, no doubt had them all chortling.

2) the 250m is a interest free loan he can recall on at any time.

This bit is my favorite part of the madness. It's a loan between the club and the man Mosirhi (or his investment instrument). If Moshiri wants to call the loan, the club has to pay it. So if the club pays the loan, it comes from the club's books (which hurts Mosihiri's share value) or from he club's owner (which is himself). Moshiri owns about 68% of the club and values these shares at roughly £140MM (although he did not pay this much). If he calls his loan, it reduces the book value of the shares, which he must then fix by ponying up the money or sell shares at a loss. And if he bungles it all and is forced to sell to a third party, nobody is going to take the debt as well as the shares, so he has to eat his loan to sell. He may have grand plans for making a dime off of EFC, but it isn't through a related party loan. Really, get a grip.

I think (b) is the back of the home end ( the big home end ) mate which overhangs a little but yeah I do hope your right and it's some kind of place where you can sit off and admire the view as that deffo points out towards the city centre

Meis claimed you'd be able to see the Three Graces from BMD; I was hoping from in the stands, but this seems to be what he's talking about.

FYI:

 
I'm sure it will be a good building, in terms of design, but I'm disappointed with a pretty ordinary looking aesthetic. Was expecting a bit more wow factor, something unique like the aborted Chelski stadium.

It might be an optical illusion, but am I the only one that sees the pitch being below ground level?

Being that you have to fill to build, there's no specific requirement that you build it all at "street" level. Drainage and flooding would be the main consideration, I think, but it certainly gives you room to do what you want. I'd guess NWHL and such had to excavate quite a bit to build foundations even if they want to build at street level. But yes, it's probably just an illusion.

I’m hoping for more information on as to how we reach a eventual capacity of 62,000. Seems to have just been thrown in there to appease fans in regards to the small capacity.

It will never happen..
Unless when you change seats for standing then you increase capacity... Which from my understanding is that it doesn't

I'm sure that you're aware that @havrey0123 is a Kopite and therefore comes with limited intelligence....
