New Everton Stadium

[Aries]

I feel sick at the thought of leaving GP. Be like losing a family member. Always been there in my life from a toddler. I know nothing else other than thats were im supposed to be every other week and thats were a massive part of my life will always be. Some of my happiest times, some of my worst. It's part of me, and every one of us.
None of us can let that go without a tear and a fight.
But we have to.
We have no other choice really.

I just watched it again and these thoughts came in to my head too. Just how difficult is it going to be watching the game at Goodison for the very last time, knowing we’ll never see it again? So so many memories

Mortgage obviously.

But if I was a billionaire would I still get a mortgage and end up paying more or just pay it off in one go ?

No. I'd obviously pay it up front straight away.

Billionaires don’t tend to live in £600m houses.

Do we find out the capacity alongside the designs?

Also does the capacity have to be decided before planning permission is granted?

There will be some 'variables' to initial PP. There always is, and always expected, on a project of that size.

When this thing gets built negative Nelly will move on to the next moan.

Our motto is nothing but the best is good enough... with negative Nelly its nothing is ever good enough...

Ignore 'them'

Just sit down, buckle up and enjoy the ride if your life!

If your house cost £500m what would you do?

I can't wait to see it,though I know I will hate it because its not Goodison,I know we need to move,but Im not ashamed to say there will be tears in my eyes when those turnstiles close for the last time,we got taken onto the pitch years ago,before all these stadium tours started,walked to the centre circle and the size of the ground was scary,I swear you could hear the ghosts of supporters past

 

[maccavennie]

Look at the stadium emoji they've used in the tweet MG, he's basically just robbed his Roma idea and lobbed multi coloured flags on top.

Crap that innit

I think I will cry for a week if/when we leave GP. I get @davek and his reservations but as we approach this crucial next phase on Thursday my prédominant feeling is:
Please, please, please .....x 100 don’t f£&£ this up Everton!!!

It's a nice line about dockers; but the reality was that when the club was founded the last thing dockers were arsed about was walking two miles and spending cash they couldn't afford on a game of footy played by a load of Scottish mercenaries.

The early supporters would have been artisan workers, immediate to the ground (Anfield or Goodison) and with a bit of surplus spending power.

That's the spirit, Dave lol

Thanks. I know it has been hinted at but didn't realise it was made explicit.

I'm certain people asked about boxing/concerts/etc at the initial Meis meetings and they were positive about it but reaffirmed it was footy first

As always, hats off to the media team, they are always on point with this type of stuff.

If that vid doesn’t hit you right in the feels, you are dead inside.

It's a video mate. Planning Permission + £600M = a stadium on that dock, not, as @summerisle quips, 'Hovis adverts'.

Why not? You made the connection yourself. They both involve a lot of bread.

You wouldn’t...you’d get a mortgage, trust your own ability to make money and make your capital work for you instead of worrying about the low interest rate on your repayments.
