New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[Billefc]

The capacity just feels like where going 2 strps forward and 1 step back all over again. By the time its finished 6 teams will already have bigger grounds, maybe even 8 if Chelsea and Wolves press ahead with there plans, the sh!te will probably be beyond 60k by then with there Angield road plans.

Just hope that the 62k figure there quoting in regards to expansion, is actual designed extension of tiers or added tiers.. as safe standing won't go anywhere near that figure.

100% agree with everything you have said here!

Just completed the survey and suggested a minimum of 55,000.

Absolute bare minimum, stadium looks amazing but can't we just act like a big club for once, we will fill 60k!

Commercial revenue from the stadium will be key. I hope they have large bars in each stand that attract fans from 12 for a 3pm kick off. I had suggested bars that could be accessed from outside the stadium like Shearer's at St James Park. Non-football income will also be key. Concerts in the stadium and in the fan park! All ££££ that can go to Cuco Martina's 10 year deal that he is about to sign!

I don't think we should encourage under age drinking mate.

Capacity seems right for where we are right now. It has the scope to go bigger with ease providing regs change so I wouldn’t stress too much.

Last thing we want is to be playing in a stadium with 5-10k empty seats every week. Being brutally honest after the novelty of year 1 and 2 in there wears off (unless we are winning leagues) there’s no chance we get 55’000+ every week.

Anyone arsed about the fan zone being a massive playground?

Was hoping to have it as a building or at least sheltered like.

Love the design. Theres no new ground in England that looks anything like it. The brickwork will look stunning and fit in perfectly with the surroundings.

Now why didn't anybody think of this ?

I'd imagine there'd be food/pop up tat stalls on there and a fan stage like there is at GP

Well no chance chance of me standing out there to be honest. It'll be freezing. Hopefully the concourse is decent or more pubs built near by.

What was the "first"?

Someone said the stadium would be another first.
