New Everton Stadium

[Pudsey]

Anfield was considered a failure for this due to the lack of things to do around the ground. Newcastle being in the centre was much more favourable.

I was more worried about the infestation of the one-eyed rugby league zealots. They bring a whole new level to the term 'purist'.

Perhaps there is scope for the development of a marina.

Transportation, by local transport is surely going to be easier than getting to Goodison ever was in this location, mind you I now have little knowledge since the 1980 s?

I’ll take a shot in the dark here and say Everton are building a new stadium lol

We know that is happening give yourself a pat on the back, my you've earned it.

Easiest it ever was to get to GP was up to bus deregulation in 1986. Before then there were special buses from all over. Plenty to do to ensure BMD is well served by public transport.

As much as it hurts me, for once I have to agree with you.....before you get carried away I won’t make a habit of this....

Looking at that and the plans online there is quite a lot of unused roof space on the top floor where the current glass section is. Hopefully available for hospitatlity expansion if required

you planning a big party?

Having read the transport part of the planning docs which Mick A put me on to, I am much happier about this aspect of things. Shuttle buses to Bootle is a big plus for people in L20, L21, L22, L23 (big Everton supporting areas) and won't do the pubs any harm before and after, I expect. Up to 15,000 can be moved by taxi. We are blessed with a lot of black cabs.

Not exactly stadium related, but just seen on The Twitters that Dan Meis chucked £1000 into the SpeedoMick fundraiser, so fair play.

We are unfortunately not going to get that. It would have been good if they could have pushed that little bit more though. They could have for instance tried to make the 13k home end (which may have already increased a bit with the new capacity of 52,882) to get above the 14,263 that the Stratford end holds. Not a huge mountain to climb and then we would have had the second largest home end in the country after Spurs.

With the extra rows required along the East and West stands to meet the larger north end we'd be looking at somewhere around a 56,800 capacity and I think we all would have gone fair enough and be content with our lot.
