New Everton Stadium

[Grinch]

Before we say goodbye.

I was so happy to make the trip to see this beauty during December! I wouldnt be able to live with myself if I missed the chance before BMD is up and running

 

[H.H.]

We’re going to have the best stadium in the league. That is all.

We all like to think we have the prettiest wife at home ;-)

I'd say there are probably, what 100-120? games left? The new gaff has got a lot to live up to.

I know we need a new stadium but God I will miss The Old Lady

Nowhere near that. Only 19 home league games a year, 3 years till BMD is open. Throw in maybe 2-3 cup games per year.... The end is pretty close now.

The city is desperate for investment mate, especially the North of the city. The city is awash with stalled and failed schemes from dodgy developers.

They'll be all over this and have been on board since day one. They seemed to have had everything lined up before submitting a planning app with consultations. The consultations aimed at ensuring everyone has had an opportunity to have their say before planning.

Walk past that deserted building site by China town (whatever happened to that?) and it's embarrassing.

Been using my free time walking along the docks every day and never really appreciated how nice it is when it's hot.

It's a shame it's a car park on the river side, being able to have a beer garden their during the latter ends of the season and pre season friendlies or events would be amazing, but I can understand why they opted for the ground level car park.

Hope they have some sort of bars that take advantage of the river views, which I'm sure some external companies will in the neighbouring docks towards the city, as the current fan plaza takes no advantage of that meaning the match day experience could have been the same anywhere in the city.

I was lucky enough to go to a museum in Stockholm last year. It has a really good bar on the top floor, about 3/4 storeys up. Absolutely stunning views of the waterfront and city... admittedly prettier than Birkenhead!! The more views drinking holes can provide of the river the more customers they will get I think. So long as not too cold and windy.

Im guessing the current river view facility at Bramley Moore will be top level corporate.

Maybe open on none match days.

Also, I’m sure the north stand concourse will give a good view of the city and river.

Yeah, I guess so. But anyone who can provide an elevated view AND decent food and drink could be onto a good thing. Not just the club who will probably focus on their corporate section.

I think we'll be lucky if Bmd is completed exactly on time, even without corona projects like this always seem to overrun there original time, couldn't see it being any longer than an extra season though

Investment stimulates investment. The ground will attract other businesses and people to the area. New road access will make it easier to get to and from. Better services will make it feel safer and both hard and soft landscaping will make the area more attractive. This is the essence of regeneration.

The one backed by George Osborne when the president came to the UK?

Wasn't it dodgy gangster developers who had everyone's deposits off and went into administration, very embarrassing. Then you have Elliott with a case against him leaving behind a few building sites.

Osborne advocated a development in China Town?

I think this stadium is probably the most important project that the city currently has planned. It is in everyone’s interest that this stadium happens.
