New Everton Stadium

Just imagine if that had gone forward. We would be sitting of with some Arab Oil tycoon buying us boss players now.


Not that it matters but i strongly believe that if we had the kings dock stadium that the owners of city would of took over instead of waiting for the commonwealth stadium to be converted.
 
So you would be happy to see the club playing in a cowshed (because that’s what it will be for 100-150m) and pay of a cowshed debt till 2028? How about we find new owners who know how to successfully deliver infrastructure projects and can deliver a new ground that the team will be proud to play in and be watched by the fans for the next 100 years.

or should we just play it cheap and help the owners to increase their shareholder value and allow them to disappear into the horizon once they have sold us off and left us to play a no mark flat pack ground.
Juventus did built their great stadium for £100M, Bilbao for £120M. These are great stadiums and I don't really know, why you would not want a similar stadium like they have. New owners are not happening, and I want the best for this club. NSNO.
 

No offence mate but you are not getting a new ground for £150 million, Liverpool are paying £100 million for an extension to an already existing stand.
Kirkby price was around £80M mate and Juventus and Bilbao's new great stadiums were only a little more expensive. I believe we can have a really great stadium for £150M, an arena like King's Dock one should be possible and I believe we would be all proud of that...

And no season ticket selling tactic... who would buy a ticket because a new stadium could be a reality in a few seasons... I am not the biggest fan of Kenwright and co but lets keep the discussion realistic. If nothing else, I fully believe we did not have money to build a new stadium before that new TV deal.
 
We should all club together and buy a box at the new stadium.

A GOT box, that would be boss.

How much does a box cost for a season, circa £100,000?

There's 22000 GOT members, if we all paid £5 into a PayPal account, we'd have roughly enough for one season's rent! Then we could hold a random draw before every home game, a lucky 10 people get to sit in the GOT box for the home game that week.
Wow...
 

Build it on reclaimed land in the Mersey, with docks so that our cartel, sorry board, can dock on matchdays.

We all want what is best for the club but not at the cost of lumbering the club with more debt and loans becuase the present owners have no intention of funding anything or selling this club without a massive mark up. Who in their right mind who want to give the 3 stooges a third crack at an infrastructure project when they could,nt get a badge design right !

I would wait for the dog and pony show to see how much detail is delivered and then closely look at the funding to support any project.

Moving to a new stadium has to make financial sense.

£100m might sound cheap but it is £100m we don't have.

For it to make economic sense we need to generate £100m in either additional sales or savings over Goodison Park over the lifetime of the project.

£100m is likely to cost around £7m per year in borrowing costs.

Goodison currently generates circa £20m so a new stadium would have to a 50% rise in gate receipts to reach break even point on the borrowing costs alone (effectively we'd have to increase crowds and box use at the same time as increasing prices)

A football only stadium in somewhere like Walton Hall Park would be an economic disaster for the club. Any new stadium project needs to be in the city/docks and be used every day of the year.
 
Yes, firstly because the board won't put in the money to fund it and second because a club with planning permission for a new stadium would be a more attractive buy.

I don,t see it, they would maxmise shareholder value with a ground in place at point of sale. We will end up with low cost cheap **** ground proposal with a shed load of debt on the back of it.
