New Everton Stadium

Probably food or drink outlets. Have them at a lot of newer grounds now.

Storage/shipping containers though, at a brand spanking new stadium? Feels odd to me.

Hopefully they'll convert them to the away dressing room.

The oddest thought can occur at times.

But is the club shop staying where it is?

You would be surprised!! West Hams stadium has them all around the outside and even has a fence panel as a gate inside!

Away dressing rooms would be good.. with a special one suspended over the river when them lot play here...

I would suspect not. I seem to remember that being part of these plans. Would be a waste of money leaving them at Goodison?

Ever since they had to replace Christchurch city centre with shipping containers after the 2011 quake, they've become a 'thing'.

I quite like them. Easy enough to shift when they're no longer trendy.

Would make zero sense. Cant recall it being mentioned even.

Just baffles me this it really does... another delay because the council now want a consultation, despite the fact Everton wasted months and months doing not 1 but 2 consultations

Short version:

Car park gone
Hight reduced slightly (same capacity)
Archie Leitch crosses more prominent
Another public consultation needed
Work starts Q1 2021

'Finalising our funding packages' - hmmm.

Pretty much standard procedure on any project this size. No biggy in the grand scheme of things.

 

[MrGrumpy]

Then we had Dan Mies day.. you have the designs in a few months, which turned in to 15 months for them to just come out and say, yeah we changed the design and here it is

The Esk = davek ?

If we hadn’t wasted 6 months doing pointless consulting, an let’s be honest it was. The thing would of being built by now

 

[MrGrumpy]

This isn’t getting build, I’ve never believed that till now but that’s what I think

 

[NathDogg]

I think they've done a great job on the amends to the designs, especially getting shut of the car park by the river.

For me, if they build it like the drawings it will completely fit in with the current waterfront and look like it has always been there, if you know wharra mean. It's beautiful.

Just need to get on and do the building bit now Blues, just make it happen.
