New Everton Stadium

[gwladysnight]

I can't think of any new stadiums with old school tiers, I assume it's an engineering or a safety thing? Can anyone enlighten me? All of my favourite stadia have overhanging tiers makes you feel much closer to the action and they seem much noisier.

Cantilever stands require a lot more steel and provide less inside space for hospitality. So the stand costs more to build but generates less income.

I assumed it would be something like that, cheers.

I had a look on RAWK and they seem to think we couldn’t afford it or fill it, not knowing we’re funded by one of the richest men on the planet.

They're kinda wrong on a lot of stuff over there, tbf.

How far up their arse and how clueless they are about it as well is quite hilarious.

It's why I take a peek now and then. Great comedy, all done so sincerely.

Good to see the building work starting but would have accepted a slight delay to get up to 62000 now UNESCO arent holding us back.

It's laughable. Our backers could buy out their owners over lunch if they wanted and use our old home for the ladies team to play.

So we have a mega rich board, have basically sold out for every home prem game for years and have a waiting list for season tickets that would comfortably fill the new ground if the were all allowed to buy one, so were do the get this bollocks from

Jealousy and bitterness mate.

Cant wait until this beauty is built even if we never have success on the pitch they'll always be gutted us having a world class modern stadium on the docks with hopefully hospitality, retail and hotels etc being built around it.

Is this the start of the build then? Trust the club to announce it when an unpopular appointment is being readied. A cynic would suggest they knew the stadium start date was today so they've waited a week to calm the fans.

Hopefully the fish issue has resolved and they can crack on over the summer now. Still on schedule hopefully for the start of 2024/25.

You can feel the pain in them already and it isn't even built yet. I almost feel sorry for them.

NEVER feel sorry for the RS mate.
