New Everton Stadium

[tommye]

The way I see it is if we just let Dave keep on being Dave then by the time we actually play a meaningful game at, ahem, BRAMLEY MOORE, then we'll have had a moan about everything else that could possibly be moaned about so we can fully focus on the absolute dross embarrassing themselves in Royal blue.

Great strat Dave.
Big Fan ?

Thoroughly enjoying your random angles of attack.
Keep up the good work. x

I have a bamanced view on the stadium: I see it's plusses and I see it's drawbacks in design.

That's the only possible way to view this project - unless you slavishly follow the line that Meis got everything right.

Am I missing something? What exactly is that ?

It's this close up....

It looks cheap and it's incongruous to me that the reference to an engineer who worked for scores of other clubs is stamped all over our brand new stadium.

so you're not happy with the windmills, the fact that nelsons dock could be filled in, the street access and now the aesthetic design?
Christ.

Please don't mention religion...

haha, missed that..

haha, missed that..

I think i need the religious take in order to form a bamanced opinion.

 

[Mrtallywacker]

Please don't mention religion...

Absolutely my son, its my job to bore everyone with that.

God bless.

From that distance you cant see that the truss pattern doesn't extend across the metal panels.

It's a dog's breakfast of a facade.

Talk of spoiling the ship for a ha'porth of tar.

World class location; reasonable futuristic design (if not mind-blowing); all spoilt by an appalling facade brickwork and bizarre backward looking design to an engineer who isn't principally associated with the club in any case.

I've said before: Meis was let loose way too much; he's a dilettante and someoe who was desperate to get the gig and threw in that in order to curry favour with the tragical history tour set...who are really really not representative of this club's fanbase.

It's an appalling own goal and we can only hope over time the pattern will be obscured when weather-beaten.

£500M.
