New Everton Stadium

You could make it close to 60k by just not having the drop in the North stand as shown below, the south stand goes across all at the same height, no idea why they`ve done that.... That wouldnt affect intimacy etc.

There was no space to go that far back in the North stand upper tier mate. That's why there's a drop. It's literally right up against the water plant (we've actually borrowed some of their land whilst we build the stadium)
 
I wish I could go back in time and not even see the plans for the stadium, nevermind watching weekly updates from drones and pictures. Imagine how good it would have been just turning up to watch a game, not even seeing a single image of it or knowing anything about it. Would have been like the first time any of us stepped foot in Goodison, that magic.
 

A few pages ago we were talking about Sandhills Station . I found this on the stadium website. Seems to suggest that EFC will fund the upgrade.

<< In readiness for an increase in numbers, the Club is set to upgrade facilities at nearby Sandhills train station, following a fan survey held back in 2018 which suggested that 60% of fans wanted to use public transport. >>

It still will be.
 
That latest updates are really starting to give the wow factor. Really starting to progress now. Really pleased that the design (Meiss) has been able to get the stands as close to the pitch perimeter as you can go with new build regs and that we haven’t gone for the curved back of the stands that you see at a lot of new grounds.
 
It still will be.
This!

That moment you first step in the stadium, whether you have seen plans or watched it being built will take me back to the first match I remember and walking up to Goodison being awestruck and then going through the turnstile, the walk up the steps to the Main Stand, christ knows why my Dad took me in there?? and seeing what was before me was a thing of sheer amazement. the noises, the smells, the feeling in my stomach the roars, the music the players coming out etc etc etc!

It will be freaking awesome, I almost guarantee it.

That first "real" match for me was Everton Leicester 1973, finished 1-1. Was 5 years old, that memory will last until they put me in the ground!

As far as I am aware it isn't being upgraded at all but getting 'coralling' mesaures put in place.
