New Everton Stadium

[Del-boy]

Always wondered. Will it just get half done if we're relegated like? As in just a gigantic piece of modern art until we get back in the PL to finish it?

Happened at Valencia. Half build stadium just sat there. Think they ran out of cash though as opposed to relegation.

Might seem like a mad question, but how much of the build timescale are LOR there for? What I mean is, will they be doing everything up to fitting the last bulb, or will there become a point down the line when their job is done but there's still, say, 6 months of work to be done?

Might have missed some detail some where but iirc it’s a ‘lump sum fixed price’ build so LOR will deliver the construction to ‘Cat B’ finish / RIBA stage 6. EFC may have a 3rd party come in for fixtures, furniture & everything else, but it should be a turn key functioning stadium when LOR handover AFAIAa

Why do we need a bigger and better stadium when we are so painfully ? , try filling that in the Championship!

Sunderland and Man City both got more than 40,000 in the championship, and the 2nd division. I'm sure we would also sell a lot of tickets.

Yep, the Away end would fill just for the novelty of seeing a new stadium, doubt I will get to see in now in my lifetime unless a cup draw ? ?

Great pics Tommye, thanks! I was there only three weeks ago and it’s changed massively just in that short time!

Seen this picture on Twitter today.

Those unable to visualise the sheer scale of the place will get a good sense seeing the lorry parked next to the new South stand.

Ahhh this is gonna be absolutely majestic init

I'm genuinely excited seeing this moving on to the next stage. Absolutely buzzing. ?

I cant get enthused about a new stadium when the playing side of this club is on its arse... Some will see it the other way...

Thinking like that is exactly why we are in this mess. We don't move with the times we get left behind, one way to not let that happen is to build a world famous stadium on the docks. Make us as attractive as possible to the next sovereign state/ineos founder that wants to buy a football club.

The steepness of that on the right hand side. Some people don't even have ladders or roofs that steep.

Looks more like the support steelwork for the glazing on the North Stand. They're not ready to lift the main trusses in yet.
