New Everton Stadium

[Tom Hughes]

The choice of staying or moving mid season, to me let's get gone and moved.
Yes Goodison has been great in the past but so as my ford escort, when there is a new Mercedes waiting for me let's use it

It seems to have become a bit of a contentious issue on some forums. I always assumed that we'd just move in at the first opportunity regardless. Some arguing that it might feel like an away ground for us to start with.... and if we're still fighting relegation, would that be an issue.... etc?

Apparently Radio merseyside is covering it tonight. 18:20 ish. I think one of this parish may also be speaking on it.

They can't, the two smaller stands are over a metro and listed buildings.

Then again blood vile money from Saudis will probably sort that.

I’m sure the Gallowgate has room to expand behind it.

 

[matty1878]

so which of the stands

will be like what we have now?

 

[Tom Hughes]

I’m sure the Gallowgate has room to expand behind it.

It is and the club have just re-acquired the land too.

Trevor Skempton was the city architect there years ago and did a study to show how the small side could be expanded slightly to form an atrium over the Leazes terrace. With their limitless wealth, maybe that will be revisited too.

Thats the first time I've seen a pic and thought "yeah, thats starting to look like the renders we've seen".

Great pic

For me it was the recent video from Everton that matched an early video before the build even started where it showed the stadium behind the dockers clock. It was one of the first amazing visuals taking in the surroundings that I first thought this is going to be alright you know.

That's my favourite CGI video of the ground. I've only ever seen that 20 second clip though. I'm quite sure they would have done a longer version but no idea why it hasn't been released.

He might as well start living there, he's been there every day this week lol

All these vids are great, but until you get down there in person you will not really appreciate it. It’s superb

Meis quite clearly needs to come into this thread for an education from our resident stadium acousticians and stadium design experts pfft.

@Tom Hughes will set him straight.

All that work done and it's still not ready for the 24/25 season...Everton that.

I'm not sure there is, although you would have thought the model used would have allowed a complete 360 of the site.

He is trying to get one of the West stand roof lifts so he said he'll be there every day.

What if we’re in the Premier League in 24/25 and then get relegated though?

Tbh I'm worried that our squad next season will be even worse than last year so I'm very fearful that it's going to be even more difficult to stay in the PL for 24/5

Anyone know if the underside of the roof is also clad or is all the steel exposed from below? I assumed the latter but thinking about Meis comments about how close the roof is I’m not so sure now. An open roof must be 15m+ (guessing) until the top cladding to ‘contain’ the sound, if it’s clad on the underside too it would be much closer I’d assume.
