New Everton Stadium

Ideally you could gut each stand from behind and keep the old lady the same toward the pitch, but that wouldn't fix the terrible line of sight issues from too many seats.
Hoping the steepness and tightness of BMD can help hold the atmosphere. The fans are mad too, which helps a lot.
I honestly believe the new place could be a bear pit like Goodison. I think Meis did a good job.

I think he's done the best possible under modern stadium build constraints

Thank you

Enjoy guys

There’s more of a contrast between the roof and the barrel cladding than I was expecting.
Thought it was a more uniform silver(ish) finish.

Wait all those years for a new waterfront stadium and it ends up being the final nail in our coffin.

File under the same heading as waiting all that time for a billionaire owner and he ends up being the one that digs the grave.

We couldn’t afford it.
We can’t afford it .
And we won’t be able to afford it.
Apart from that it looks good .

Unless you’re flying over in a plane or you get a drone to look up there you won’t see it anyway and the materials used on the barrel section will be much more expensive than the roof… looks smart to me.

We could afford it, but then Putin invaded Ukraine and Moshiri hadn’t bothered to find proper finance in time so we are now here.

Usmanov could afford it .
Everton couldn’t .

Think it would have been better if the would have had more of a darker silver roof covering to match up with the barrell cladding.

Can’t say the contrast bothers me at all.

But for those it does: you can’t see it from ground level - and we’re so seldom going to see it from the air, except on TV on a weekend Sky fixture.

No big deal.

Get it from the ground but would have looked more impressive when showing it off to the world from the air.

Might just have to wait a bit, could be that with a bit of weathering the effect will be different.

Any updates on the estimated completion date? Just trying to fume over how long we’re going to leave a billion £ asset sitting there before the new season.
