New Everton Stadium

[Noggsy blue]

One more season with Stake

 

[Double Negative]

The Chase Stadium.

25% possession at home.

Sounds about right.

Didn’t The Beatles play there?

One thing I would say is BMD is looking like a really elegant stadium combining 'old' with new in a well-designed, sleek way. It's coming along beautifully.

Whilst Zenit's stadium is the fugliest stadium built this century with horrifically overblown architecture and laughably tacky faux-classical entrances just to add to the awfulness.

I think I remember seeing this first in Close encounters of the Third kind.

I know it’s not like the Riverside!

The point I’m making is that the comparison pic meant to disprove the comparison did the opposite - at least to my eyes.

I’m not into judging empty stadia, they all look dull and all they ever do is make you wish you were watching something there with tens of thousands of others.

Football stadiums, particularly ones built in the last 30 odd years do look samey inside. They're not like theatres built in different centuries or cinemas build in different decades of the 20th century, for example.

That's down to regulations about gradients, sightlines though.

Thought it was a missed opportunity not putting fountains like that hotel in Vegas in the water channel. On a cold winter's night we could have held 'Disney on Spice' or something.

Got to wonder what Levy is holding out for at Spurs.
They've missed what, 3 years of naming rights in London?
They've probably missed out on 40 mil.

I do think that theres caveats with the stadium though, every cruiseliner into the docks will see it, its on a highly photographed waterfront.

If it was JUST the sports, I get it, we arent in Europe or on the telly as much as others - however, there is more to it then just sports for us.

£10m 10 year deal, for the stadium alone is £100m more in the bank then we had so I can live with.

I imagine with Stake going though itll be much more and a combined deal.

I think with the additional changing rooms on the original floor plans shows it will be used for much more. Whether that's concerts with multiple bands/singers or tournaments?

If you squint enough, most stadiums have a slight resemblance to one another.

I wasn't squinting that was problem lol

 

[PhilRegan]

If you mean in the sense that they've both got plastic seats and a football pitch inside then I'd wholeheartedly agree...other than that they're completely different.

No doubt Levy will put his oar in if he thinks ours is excessive.

Meiss is being a bit of an attention seeker.

It'll probably say 'Should've Used My Roof Design'.

I’ll pay for the banner if it’s going to be

‘Arne Slot collects barnyard pornography’

I'd say he could get a discount if Friedkin flys the plane!

Goldman Sachs Bramley Moore.

Sounds like a law firm. That'll do.

Slip, Trump or fall? Penalty to the RS!
