New Everton Stadium

[Frenk]

I've been looking around London's Premier League stadiums over the past few months. Chelsea looks like a hotel conference centre complex. West Ham is tacky as hell (was that really an Olympic stadium?). Arsenal is decent and I have to say Spurs at least from the outside is the most impressive. Think BMD would slot in at third place. But then I only saw the outside on a dreary rainy late September day.

To be honest I prefer BMD over Spurs stadium, looks more like a traditional football stadium and the setting it is in right next to the water just exemplifies it even more.

Try approaching it by foot from Bankfield St/Dock Road and give us your opinion then.

It's all a pretty trivial detail tbh, but would like to see what it would look like with the barrel roof lit up in white flood light, to get all of that curved metallic reflection at night time. Perhaps with blue light on the end glass walls and other glazed areas. It does look a lot like a gas hob at present. Perhaps blue strip lights as opposed to spotlights might give a better effect.

Yeah. I think the windows could have blue light pulsing out of them

Decent tune but as much as I’m up for the opportunity of a fresh start at the club I can’t see the link to Everton.

I'd seriously considering legged Z Cars and Grand old team,the song of course.

Complete fresh start.

I'm really enjoying the SpongeBob Squarepants theme song at the moment, maybe we could go with that.

i am timing a flight over for the opening if i can some how get a ticket but travelling from America - life long toffee and dont think ill ever get to see Goodison. how are they going to bottle up that feeling? what are we hoping to see in the new concourses, will be a totally different experience. so excited to see it

Friedkins “very keen” to expand BMD, I’m reliably informed.

No idea if they’ve looked at costings etc so I’m not saying they have decided too.

They are very keen on expansion, though.

I believe @maccavennie is you man for such details, he's counted every seat, in every section, in every stand.

And for a small price of £17.99 pm on my parreon channel "maccasmarvellousseatcountingconundrum" I'm more than happy to reveal all!!!

This is last week’s news bud. The Esk has written an article about it and tried to mansplain stadium design to the guy who actually designed the stadium.

Great popcorn viewing.

I know the wall is part of the city's heritage and I'm happy it's protected,but it does diminish the size of BM from street level. Tottenham seen from the street is impressive,then I'd have to say that living on the Harrigayy ladder.
