New Everton Stadium

[Dr Baxter]

Just a thought that occurred to me, but does every Evertonian deserve the new stadium? I don't mean its dependent on attendance or anything like that, but there are certain individuals who have done nothing but pour cold water on the whole project since the start. You know the ones, we should have stayed at Goodison and redeveloped, BMD won't get through planning, they've run out of money, it's too big/too small, transport issues, season ticket distribution is unfair, there aren't enough entrances, it will stink from the plant next door etc etc. I know some healthy debate is needed but I honestly know some people who literally have complained and moaned about EVERYTHING. I don't care how good a supporter these people are, just do us a favour and stay away. Rant over.

You forgot the blue spotlights aren’t diffused enough

This is the initial West Stand design up against the Main Stand at Goodison... I can't remember the height difference between this and what we're getting but I know posters like @The binman chronicles have their finger on the pulse of details like that.

That's the current design above, there is an overlay showing how tall the back row would have been in the 60k variant:

Thanks! I did start second-guessing myself about that - but knew you'd be round to set the record straight if I held on!

No, that's how tall it would have been if we had a 60k capacity instead of 53k.

I'd just ignore them mate, they've probably never even seen it. Transport links make it too hard to get there
