New Everton Stadium

[Onwards Evertonians]

The stadium will play a key role in supporting our commercial vision for the Club – hosting events and activities all-year round -

Love this.

Stayed at The Titanic last night. Not a bad view.

Answered the question I had about whether they leave the lights on overnight - and they do!

They came on at about 3:20 yesterday evening and were off by about 8:20 this morning.

It also looked like all the TVs were on in the south and east concourses… not sure if that was because of yesterday’s events or if they always do that?

I know we’ve got the old solar panels up there, but we could maybe scale back a bit on the old hit to the leccy bill.

Been posting on here years telling people why it wasn’t feasible to get the keys in December and start playing games in January

Glad that’s finally wrapped up

I think the message was always that it was going to be completed in March kind of time, not quite long enough before the end of the season to warrant upheaval of moving in mid season. It means there is no time pressure to get things done and cut corners.

Was the hand over actually shown anywhere on any media streams. I haven't seen anything. All a bit underwhelming if I'm honest. Still it's a great stadium and hopefully a bright royal blue future.

Folks can try and dunk on Dave all they want, but Everton have dropped the use of BMD when it relates to calling the stadium that. That’s been the case for quite some time.

As they have done for a while; they say it’s the Everton stadium on Bramley-Moore Dock or new Everton Stadium Project

Referring to the stadium as BMD is long dead. Referring to the location of the dock by its name is not.

That’s not hard to grasp.

That’s true. So the club haven’t dropped the name like a hot potato then have they.

I’m just waiting to see people’s reactions in the new year when it’s revealed that a bronze statue of him from when he was elected mayor in 1848 has been commissioned, and will be housed on one of those two blue brick plinths on the East stand. Will cause some issues with some I would imagine. I would have preferred Leon Osman myself.

Might interest some.

That's a big brick middle finger, right?

Stunning

Some amount of development land around that stadium too. Wonder have the Friedkins noticed that.

Nice! But what we really want to know is did you wake up to the warm embrace of @matty1878 spooning you?

There was a face pressed against the window, tapping away with a car key… but I just drew the curtains and tried to forget about it…

Would have been nice to get some of the legends there to walk around the ground.

The handover was a formal one, mainly done in the offices, with the site then locked up for Christmas and New Year.

Laing are back in a week or two, and then there'll be the full-scale media handover malarkey, while the final fitting out and training takes place.

hopefully they'll knock that old thing down as it's obstructing the view
