New Everton Stadium

I always thought the lighting would be something like this.

If an MLS stadium costing a third of our stadium can have that you wonder wtf was in the heads of those sanctioning the gas hob effect we have.

We definitely should have gone for something similar in terms of the lighting.

Honestly @davek is there anything you like about the club, you are one of the most glass halve empty people I have ever come across

Have to hope it can and will be addressed.
The current effort isn't near to being worthy of the stadium as a whole.

He's got a point here though

Nobody even knows if it’s the finished article, can we not just be grateful that it’s actually been built for now and worry about the lighting later, FFS we haven’t even used it yet

The lighting is - at worst - the type of thing you say 'not what I would have done' about. All the cryarsing about it is properly bonkers.

Starved of attention as a child so is making up for it now.

I doubt they can rectify it without great expense. The Allianz Arena has thousands of LEDs behind their clear cladding, whereas ours is constructed of metal which obviously LEDs can't shine through. I'm disappointed with the lighting, alongside it being too small and seemingly difficult to expand in the future. Apart from that though I'm generally delighted with the ground, specifically the location, appearance and what it represents and will generate for the club in terms of finances.

I would assume there are plans to fix the lights.

Something along those lines would look good.

Considering this is the area we are located in and the type of weather we will have, I feel what we have is sufficient.

He just said it looks a bit rubbish. Compared to the rest of the stadium which is boss, in parts spectacular, its a bit underwhelming. Nothing wrong with having an opinion on a football forum when it's a legitimate one. If he was going on about wind turbines or walls I'd agree with you......
