New Everton Stadium

You on spot on. It’s mad that you called it an arena because that’s what I thought last night sitting there and just taking it all in.
The layout and the steepness make it feel like a huge indoor arena.
The first thing I did was FaceTime my dad as he couldn’t make it due to a family emergency. I just got emotional and the first thought to my head was we are back and the rest of the league need to be worried. Now that could be complete nonsense, but was just in awe of what we will call home.

Sorry your dad missed it mate, I felt so privileged to be there with my children. Good thing is we will all be in there soon.

I wish my pop could have been here, we dreamed about our new home for years and I’m gutted he never got to see it happen.

It’s defo an arena, the closeness to the pitch and the steep stands, the roof trapping the noise and pushing it back down to the pitch - it’s gonna be gladiatorial, that’s also what came to mind - I don’t think any visitors are gonna enjoy playing there when we’re in full voice.
