New Everton Stadium

Oh there is. Was down there today (on regent road) and it was pretty strong, it was rather vile in all honesty

Wouldn't this be a legit cause for concern?

I wouldn't have a clue as I'm not sure if the smell is a constant or when they run a process at the site. Today was the only day I've smelt anything though and I've been around the collingwood dock area a few times over the last couple of weeks

Fairly sure I read somewhere that nearly every football stadium is orientated north to south. This is to keep the sun out of the goalkeeper's eyes. if this is true, expect the stadium to be parallel with the river, not at right angles.

Sun? Not likely to be an issue in Liverpool.

Where has this come from? Looks interesting!!

Look at the scale.......a stadium that size would at most seat around 25K.......definitely not interesting.

Laughing at you lot thinking this will happen after whats happened over the last couple of months

I've heard Moshiri is a family man and doesn't want to turn his back on Goodison

Who told you that, Jim White in a text?

Anyone who believes that a reclusive non-limelight seeking billionaire who doesn't do interviews is texting some no-mark Scottish tv presenter who he's probably not even met is out of their minds.

I'd rather stay in goodison than have a corporate mess of a stadium like Emirates.

Atmosphere wins games, we should really try push for standing section, if we are after a new stadium. People would be fighting to get a ticket and it would be bouncing.

There will never be a standing section in a stadium in this city.

The will eventually, it's not in sensitive either safe standing says what it is on the tin, nobody's hardly going to protest are they mate.

I hope he buys the land and builds an Aldi on it, and puts up a big banner which says "swivel bedwetters"

 

[Rudolf Hucker]

Also pretty sure the Gwladys st gets belted with sun

It does!

The RS will protest mate, then the same people will go and stand up every week home and away.

Double post

I'm not sure anyone would protest about safe standing areas. The issue with the old terraces was thousands of people crammed into large pens that could get out of control. Safe standing areas are nothing like that and are as controlled as seating

I linked a story in this thread about how much was spent by another utility company to stop this from happening around around the Twickenham rugby stadium.....it cost near to 150m for covers and tanks...tec.

I know this will sound negative but as soon as this rumour of the BM dock surfaced it sounded like Peel reluctantly sold us the last the plot on the front next to the turd factory.

Exactly. I'm not entirely sure what's stopping them introducing it now.

In an ideal world you build your Main Stand to the west so that come 3PM on a Sat most people are not blinded by the sun. With the plethora of KO times now it's not as important. It's why early KO at Goodison are poor for sunlight being in the fans eyes as it was never designed for them.
