New Everton Stadium

All joking aside, I honestly cannot see us affording any stadium which is of note, unless some form of catalyst occurs in our fortunes.

A stadium outside of the city boundaries would be the cheapest option, but as per the whole Kirby affair I doubt that would be accepted.

A stadium inside the city boundaries is what we would all prefer. Nevertheless, it would clearly contribute to a higher price through land costs.

Then there is the whole question of suitability of the actual stadium. Top notch stadium costs top notch prices, something we'd struggle to afford.

Cheap alternative will not go down well with the fans, and may effect revenue capability through corporate facilities.

I would love a new stadium which fits our need and stature, however in our current situation it is not a likely outcome.

If it does somehow begin to become some form or reality, there is all the problems as above mentioned.

So until I see building commence I am just going to undertake a jovial ignorance about the whole saga.

Juventus' ground is fantastic and cost £90m.
 
Yeah wasn't that what went wrong at Newcastle? Mike Ashley went looking for someone to name St J's Park and then when nobody made a decent offer he put his own company on there to save face?

What you're saying makes sense then.
Ashley had to dump Wonga because of the outcry against pay day loan companies, and couldn't find anyone else, so named it Sports Direct.9his company)

Wrong.

It was named Sports Direct Arena BEFORE, 11 months BEFORE, Wonga arrived on the scene.

Indeed it was on Wongas [PR] direction when they became their sponsors that it was changed BACK to St James Park.

Also the new stands up there were overseen/designed by a man heavily involved in KEIOCs campaign against the Kirkby Shed. He is a ST holder at GP to boot.
 
You say that like its a fact ,instead of your individual opinion.

It is actually a fact that we didn't get the Kings Dock stadium. Unless we've been collectively hallucinating the last ten years. Where do you think Everton currently play at mate ?

Kenwright had the vision but as we know not the money to make the dock a reality.

Leaving aside the ringfenced lies to fans, media and project partners.....why didn't he borrow, issue loan capital etc like other businesses would do to fund an exceptional business offer ?

Look at where Kenwright has taken us with very little money since the Peter Johnson Era. Its hard to argue its not progressed.

He's provided the managers with sub adequate funding for players....the manager's abilities have kept us top 6 etc, not Kenwright. Financially this club is a disgrace for where it could and should be in the context of record TV money coming in which has sweet FA to do with this complete retard.
 

OK got it now. Cheers.



Then this bit...so the Everton fan who designed that thought the Kirkby design was rubbish then?

Aye.

You cant even compare the Kirkby Shed without its corners and batman lights to their newish stand.

Was he also the man behind keiocs great white elephant the infamous 'loop site' ? Find it a tad strange that this counter proposal hasn't resurfaced along with the tired old buzz phrases associated with the kirkby stadium plan. 'Kirkby shed' being a prime example.
