New Everton Stadium

[Thuck ma Baws]

He's built two/three stadiums with roofs, including Safeco Field which looks fantastic:

Got a bit of Leitch about the design here. I'd be all over that.

Perfect birthday present for yours truly

I think we can if the price is good, for many its not so much the view that puts them off going to Goodison but they simply cant afford it.

Definitely this. Had a quick look yesterday at the Palace game, £36-£41 and all that was left was the obstructed (sorry, 'restricted') seats.

Lop £5-10 off those prices, guarantee no obstructions, and I'd be there. As it is, I just couldn't justify £40 at the moment.

This would virtually pay for our stadium, make it happen.

"Premier League football club Tottenham Hotspur are rumoured to be on the brink of a record breaking naming rights deal for their new stadium that could pass £400m".

Wow, brilliant news if everything goes to plan and they can release information to the public at this point. Will have been incredibly quick progress by Moshiri considering the time taken by other clubs in this sort of area.

This is all getting a bit exciting.

An announcement by October would be fantastic. A new stadium would/will be the single most significant thing to happen to us short of winning the league. Managers and players come and go, but this is something that would be part of our identity as a club for 100+ years.

It's a game-changer for us in my opinion not so much on the financial side but in terms of image, reputation, and prestige. We really need to be back up there with a home that can stand equal to, or surpass, our peers. The one advantage of being a late mover in this respect is that we can avail of the latest thinking in terms of design and structure and will hopefully create something that stands out not just for Evertonians, but for all. The waterfront location would just add to the stand-out appeal that would be tremendous for everything to do with the club.

I really can't wait for the announcement and to get that first glimpse of what the envisaged design would be. I just hope that it is not a bowl of any sort and that we can create a stadium which is great to watch football in but intimidating to away teams.
Signal-Iduna Park / Westfalenstadion is probably the best in that regard but it will be fascinating to see the design concept and the influences behind it. I would favour a capacity of 50,000 - 55,000 with flexibility to upgrade - that would be perfect for us into the medium-term.

I'll make sure to have Talksport on

Well worth a watch shows the flexibility of stadiums, and how to create a destination hub' with multiple use venues.

If not simply skip to 30mins to see the concept behind this (which is getting built incidentally)
