New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[dockroad]

From what I know, those who got tkts last night do not get tkts for 2nd test event. But I think most will be at the 3rd event.

Was told by the club those who were there last night can't go the 2nd event but all STH 's are guaranteed the offer of a ticket for the 3rd event.

Surprised Colin Chong hasn't got an interview. Deserves his moment in the sun for a perfectly delivered stadium.

looking at the parking, I would have thought that some of the dock space would be used as private parking, particularly on match days. There is a space opposite the 10 streets social that is massive, from the pictures some of it seems to be used as storage and for parking already and 8 minute walk then to the stadium.

That's the Central Docks which Peel are now starting to develop.

There will be a minimum of 2,350 new homes built there alongside new parkland and commercial space.

Did anyone use these buses ?

He spoke well.
I still can't believe it's here, every time I think about it a big smile appears on my face, people must think I'm a nut case.

Mixed emotions about last night.

On the one hand: what an effin stadium. Looks every bit what we were promised. My pride in Everton is off the charts - that we've seen this pulled off in a period when we were on our knees (I know they might be related issues like) is incredible. That we've emerged to make an audacious balls on the table statement like this just underlines what a massive organisation Everton still is not only in English but global football.

On the other hand: there's sadness. Not about leaving Goodison so much, but in an early glimpse into how the fanbase will change over time. This is a massive commercial shake up and it'll leave behind thousands and thousands of Everton fans who simply wont get near the place on anything like a regular basis. Whole social strata's will be literally left outside looking in. This is headed in one direction - especially if we get success - Everton fans convergence with Liverpool fans who have been for a decade and a half calling visits to the pub to watch Liverpool "going the game".

The spectacle has arrived.

Ok I've seen all your loaded sausage rolls and giant blue doughnuts, but I'm a man of refinement. Is it just the bog-standard disgusting coffee on sale or have they got some decent stuff available? It's a deal-breaker for me. I bet Spurs have barristas in micro-beanies serving flat-whites and skinny lattes.

Souped up sausage roll - my lad said it was amazing, I never got a sniff.

Toffe doughnut - my daughter said it was “heavy” - I can confirm it was. Delicious.

This was the waterfront bar, all along the concourse near the long window - zero queues anywhere we went, loads of staff and got served so quick. Brilliant.

Loads of bogs, hardly any queues for them.

Bit chocka On the concourse, but i think that’s because we were all walking up and down exploring, and checking out other seats. When the rest of the ground is open I don’t think this will be an issue.

I am made up I got in, as I get season tickets tomorrow and I genuinely don’t care where I end up as every seat has a great view, even the back rows of the upper.

Cant wait for everyone to experience it, the pics and vids really don’t do it justice.

Brilliant pics mate. As you say no photos do it justice but yours come mighty close!

I know the second test event is 25k but how many in the 3rd one ?

Bearing in mind we're going to sell out the season ticket offering without breaking sweat, and that even more tickets will be available on a match-by-match basis, I'm not sure where your pessimism comes from. I haven't heard anybody say they've been priced out of buying a season ticket yet - in fact, they probably could have charged 25% more and it would still be among the cheaper tickets in the Premier League, especially for a massive club like us. The fans in the new stadium will be exactly the same as the ones in Goodison, only there'll be a few more tourists on top. Win win really.

Thought he was in the chokey?

Been a dream on here.

A short term fix given the plan is for that land to be developed. Probably depends if year round storage pays more than occasional event parking. There's bits that would require levelling to maximise it which have been dug for site investigations iirc.
