New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

Jesus Dave your like the ghost of kenwright
You just won’t ever give it up

I cant agree. What's the point if that's what we 'want'...

We support a football team because of their identity and their history and our investment into those things.

If it's all just about inhabiting a corporate 'facility' and getting cash in to pay down debt and have no firm identity at that stadium then that is a massive problem for me.

We are diminished. And tbh - as much as I'm a fan of the stadium and its location - we are estranged from this club like we could never be at Goodison.

How does it help our identity leaving it idle for a spare weekend - that doesn't make sense mate.

Is it more Everton if nothing happens in it today.............

On social media right now, you have the ground plastered around the world, hence the profile of club is raised and publicised, the world is googling Hill Dickenson Stadium and the home of Everton Football Club as we speak.

Our identy is rooted now both in L4 and the Northern Docks.

I Just asked AI to advise our chances of winning the league in the next 30 years. They advised 1-2% is it really worth bothering

If we'd secured our identity at this place already as the club who are synonymous with it then events like today could be tolerated. However, we are still struggling to make the transition in terms of that new stadium.

We know we play there and our fans have settled into the infrastructure and buy into it, but the wider world see H*** D******** Stadium - a sporting (and soon musical) facillty in Liverpool's dockland.

Ground looks great. As do those short shorts lol!

Have you done a survey mate.

0 difference between this and Brazil playing in Goodison during the World Cup in 66 really, hell there was a base ball game at Goodison wasn't there.

The stadium will be associated with football once we put an exciting, attractive, and successful team into in wearing blue and white rather than the regressive, constipated dross that currently passes for a side.

How can they see it otherwise when 'Everton isn't even inside or outside the ground and we have commentators talking about 'coming live from Liverpool'.

It's an issue. Everyone knows it is.

Exactly. Which isn't anytime soon.


In the meantime it is unbelievable that our club have signed up to a deal that keeps OUR NAME from being mentioned in OUR stadium.

They'll flip the club within five years.

The idea these owners are ambitious is correct - ambitious for their own wallets. For the football team? Evidence pending.

Imagine the Kopites being told they cant have their own club name on seats for a few seasons so the owners and their loan partners can get the stadium up and running as a general entertainment facility.

FFS they'd (rightly this time) riot.

How is the Branding different from Goodison over the years, i know they had the canopy timeline thing up in recent years but before that it was just the odd crest here and there.

Everton football club is in Liverpool, it always surprises me there is an insecurity about that, in a ceding of the City type of way.

I posted a video yesterday from a Australian mainstream channel covering the rugby that walked around the stadium and there was nothing but Everton branding the whole way through, they got to the dressing room and there were Everton shirts with the players names front and center. I really think you are misreading this.

Good to see another home win today.
