New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[Tom Hughes]

Difference is Tom there are over 52 thousand at one venue and how many was at the under 21's last night ?

Not sure tbh.... a couple of thousand. But there were 60k over the park.

Watching their game last night, I couldn't help thinking that Arsenal really get great coverage of their stadium.

It's a pity we still have our stadium being projected as Uttoxeter Leisure Centre's swimming pool instead of it against the backdrop of our city skyline.

Thank you for this inspiration. (btw I see one arsenal badge on that thing in this shot!)

Se we have water enclosing our new HD stadium, and have this signature view to show off the design.

I like these also.

Got me thinking, my knowledge of other grounds is fairly limited, has anyone got any other examples of grounds directly on (next to) water, (yes Fulham is on the Thames) but I'm thinking more on a dock or a lock system or a lake or other* body of water?

If it snows this winter, it'll look amazing the area blanketed with snow and the glow it'll produce. Hope the drone experts are keen for a drone-by in alternate conditions.

All those photos are looking back north and way from the city.

When the ball boys and ball girls also have to have lifeguard swimmy badges it's probably a big ask.

I do not care, the main event is the stadium, and when I'm inside it I can't see much of outside anyway.
Would you like TFG to buy up the immediate 2 mile radius around the ground and stick your own personal fun fair there?
Bleak and obtuse yods, bleak and obtuse.

This is a good pic, I especially like the railway bridge.

Well. Who knew?

In what could be the decisive blow in the fight against 'health & safety', the Mapei Stadium has a moat inside the ground to prevent pitch invasion.

You want a solution? As much danger as you like? Ask the boyo's from Italy that have machine gun nests in their stands.
