New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[Street end man]

Have to say it hit home going to the Chinese supermarket today.
Turning in to Bounadary street the magnificent ground stood tall from a mile away....but jeez it's grey and the HD wording is finally bugging me, although i've said nowt up to now. Not a badge or a bit of blue in site....even from 150 metres the token crests are hidden.

Driving home past Stanley park..boom.
Yep Goodison looked tiny but the royal blue gable ends on stands and the massive white G O O D I S O N shouts home.
Not even any signs on tall posts on boundary street saying the home of Everton.
Dave K gets stick but he's right with this one.
Why have we not even done the Everton stuff on the seats yet?
Can't just be down to upsetting the sponsors surely? Quite strange the lack of identification this ground has.
I thought the same on my first visit in August but truly thought it'd be sorted now.

You think he’s being brought back in some capacity?

….i’d have thought he’d have gone back after the Chelsea game but turns up at FF and now at this game. Probably nothing in it but a little surprised to see him again.

It's an Everton/International football/rugby stadium.

They told us that it'd be a fortress....then they opened it and told us that it's a 'facility for the whole of the city'.

Pretty sure there is an additional changing room, when on the tour

Was it same sort of spec as the home one or more like the away one do you recall?

Men against boys in this game, btw.

Ivory Coast are playing a weakened team and finding it easy against Scotland.

Scotland's midfield is shocking.

Sharp in attendance.

Doesn't hold with me that.

Just keep away you rat.

Scotland's everything is rotten, tbf.

It's degrees of awfulness really.

Run out of doughnuts.

He was there for CFC game with the rest of the ‘85 team I think, he was certainly interviewed there as part of the celebration whenever it was.
Was suprised he plucked up the courage after the alleged board room death threats

On the Beeb it showed Scotland having the home dressing room....why?

He cant be denied his place in the clubs history...but he has NO place in our present or future.

Nice seeing the HT crowd scenes: the fans lapping it up.

Must be nice for people from places like Ivory Coast and Scotland to be in that stadium which gives them a little glimpse of the future and to dream what could be for them in time.

How condescending is this
