New Everton Stadium Discussion

Soulless bowl.

You’ve come to that conclusion from a drawing?

Just me who severely dislikes that? It's basic, doesn't look like anything special, doesn't blend in with the surrounding dock, same height all the way around, and nothing different to any other stadium. Thought we'd see something completely different like the Lucas Oil Stadium or the U.S Bank Stadium

Soulless bowl.

Aye, that isn't raising my pulse any.

Wish they would dump the single tier home end too. Just looks a bit desperate. Whatever the eventual design it will be neither as big nor impressive as the spurs version and will lack 'soul' compared with the red and yellow ones it is aping

Given how much hot air our 'starchitect' has put out about the stadium you'd hope he could come up with unique to us

Soulless bowl.

That's naming sorted then. I like the sound of it.

Can just imagine Jeff stelling saying "over to Chris Kamara at the soulless bowl. He's watching Everton v Doncaster and it's all gone wrong for the home side, kammy."

This looks like the only external picture in that brochure. Ties in with the ones previously seen. Hopefully this keeps heading in the right direction.

Scroll right down, wait for it to load, and there are some pics. Looks good.

Well I was impressed by that brochure, i don't know what people are expecting from it but it's just showing the technical and legal requirements of what they've done to design a stadium and fit it in the dock, I think that home end looks great especially with the 5000 standing behind the goal

Looks good

Also - aren't we missing a massive trick by not having a roof? Not to revisit this point - but its really windy on the front, and by having a roof we can host more events surely...

I can just imaging the atmosphere at the first home game.

I would wait for the actual renderings rather than the pretty technical stuff in that brochure before deciding what it will actually look like. Unless I missed a bit.

edit. Missed a bit. IF that is it on the near last page, I like it. A lot.

It surely can't be that? That rendering has been out for ages. Not saying I don't like it but this architecture game must be easy if you can knock an image out after 5 minutes and then sit on it for 5 years.

It's not small like!. The most important consultation exercise that's taken place on this has been with UNESCO.

Dave...are we making progress on this stadium or what?

.......and it’s UNBELIEVABLE, Jeff......

We'll all love a shiny new ground. But defo doesn't do it for me (this is like that earlier rendering from about 2 years ago little difference). Very average. Very poor.
