New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[Frenk]

I think a lot of the language on that site is quite dated. I know as well that Meis himself fielded a lot of the fan uneasiness about the capacity, so it may have been written in response to that climate.

Ultimately, we didn't build what Meis designed. We built a rationalised version of his design produced by Pattern.

This is the image that accompanies the entry on the Meis site - it's very different to what we got:

Maybe, but it does align with the actual capacity right now, sure things changed but the basic concept is still the same. It’s very similar.

Personally I think increased capacity is possible and in the future if needed we will do it. Yeah it’s a backward approach but hey this is remnants of Everton of old the Everton before the new owners came in.

Here’s a thought, enjoy our new home, if we become successful, maybe, just maybe our owners will want to expand.
In the meantime, it’s 52k and absolutely fantastic.

Agree 100%, it’s better than brings the club forward, and that’s what we should be looking at.

Special guest managers? Be nice for Benitez to lead us out again

Legends game after the match. This to phase out the fans leaving the stadium as I doubt everyone is going to stay?

Stop talking sense! It’s frowned upon… repeat offenders could even get banned!
It’s best to talk utter tripe and critique every detail, some random bloke called Dave told me this.

That was my immediate thought to it.

Glad there is a legends game.

I've long said that should have been the opener at the Hill Dickinson/Closing game at Goodison.

My daughter must have passed on the message

They can’t get hold of Dyche - he’s at Glastonbury with no mobile reception wearing a vest and bucket hat.

depends which legends are playing

Totti, Falcao, Conti, Graziani, Batistuta, Giannini, Cerezo, Völler, Häßler, Cafu, De Rossi, and Tancredi managed by Mourinho versus Hibbert, Schneiderlin, Gylfi, Richard Wright and Glenn Keeley managed by Frank Lampard.

Jags testimonial?

Should be called an Old Boys match like the local teams have. We will definitely struggle to get a team of legends together.

Depends on what our players are "legendary" for...
