New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[Connor]

From the city centre, it's an approximate two miles (40 minute) walk to the new ground (less than the equivalent distance to Goodison).

I appreciate that some supporters have difficulties with mobility but the vast majority are able bodied and a two mile walk shouldn't present too much of a challenge.

I blame kids getting dropped off by car at the school gates for most of the moans on here - have you never heard of shanks pony?

Coming back to this in mid December when people have done the walk down the dock Road in sideways rain after a home defeat

There`ll be plenty of heads melting on here if we lose to Brighton and half the crowd are stuck till Tuesday at Sandhills waiting for a train.

Good on you for making the effort and I'm sorry to hear of your diagnosis.

I hope that the new stadium and watching the Blues gives you plenty of pleasure.

I’ve just spotted a post on X saying only 25 days to go etc., many of the comments (a lot) were complaining about branding, white walls inside and the lack of Everton on the seats.
Have the club said anything about this branding to the interior? I presume we will be selling advertising and I would imagine they will be LED boards now.

Are the first 3 home games still being rearranged because the stadium isn’t ready
Remember that whopper.

Read from a fans forum rep that the insides will remain plain for a while until people get used to their surroundings. They want the signposting to be clear which makes sense tbh.

I think it looks half-finished right now. The roofs of the main structure are still strewn with scaffolding, detritus and remain unpainted. The walls in the stadium are still bare concrete. It looks industrial and starkly functional at the moment.

I want to love our new home, but it’s still very much a new house.

Knowing our luck we’ll mess up the pre season game and he’ll end up being right.
