New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[Davideeyore]

Just thought Stanley Park would be a good money earner as before PLUS the bus companies could jump on the band wagon with a direct to/from BMD. We come down the M62 at the Rocket and along Queens Drive.

Not being someone that knows the faintest idea what I'm talking about, will there be any park and ride from Walton Lane/Goodison I wonder?

Have I missed a Forum Topic regarding parking around / near the new stadium for supporters who live out of the City? We travel from the further outskirts of Manchester and have always paid to park at Stanley Park. Where are these 1000's of cars going to park? Might there be a park and return bus ride from the park?

Park in a city centre car park and walk - eg by moorfields

Just thought the obvious really!. Stanley Park at last season's price of £13 a car with 1000's parked there at one place would have been the obvious park/ride site to ease the parking problem and make money. With being a 71yr old "Biddy" who brings a 13yr old lad, I don"t fancy a long walk.

I wonder when, when looking at the stadium on the inside, it will be apparent that it belongs to Everton FC. The lack of identity is really a huge concern.

Obviously I'm still delighted with the stadium in general, but surely they must Evertonise it on the interior and not just a few crests on the outside.

It's more like Hill Dickinson FC right now.

They sound like a more upwardly mobile outfit than us, to be fair.

Might get a season ticket to them.

Bit surprised the seats don't spell out Everton or at least EFC

At this stage, even an E would at least indicate we're not 'Hill Dickinson Football Club' (no E in that).

Looks like a lot of people are going to get wet..

It's a fish eye lens, so the perspective is distorted somewhat. Still, I wouldn't want to be sat near the front few rows.

thats the perspective of where the image is taken. the roof edge is directly above the front row of seats. It'll be no worse than any other stadium in that respect

You have just torpedoed yet another line of whinging.

Exactly this. All seats are covered but if the rain is coming down at an angle someone is going to get wet.

That's the same for all stadiums that don't have a fully enclosed roof that makes it basically an indoor venue.

Thought that from the head on view. Disappointing really.

Also didn't realise it is surrounded by nearly 75% of water.

It’s built next to a river mate.

Ah but the pitch fits. Yes.

So is the riverside mate. But the water isn't round the perimeter of it.

I was referring to the docks and canal.

Let me know if you need it explaining more. Happy to help.

well they will still get wet as rain rarely falls straight down, a bit of swirl will still see the first few rows getting moist. At row 57, it isnt something I will have to worry about
