New Everton Stadium Discussion

[KevMirallas]

I want it to be 60 000 seats.

50 000 feels abit meh.

Of course being a modern construction there will be the possibility of expanding it later.

I would be pretty confident it will be at least 55k.

An I right to be concerned the rent is subject to RPI?

How much is RPI gone up this year ?

No idea, that's my concern is the APR 1.45 fixed through out the term?

RPI not sure currently, but will eventually go up as the Brexit talks start. Back before the crash RPI was 5% per year increase in 2008.

I think they're pitching low with the capacity to get this funding model off the ground. Once the council approves it, the numbers may shift.

With room for expansion like !

Usmanov will have nothing to do with this, Banks and pension providers will be queuing up to give us the money as they get a great return.

Not if the 1.45% deal is true.

However, I can't imagine that Moshiri hasn't all of the financial packages already in place. There's no way they'd announce this structure that's so advantageous to Everton in the hopes that someone comes on board. We're only being told what we need to know.

USM does have an investment group within its ranks. I only know this as I read they invested 100 million into an online gaming company last year.

What are the FA or football league rules on anti-competitive behaviour? This relocation will see the football club move from over 6 miles away from the home of Tranmere Rovers to under 5 miles. Why don't they go the whole hog and move across the river to Birkenhead and completely kill the future of our modest but proud and historic club? Just how close is one club allowed to move towards another established club? 3 miles? 1 mile? 100 yards?

I know that historically clubs may have been sited closer and in Dundee they are practically adjacent but this is a large club moving closer to the fan base of a smaller club. Is that what the future holds? Transient tenancies as the larger clubs move around the country looking to expand their own fanbases at the expense of who cares what? Leyton Orient fell foul of West Ham's move to the London Olympic stadium. Who will be next and where will it (literally) end?

It's not enough that Everton took Dixie Dean from Tranmere in his prime for what was a relative pittance in order to better themselves but now they want to place their stadium on the bank of the River Mersey as the biggest advertising hoarding ever erected opposite the peninsula to entice people from the Wirral to cross over and support them. I hope it fails the planning stage. The crowd noise drifting across the river will be disturbing to those enjoying leisure time (promenade walks) or residing there.

Hmm, I'm not sure her detective work checks out to be honest

USM have lots of fingers in lots of things mate, basically own the biggest two social network sites in Russia and a huge mail group as well

Below something that was posted on another site that, to my simple mind seems to make sense:

Fans need to be smart and express support to Council and Joe for the whole regeneration of a deprived area. Because aside from our own footy mania, this is a really important scheme for the city.

You can bet Reds will try and challenge any Council involvement without any regard for fellow scousers.

The SV thingy they are setting up find the funding, not Everton

 

[BiggyRat]

Maybe we just need to build one big stand? Seems others consider it 'progressive'...

 

[nsno-chris]

Yes if LCC wanted to borrow that they get to borrow v cheaply, but we can't step in their shoes can we? Or does this guarantee mean we get access to their loan rates?

This is where the SPV comes in, if I've read it correct. Reading through it we pay the SPV who then pay the lender.

It sounds like a sub lease agreement, but the security of the council acting as guarantor makes it an easy sellto the lenders

Pretty sure this is the third time we've been given 'permission'.

Believe it when i see it.
