It's absolutely awful - inside and out.

And there is the problem.
The club know there's a good chance there not going to fill 60,000 seats so why build a stadium that big.
The club will have a rough figure given that they have season ticket holder waiting list and membership, hospitality numbers etc.
You either go for it big and build a brand new modern stadium or if there just after 10,000 more seats then just redevelop goodison, it may not look nice but at the end of the day your there to watch a football game.
The money is in the hospitality people pay between 250-1000 per person for people just wanting to go to one big game per season, your not going to get that if there's still 10000 tickets on general sale for the game.

Why don't you like it?
I think it's unique, which puts it into ICONIC status. Like an earlier post I made, it's very difficult and expensive for a new ground to be "iconic".

Entrance to the bars from outside the stadium,with a way into the ground for ticket holders from the bar,and keep the bars open all week.

Everything. It just looks bad.
It fits Indianapolis because it's a play on their historic fieldhouse basketball arena and the brickwork is used in other major buildings in the city. It would be like us building on BMD in the style of the dock buildings - which wouldn't be terrible, but also not amazing.
No need to copy something. That's not how you build an 'iconic' stadium.

Yeah but that's what it's got to be like isn't it ? I'm pretty sure at least part of the structure is going to look like part of the dock.
If we just plonk our version of, say, spurs new ground it's not going to be iconic.
Thats why I worry about the over use of that word at times.
Partly, but not solely.

How big would you like your stadium to be?

The Stadium timeline is plausible but a lot of my concerns is the lack of visual stadium plans with highlight the next stage of the stadium.
Having been to the People's Project roadshow/funbox/portacabin today, we won't be seeing anything soon and full application until this time next year.
Meis cannot please everyone and personally I have no agenda on the design of the stadium but I would like the capacity to be within 55k to 60k.
I understand we don't want to run before we can walk and we must learn from our previous failed attempts but I think a lot of fans believe that it is still a pipedream despite the positive media and noise from the club.

Went to Edge Lane today to fill out the survey, there was actually a queue of people outside waiting to go in so it is generating quite a lot of interest.
Regarding timeline, I took the below pic whilst I was there. There's another public consultation next summer with planning application being submitted late 2019.
