New Everton Stadium Discussion

That's always been the brief given to the media.

Heard on good authority it's ahead of schedule, Oct or maybe even September completion (including testing events)

Would be a monumental mistake if they don't use it for close to 12 months for the men's 1st team .

I know we've made some complete f-ups in the past but doing that would top the lot

No way?

That's crazy! I'm blown away by that tbh

Agreed, if it's ready then why not get us in.

Oh, how I miss those big bad boy tower cranes. It was like something from War of the World's with the new stadium being the 'Mother' ship.

Makes a note to try and get out more!

When it was first drawn up didnt we get told it would be the largest tv screen in the world or something? I take it that is also not happening now?

No, I don’t think that was ever claimed.

Everton's new ground will have an end based on Dortmund's Yellow Wall

One of the chief architects behind Everton's new stadium has revealed plans to replicate Borussia Dortmund's 'Yellow Wall'. Architect Dan Meis met with Everton supporters on Monday night.

1 of the first concept plans did have a big TV, but I dont think anybody ever claimed it was biggest in the world and those concept plans were changed a long time ago.

Do you have this as fact? Or you honestly think they'll leave (or think it's a good idea) a close to £bn asset sitting there for 8 months?

It was Dan Meiss who said he wanted it to have it at St Lukes. Obviously at the time the budget wasn't a restriction/
