Newcastle stick the away fans up in the gods mate, not in the corner

Spurs away fans north east corner Newcastle away fans north east corner ???

Am happy to stay for a bit after the game while the crowds clear as long as I can get back to my car afterwards.
Seems like Bootle Strand is the only feasible parking area though

There's lots of parking off pall mall which is within decent walking distance to the ground which I'm thinking will be where I try first, but getting out of there is a bit of a nightmare already at busy times

Spurs is lower north east like ours. Newcastles is upper tier and (depending on away club and how many you sell) covers from behind the goal and along in the upper tier.

Just been to see it.

What I will say is this, I thought it was impressive in videos and photo’s, but they don’t do it justice.

It is a beautiful colossus! Just wow !

Broadcasting income is literally the same for each club so thats nonsense, while the stadium income is what will set us apart from the other clubs and let us spend more than all but 6-7.

It is not the same - the PL broadcasting money is distributed in several ways with an element equal but also facility fees & merit payments.
You also appear to be disregarding the share of broadcasting income derived from the Champions League.

They each get an equal share, and then the PL gives out merit payments, and its quite wild you want to say that moving up say 5 spots, or 10m in merit payments is "game changing" but a stadium increasing revenue by 60m is not. We would have to move up 30 spots which isnt possible.

Oh and now you realize your mistake and try and move the goalposts to include the Champions League, which is prize money, and not a broadcasting share so thats also completely wrong.

Someone at Liverpool chose short term success and nostalgia when they chose to renovate Anfield. It was an extremely shortsighted move.

The waterfront is premium premium location in Liverpool, they made a huge mishap not going for it when they had an opportunity.

I understand why they did it, their global fanbase is so big that they'd fill a loft converted stadium regardless and it makes sense to increase that to 60k plus rather then building a brand new stadium on Stanley park

I don't know how their hospitalilty on the hole punch compares to BMD but I imagine it's second rate but they'll have huge demand regardless

Be great to see them losing out on stadium gigs though

Google Maps says 41 mins to Lime St Stn. I've walked it to BMD from the Town Hall numerous times in approx 30mins, but I'm probably not the fastest walker.

I agree with you. I’m 66 with a dodgy knee but still find that Google maps walking times are very pessimistic. If they say it’s a 45 minute walk, I find I can do it in 30.

And doing it after a finish to a game like tonight you might get close to doing it in 20, despite age and dodgy knee.

BMD is magnificent when you see it in person but it has a lot to live up doesn’t it? It has a chance but it will take time to make it fully home. It offers lots that Goodison cannot there are some things that will also be lost. Hopefully we will create a lot of happy, winning memories there to build its identity quickly.

Where do you think UEFA get their prize money from ? Football is now essentially a TV spectacle - unfortunately fans through the gate are just window dressing.
