New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[PhilM]

We found the opposite. BMD is sealed at the corners so there was no draught from the cold wind at all. I was pleasantly surprised.

At Goodison the corners are open, and the wind is much more prevalent (speaking from UGS, anyway).

Like you, @D410 I found it quite pleasant. I was wrapped up pretty well, but at the back of the south I didn't feel the cold, to the point I didn't wear gloves.

I had expected it to be like Stoke! The walk back was pretty cold, so I perceived it as the stadium being fairly well insulated/protected from the weather.

As others have said, I do have concerns about the train situation because (like I had predicted) Sandhills is going to be a very unpleasant experience.

I may try the busses next time.

And you helped it go viral. Point being happens all the time. Personally I'd rather focus on the stadium and the one off occasion.

Am concerned of how it reflects on Evertonians and the fact that fellas first thought once he entered the ground was to film himself robbing.

As some who's lived all round the country and was constantly at odds with people who the perceived Scousers as "thieves" and I take personal exception to that carry on that gives idiots ammunition to fire at us.

So if you think that deserves a finger am going to take exception.

@Charlie Sweet you're great

Ped from toffee tv said it did feel cold in there so wrap up for the next test event

He is a wimp then: Ped was sat in front of us and it was not bad at all. Sure it was a cold night but there was no way the cold breeze could be felt in a stadium with sealed corners. Pleasantly surprised.

Any whispers to the beer selection mate?

The club hadn't decided at the end of December/early Jan, although there will be a pretty good selection to choose from if the trial list is to go by.

No. My lads are praying for decent local beers like they have at Spurs, but there was no indication either way last night.

What I will say is the concourse is very cold, with vents to the outside below the panoramic window.
I felt sorry for the excellent serving staff who were freezing in their uniform black shirts.

Am of the same mind of your lads..I'll not hold my breath mind on a local beer.

Decent Guinness,Lager and pale ale and I'll be very happy.

The stand behind the goal looks similar to me to what Spurs have. Is that a fair comparison ?

The club will have to be very savvy with prices or drinks and food in fan zone, not to mention heated covered areas
