New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[kev]

I've seen enough to know that with a proper decorative fit-out, both the concourses and the stadium itself will be absolutely magnificent.

I don't doubt for one minute that that WILL happen. Loads of people have (rightly) criticised how 'industrial' it looks on the concourses with vast expanses of plain concrete walls. To me, it was similar to going to view a brand new house.
It's absolutely fantastic but still looks a bit sterile. As with any 'new build' you need to stamp your own personality on it to make it truly a home.
Imagine it when its fully furnished. I would be amazed if every single wall isn't adorned with Everton branding, photos of former players etc.

President of Gulf States Toyota just joined the board… could be another hint at the stadium sponsor.

Toyota is easy, im not sure I want the easy route.

Clever businessmen avoid spending their "own" money as much as possible.

I realise its a PSR scam and would help us massively, but my hope is we dont take the easy route and go for the clever route.

The more external money we attract, the more we avoid another Ukraine War.

I'll finally buy a full kit if the Hot Wok is emblazoned somewhere on the arse.

How many bike racks are there and was anyone using them ?…..

yeah I took a picture of the bike racks being used to put in my next video

You know how in the F1 the drivers get a cap emblazoned with whichever sponsor has paid most, and there's all sorts of spite* for the tv interviews with the top flight tennis after match thing. Well, we've got the back board for the football, but how long before a cap and a branded bottle of cola and a line of dialogue... "it was a game of two halves, the best team won, we had to roll our sleeves up, and feckface cola is ever so refreshing".

They'll be retrofitting the works of Shakespeare and Rembrandt paintings at this rate.

I understand your logic.

For me, it all comes down to numbers.

I think it’s important, too, to make the distinction that TFG isn’t Toyota, they’re essentially a franchisee.

If the money came from Gulf States Toyota, then you’d be 100% right that it’s the easy option.

But if the Friedkins are able to use their pull with Toyota themselves to get us a good deal, then I think that’s also pretty smart. Particularly if it’s more than market value.

If the new stadium is the 'Heinz blue ketchup arena', all might just be forgiven.

Yeah for sure.

Im curious what you were trying to find considering there were massive signs all over the place.

The Arteta money?

I took this from Row 57 east stand approx seat 220 in what I think was block 223 if it helps. I was trying to get to 324

Yep, that's just a few seats away from us, but we're row 56. Great to see the exact view (almost). Did it feel a long climb to get to that far back? Will I need oxygen and a picnic?

Here's the great advice from Everton's transport hub: "Be sure to use your bike to get to the ground...but dont ride through pedestrian traffic".

So you're supposed to get off and wheel it to the ground from about a mile away. May as well walk it.

Will the increased capacity make it easier for fans with the yearly Everton membership to get hold of tickets for a day trip to Liverpool?

I think yesterday demonstrated that there are loads of ways forward and room for progress with the right commercially minded people at the top - not charity workers pretending to be CEO.

However, the one slight niggle I had yesterday was that on a few occasions, I asked stewards inside the ground where to find something and the response was "I've no idea, I am as lost as you are".

To some extent, I understand its new and everybody will get better. However, you would think the club would have trained stewards on where things are because its an essential part of their job.

"Search me lad, I only work here".
