As good as EITC is, going from that to overseeing a hundreds of millions pound new stadium development is like going from managing a corner shop to managing Asda. I admire your confidence but it does seem like its over confidence to me.

Stadium naming rights are only really valuable in the states because there isn't shirt sponsorship. The problem is that it isn't extra money because it devalues your other sponsorship deals.
Not really. You're comparing an annual benefit with a multi-year cost. Better to think of it as £5m a year income uplift versus the £25m a year cost (over 25 years) of the stadium. It'll pay for 20% of the stadium.

Club are looking to submit planning permission in September. I'd imagine IF we find the money for this 2020 work begins? Anyone have ideas of timescales after planning permission is accepted?

'In around September'? Two adjectives being applied to an already delayed deliverable.

fancy going to an exhibition like this and not even having, or not wanting to show, at least an outline of a stadium design... just the clubs crest.
they obv have designs, and the dan meis designed stadium will probably be at the high end of the amount we are trying to find to build it (say £500m)
the club obv don't want to release renders of this high end design, incase we end up putting a 150m 'reebok stadium' there instead.
shockingly bad from the club

But but but the stadium is going to lose the docks it's world heritage status. Never mind the huge office and housing towers.
Sounds to me they have the final costings in.
Not to say that cant escalate as its being built.
500 mil is more like the figure we all new it was going to be.

This may be a daft question but at circa £500m does this actually stack up?
There's talk of more corporate seats and I get that they bring in a lot more money, but exactly how many businesses around the city are willing or able to pay those kinds of prices? Liverpool isn't London, or even Manchester commercially speaking. Is there an established demand for these lounges/boxes/meals etc? Arsenal had a tight few years after the Emirates was built, but they made a fortune from selling Highbury, they had all those companies with UK HQ's in London on their doorstep,and they had Arsene Wenger and a team playing 'nice' football.
I guess I'm wondering how long will it be before the new stadium is boosting transfer funds rather than sapping them? Does it immediately give a boost to revenue and Brands is laughing all the way to the bank or are the next few years going to be bargain hunt. In which case is David Dickinson even available?
