Everton thread 2020/21

Do you think 52k lacks a little ambition? Think it looks mint but don’t you reckon they could have gone to 60k?

I think 60k would have been much more of a statement of intent. But guess until things like transport and retail options are looked at the 52k was more realistic.
It is in a relatively undeveloped area of the docks though sandhills would still be nearest station so not a lot of change

Goodison Park can't be expanded cos it's smack bang in the middle of a residential area. If Bramley Moore means not having to sit in a shed, which the Lower Bullens basically is, that's a plus. I will miss Goodison though. It's a shithole, but it's OUR shithole.

I will miss the vertigo of the top balcony and warm chang at half time. It's the football equivalent of the Mary Rose but some great memories to cherish. Won't miss county road mind

Why, because Everton fans are all going to drown ourselves in it after a bad game?

There wont be many fans left at the end of the season :)

The trouble with only one entrance is that it'll take ages to walk around to the other side plus you'll get loads of early leavers if walking and transport is bad.

I presume there'll be a promenade area around the ground and multiple entrances.

I get that but what I was trying to say that there is really only one direction you can approach the stadium from.
I suppose they could start match day ferry services to the quays.

They've got the Soccerbus. I usually get it if I'm going alone.

How's it being financed mate - big cash injection, or Arsenal style freeze on player spending until it's paid for? I only ask as your red brethren seem suddenly filled with a touching concern for your finances ;-)

No idea, but it would help if we could offload some of the players who are just taking up space. Not that anyone wants them.

That’s what a lot of people said about Maine Road

It sure is, and I will miss the place. Great memories. My dad taking me to my first game there when I was 9 is one of the best moments and I can still remember so much about it

Yes! It is our shithole and we love it, but we need a new one.
