One of the best here mate.
Would love to have him and Palfy sharing banter haha pub moment!

Ha I can’t tbh because I don’t like the brickwork at all, I wanted none of that factory look even though I knew it was inevitable.
One thing I do know for sure though, once I’m there about to go into our new home for the first time I will fall in love with the place.

I’ve seen a couple of these kinda promos in the last 12 months of what the idea is, and found out quickly that functionality won at the cost of esthetics. All the greenfield projects I’ve been a part of have worked well, but looked bland.
But I’m just knee jerking. After so much anticipation and other things going on... I just hope I’m wrong.

LOVE IT!
Impossible...absolutely undeniably...impossible to please everyone but I reckon the vast majority will really like and appreciate this. The setting is going to be great.
Brilliant.

First it was Lukaku, then it was Gana. Who's going to be the next whipping boy? Could TT survive without one? Could we make it through the day without having someone to moan about?

I said I thought it'd be Pickford in another thread.

Aaah. Been busy mate. Something had to give. And consistently debating Gana was what had to go!

Yup, "Architects say the stadium's brick and steel construction will make it appear "as though it has risen from the dock" in tribute to the city's maritime past."
Nowt about red brick stickers there!

It looks like it in the video. Parts would be real brickwork (ie the presumed hotels etc) but most would be panels. Might just be shite visuals, but panels say fake to me

I’m just giving my initial reaction. Nothing about it makes me say wow. When things move on, I’ll happily admit I reacted too soon. If...

It’s never going to please everyone but I think it’s looks fucking top drawer. Just showed my stepdad who brought me up as a blue at four years old. He’s 75 in bad health through MS and he thought it was amazing and then said shame I won’t see it. This is the first draft, we have to remember what else will be built around it. Hotels, retail, ferry terminal. It really is the dream boys and girls.

So different to a certain other club that just gets residents forced to sell their homes instead.

Goodison future from Denise B-B..
Denise says the legacy proposal is a £100m civic inheritance project that will build on the existing facilities in the shadow of Goodison Park, including The Everton Free School, The People's Hub, The Blue Base and planned People's Place.
The site of Goodison Park will be "transformed" to include new homes "developed under a scheme that would explore new ways to make them available to residents who, otherwise, may never [be] able to afford their own homes."
The plans also include a health zone, education zone, sheltered accommodation, leisure and retail facilities, and a tribute garden to feature the existing centre circle and other areas of the Goodison pitch.
"There will always be somewhere where Evertonians can take children and grandchildren to share their Goodison memories,' says Denise to widespread applause.
Keeping the centre circle is a great idea!

Newty82 reacted to MikeO in Fabian Delph
I'd bet a fairly large fortune he won't be announced as our player of the season next May, be it joint or individually. Selling our best players isn't the way to progress.

Newty82 got a reaction from Wiggytop in Fabian Delph
Clever signing in my eyes.
Bags of experience. Versatile in his positions. Appears to still have some hunger. Knows how to win. Been surrounded by pure quality in every department for a number of seasons.
Not every signing can be Champagne Bubbly. Some signings just form part of a broader vision for shaping the squad.

To be fair, Palfy has given credit where credits due for a few months now. Or, at least, knew when to quit flogging a dead horse (Pete, I know, I know... a dead horse would be better than Gana)

Joint player's player of the year (with Digne); what do they know?
-
Newty82 reacted to MikeO in Weirdness Abounds (or the Idrissa Gana Gueye Thread)
Top three in fan's player of the year as well, along with Richarlison and Digne (who won, rightly so imo). Us Blues just don't understand football do we?

I know it is mate, and for the record Pete says a lot of good stuff that keeps the debating alive good poster.

Yeah, he deserves credit there too. It’s not a 1 man recruitment show, it’s a team effort behind the scenes.

Newty82 reacted to nogs in Marco Silva
The facts are we've gone backwards since Moyes left. Martinez was a massive disappointment after a fabulous first season, Koeman an absolute disaster after a strong second half to his first season. We really need to hope that pattern doesn't continue, otherwise we're facing the start of another cycle, another three, four years away from where we want to be. Top 6/Europe this season could have been another false dawn. Silva has seen the size of the job in hand, he's faced the backlash from the fans when we play shite, he's stuck to his principles and made another pretty bleak season end with some promise. There is serious work to do with the squad as we have nowhere near enough depth in quality, but with the best youth system in the country at present and a DoF who has shown already he can be pretty shrewd about how he deals for top talent, I'm confident Silva will have us make a real tilt at the top 6 next season.

Newty82 reacted to Hafnia in Marco Silva
Shown determination.... had a massive and quite alarming dip. The saying "Will get worse before it gets better" springs to mind.
Have to give him huge credit for the turnaround and our ability to give the better sides a game.
