Newty82 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 £30m compared to the ROI is just peanuts Yep. £30 mill is fine. Probably go upto £40mill on the day the contracts are to be signed!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newty82 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Ask martinez if he wants to donate a third of it. Lukaku should. He's been robbing us for 6 months. I'm joking....I'm joking...I'm joking...!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Haha...listen to us..'ah, it's only £30mill'...easy when it's not your money!! Considering the naming rights, sponsorships and potential venue profits, it really is tiny in comparison. It would probably kill the Echo Arena mind you, though that's not necessarily a bad thing...

Louis Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Final look: I'm kind of amused by this. It seems the sole intention is to block the view of the new Anfield stand.

It looks like a giant council house. Who ever drew it, or gave permission for it to be built needs to hang their head in shame. But not as much as then money grabbing owners they have, it's a shameless extension. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 didnt think you could see it! Never could in the past but maybe with the extension it'd become visible from some areas of the Gwladys Street, just guessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowensda Posted September 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 We're not building it to block out the view at all. It's to make the front (Park End) look symmetrical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1983 Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) Previous design for the WHP site: CLIENT: Everton FC SERVICES: Competition YEAR: 2015 COUNTRY: United Kingdom With the idea of moving on from the limitations of its Goodison Park stadium, Everton FC invited a number of architects to come forward with proposals for the stadium with the best atmosphere in the world of football; a thrilling, inspiring and intimidating stadium, set in a new location in Walton Hall Park. The programme for the stadium, with a capacity for 50,000 spectators, includes stands for 17,000 local fans (Home End), 4,000 premium seats, 4,000 seats for parents and children in the Family zone near the pitch, a vibrant Fan Zone and the Club’s community action body offices: Everton–in-the-Community as a built-in part of the maximum level services offered at the Stadium. www.idom.com Edited September 17, 2016 by Rob1983 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 I love that! I really like the idea of a massive home end, Spurs have done it with their new stadium. That design is fantastic from the outside. I'd love to see the inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob1983 Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) From a very recent news article: Xan Young has stopped apologizing for being a sports designer. It’s a specialization shared by a relatively small number of firms, and she’s embraced the practice of developing seating bowls for arenas and stadiums. “I didn’t really intend to go into sports architecture,” said Young, a principal and lead designer at Meis Architects. “But once you have an expertise in it, I guess it behooves you to make use of it. I realized that’s what I wanted to keep doing.”For the past nine years, she’s worked with Dan Meis at various firms, including now at Meis Architects, a small, independent firm. She’s currently designing two European soccer stadiums (for AS Roma and for Everton FC), plus renovations at Staples Center and Paul Brown Stadium.

Makis Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Roma's stadium looks good, but Miller would stylistically suit the docks. LA stadium isn't half bad either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
