Whitley mag Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Landlord has put Tyneview Park in Benton up for sale, current tenants are DWP but lease runs out in 2027, be interesting to see if club go for the land, new housing estates don’t make it ideal but right next door to current training ground and academy.

I used to be a regular in the Black Bull and The Ship pubs in Benton a couple of decades ago - I can only imagine how they would cope being pretty much the only pubs next to a new stadium Edited July 7 by TheBrownBottle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 I juat watched a bunch of videos of Everton's new stadium. Yeah, the stadium design itself is nothing that we have not seen before but the location itself is going to be something nice, especially night games. Which broght me to think of SJP. Cathedral on the hill, dead center, surrounded by the entire city, night games have always been special, both to the match going fans as well as viaually on TV when there are aerial shots of the stadium. Then when I thought about it, if Option C was not going to happen for us, and we would have to move, which other location would get an aesthetic feeling similar to SJP? The arena site would have been great. Imagine a 5.30 kick off with the sun going down, aerial shot of the stadium with the bridges in the background would be visually stunning as would a night game too of course. I can't think of any other site apart from that and also our current one that would give you that special feeling for night games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye I have watched a few videos of Everton’s ground and it’s new and shiny and that, but I know fine well that when the novelty wears off they will miss Woodison. For all the poor views and wooden seats there, it is a proper football ground and holds memories. If we do have to leave SJP (I hope we don’t) then it needs to be rebuilt on the current site imo. I don’t think it’s realistic to move it to Leazes Park. The arena site would be decent too I suppose, but like you I love that Cathedral on the hill feeling where you can see SJP for miles around. One thing I want in a new ground is a massive, single tier terraced stand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonBez comesock Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 This is not being horrible or harsh But does anyone’s else’s toes curl up when they hear ….. Cathedral on the hill ? The name of the ground ….St James’ Park - Is iconic enough ps I miss the warm weetabix smell 😂#brewery😂 Having said all that , if we can’t expand we need to try and move a few hundred yards backwards into the park Doubt if anyone has thought of that ?

I can't see how we can expand sufficiently mind. Leazes and a major road block anything substantial save for a crap extra tier on the gallowgate surely which most won't want to sit in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're already starting to build some bellway homes on some of the land, there are roadworks happening already to prepare sewage works. I would imagine the whole thing will just become another housing estate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

From around 2008-2014 when they switched to only really hiring people on fixed term contracts it feels like everyone I knew (as well as myself) did their time in there. It was (barely) organised chaos, not so much in terms of the environment itself (you could easily coast by doing next to nothing), but the organisation of it all. They had a bunch of us all on 6 month fixed terms, but at the end of each contract they'd just renew it for another 6 months. They did this enough that by the time they decided they weren'y going to renew we'd all been there just long enough to get redundancy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heyzeus scrogg Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 It's a bugger if the council won't give us the crime ridden leazes Park then whare? General hospital ? City stadium? Metro arena for me but that horse has bolted? We need a new 70k stadium . Could we not just goosh the grainger market. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toon No9 Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 What's happening with the expansion of SJP(or to build a new stadium)? And what's happening with the new state of the art training centre? It's soon 3 years since the takeover and no desition has been made yet on either. I thought they would work at a higher pace with theese questions.

Toon No9 Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 I understand it takes time to build theese things. But i thought they would be quicker to make decitions. The infrastructure of stadium and trainingcentre doesn't have to take 10 years. I did expect them to get some decitions made so we could get the ball rolling by now.
