    The new Everton ground looks amazing but why are the stanchions in the roof white instead of blue? Is it to do with light?

    Who scored the first goal at Rotherham's stadium?

    Still too small at 52k like most stadiums in the PL.

    Looks like another soulless bowl to me. Goodison was a proper iconic ground with a fantastic atmosphere. Another great old ground about to be consigned to history.
    I know it’s supposed progress but I find it sad.

    The Everton fans don't think so

    I don't get every new stadium being called a "soulless bowl". There's nothing worse for atmosphere than new grounds built with open corners, these new stadiums are designed with acoustics in mind.

    I spoke to a random Everton fan a couple of months ago, he couldn't wait for them to move, maybe its only Barnsley fans who are stuck in the past? I don't get the attachment to an old ground, in particular our old ground, its a mess tbh. Yes, it would be sad to leave oakwell, but people talk like its the Taj Mahal

    I like it, feels very German. Imagine the sound of the boos they will get going in there.

    Guess I’m just a miserable old traditionalist who hates to see great old grounds disappear o_O

    Our ground is too big for us, that’s the problem.

    If the Taj Mahal was in Turdistan it would be called Oakwell.

    Goodison Park is a dump with restricted viewing and little leg room. They should have left years ago.
