• BarryrnrnTo many of those points you make on the stadium feeling a tad half finished, I\'m in agreement.rnrnI said all summer why did we not for a start paint up all that concrete that\'s on show or at least get some Everton skins decked out.rnrnWhen I watch us on TV the disabled section at both ends of the ground sticks out like a sore thumb don\'t you feel?rnrnThe big South Stand, the home end as it is feels like it\'s had two big bites taken out of either side, FFS just blue it out Everton please, we\'ve had a whole dry summer to work on it.rnrnThe stadium itself is wonderful but there are little tweaks that wouidnt take much to improve the aesthetics of it....

• At the rugby games were the spectators allowed to take alcoholic drinks to their seats? And what about in the Seat Unique hospitality zones? Is alcohol allowed in those seating areas? Seems crazy to pay those inflated prices and not have hospitality at your seat. I visited the stadium in August and there was one bar open, empty, and the doors to the seating area were locked. If they would have a seating area available in which to sit and drink a beer I would have had a couple while enjoying the view of the stadium....

• BBC Gossip mentioning Real Madrid like the look of Branthwaite. Well they would, he is class and will only get better. It\'s only time before he\'s off. However when it happens, lets make sure we get a minimum £200m plus addons. He\'s that good....

• Mark, I thought this summer's rugby events were a perfect way to get rolling with a new stadium -- no international overlord scooping up all the revenues and dictating rules, no masses of overseas fans requiring major security upgrades, just a full stadium of rugby supporters eating and drinking and not invading the pitch. But the big money will come into HDS via music events, especially multi-day concert tours. Beyonce did five-show sets last year at two NFL stadiums, spread out a couple of weeks, that brought in over $50 million in ticket sales. The venue would keep about 10% of that -- PLUS all the concessions and parking revenue. That's serious stuff. Way better than any UEFA deal. It takes time to get on the tour schedules and learn how to host concerts properly -- security and protecting the playing surface from damage are the hard part -- but if a 30-year-old NFL park can do it in the US, HDS certainly can....

• Mike 22rnrnI\'m inclined to agree with that. But it\'s the same with the 5 euro games some have been extolling. In fact it\'s the same organiser, same rules. You get a modest rental fee. You won\'t make your fortune out of this.rnrnBut that begs the question, in terms of using the stadium to create enough revenue to pay for itself, where do we make our fortune and what evidence is there that we are doing so?...
