We asked you to send in your photos from the second test event at Bramley-Moore Dock ground on Sunday and any comments around the stadium, transport or overall experience.

Here are some of your replies:

Ash: Unreal stadium. I was honestly lost for words with how magnificent it is. The only setback was when walking away from the ground to town as we had to keep stopping to walk over the bridge next to the Titanic Hotel.

Lisa: The stadium is epic and the organisation was fantastic, but the transport issues need addressing before August so they can cope with over 50,000 supporters, plus staff. Exciting times ahead for Everton.

Matt: It was a brilliant experience for the whole family. A new dawn for the club. A new place but it still felt like Everton.

My dad and I had watched all the drone footage from when it was just a dock - unfortunately my dad passed away in 2023 and never saw it finished - so it felt important to go yesterday and experience it for him.

It is so much bigger in reality than on the high and wide aerial footage. They have managed to make it large and compact at the same time - truly intimidating, and hopefully a worthy successor to Goodison.

Andrea: Fantastic stadium. It really did have the wow factor, but is let down by the poor infrastructure. Waited for two trains to get to Sandhills from Brunswick (as they wouldn't let anymore people on the train) and only four car trains despite the mayor saying there would be eight-car trains! I decided not to wait for a train and walked the nearly three miles back to my car, but it was quicker than waiting for the train!
