New Everton Stadium

Should we just knock it down then and start again because you don't like a certain feature. Stop moaning and revel in the one thing Everton are getting right..

Not enough girders blocking the views

Exactly.

Looks like it's sagging to me and that is poor design.

Well you've been told it's not sagging and a fair few have suggested the reasons for it

Looks like it needs a piece of 4x2 timber to push it up level.

It is sagging though when u look at it.

 

[degsy]

it may be to cope with high winds over the top, low pressure over the roof, higher pressure underneath, just as the top will be bowed to resist gravity, the lower section could be bowed to resist wind pressures lifting the roof structure

All true; years ago a guy told me about canopies of all sizes;
The hard part isn't holding them up - its holding them down.

Great pics @davek pity about that bloody wall obscuring the view though!

You can just see the stadium over it. On tiptoes.

It's intentional....lots of modern stadia have inverted or twin arch trusses. The Emirates and Juventus for instance.

Without it the trusses may have needed to be deeper/heavier, creating a higher upper arch.... and we know we had some height constraints at planning.

All totally irrelevant because Johnny said it looks dodgy and the pitch doesn't fit anyway.


Should've stayed at Goodison. Ffs.

Thats just par for the course.

Everton win league, World War 1 breaks out. League cancelled

Everton win league, World War 2 breaks out. League cancelled

Everton win league, European Cup Winners Cup and due to play Juventus in the Super Cup Final. European ban on English clubs ensued plus Super Cup final cancelled. Everton unable to compete in Europe with arguably their best ever squad.

Everton cannot stray from mid table mediocrity otherwise it upsets the balance of the universe.

Oh how i long for mid table mediocrity

I think your taking the piss and a WUM so I'll leave you be with your sagging roof stuff and let you bore yourself with the constant crap you post

I'd love to say the love we shared was a lifetimes worth but it wasn't, honestly.
