New Everton Stadium

Yep, that's from not designing the roof properly in the first place. They had to anchor it down afterwards with cables in the corners. The cheapest solution to fix the design problem.

You lot spent to much on your stadium. You should of bought Wembley but given all the cup games, non sporting events to the fa so they still get some income.
Everything in place in terms of transport links, sporting events etc

Why would they want to permanently move 12 miles from White Hart Lane? Most Spurs fans hated Wembley.

It's amazing how the engineers for Juve got that so wrong. Mind you we cocked up too, with the Main Stand. The roof supports were originally not going to be obstructive -- we ended up with two roof supports, one each side of the Directors Box. I'm surprised the Main Stand roofing has never been reconstructed to remove the need for these.
Chelsea built their Main Stand a year or so later and got it right. No obstructions at all and a far better looking stand.

It's nuts that those two standss Chelsea built where built at a similar time as ours. Theirs does not look out of date at all.

To be honest it can't be viewed in the same way, our main stand's biggest issue was caused by Goodison Road cutting in. The back of the balcony actually is closer to the pitch than the lower part which is not something that usually happens with overlapping tiers. They could have and should have cantilevered the roof but the people at the back of the middle tier would still had obstructed views as there is no way you can cantilever the balcony.
