What have they done to our original home. What is that big eye sore stick out to the left. I call them hermit crabs. But I must detract as hermit crabs have more class than that to do that to thier inherited home.

I stand corrected!

Looking forward to sitting on some lovely Bullens Road wooden seating in BMD.

It wouldn't surprise me.

The Kopites have their 'This maens more' schtick; equally some Evertonians are hidebound to the past as a cloak of protection.

Time to let go of it and embrace the dynamism of a new era and a new start. The pioneers of Goodison left the past behind and set course on a new century. We should do too.

There certainly was a plan to bring 1,878 seats over from Goodison when the plans were first unveiled. Whether that's still the plan I'm not sure.

I can't imagine they'd bring the slightly-faded blue plastic seats. There's nothing special about those. They must have been thinking wooden.

And honestly, I'd be all for that.

I think of the wooden floor in GSE and stamping our feet, what a glorious sound.

Is this why we’ve stopped dredging? The amount of sand required to cover that thing must be insane.

What ? That's just Sid the Snake ? isn't it ?

Don't insult the great Moggie!!

I stand corrected!

It looks like something that a 4 year old might design. How the hell did they get planning permission for that monstrosity????

If we had won the commonwealth games bid.... it would've been east-west and no-one would've mentioned the TV broadcasting issues. It also would've probably been over 60k capacity.

The only design that I saw for the CG, was North South facing, with an open South stand similar to how City's ground was a staged construction, but with raised temp platform rather than a secondary dig.
Everton never really considered any of that though and never commissioned any designs, to my knowledge, of that sort, it wasn't in their plan. That's why the City also explored a floating track and field platform.
A lot of the stuff that Joe Anderson said was bluster, a way to try and build a following behind the idea to make Everton seriously consider it.

Hope it avoids all those sharp arrows which seem to be following it.

Maybe there was a covid outbreak with the crew and this stopped proceedings?

Shoalway is dispatching a load now, looks like when it was moored it still had its load of sand. When this is done looks like it will be off again to pick up another load and business as usual.
