New Everton Stadium

Oh no 20 pages of fish puns.

TBH as soon as I posted it I thought Oh no!

Top Balcony is 38 degrees and the new South Stand will be 34 degrees.

The Gwladys Street is 26 Degrees for a bit of perspective.

Bloody climate change

Bloody climate change

Them turbines have a lot to answer for. Those it doesn't chop into a thousand pieces will be frozen to death. Nobody will help us behind that wall. We're all doomed.

Get Jo on.

That’s if people can get back through the wall. There’s great concern from some quarters that the wall is just too big for Evertonians to figure out how to breach it.

They’ll just be bouncing off and walking straight into the Mersey.

Something must be done.

I have a fear that it’ll be like the scene in World War Z, when the zombies are trying to scale the wall into Jerusalem. Judging by someone’s comments on here, I’m gathering that the dock wall is about 100 foot tall with far too few egress points?

Yes.... it's an interesting comparison. The Green guide actually limits safe standing areas to 25° rake, so I'm not quite sure how that'll rationalise itself into the front section of the South Stand yet.

Can I ask, where did you get the rake angle for Gwladys St stand (upper)? I have drawings of the existing stands, but away at the moment.

If people don't want to pay for a taxi or walk 30 mins to the ground they can always get octopus.

You can get a good idea how steep and impressive the South stand will be from this.

In the plans you can see that the stand will go to above that platform, so following the line of the steel that's already in place you can visualise how big it's going to beView attachment 172497

You just know that fence next to the dock is going to be 6ft high.

Pretty sure I read somewhere it's going to be 8ft.

Pretty sure I read somewhere it's going to be 8ft.

With barbed wire on the top?

If half of our fans were around when this baby was getting built, you would have heard plenty of comments like,

"It's not iconic enough"
"It needs to be at least 60,000 seats"
"It's just a generic bowl"
"It doesn't have a roof"
"Where are the Leichius Maximus crosses"

No point in having this stadium if we can’t afford the likes of Spartacus and Maximus Decimus Meridius MDM lad

The rake of the Gwladys Street i mentioned was the lower tier. I have no idea about the upper.

If you have the drawings, can you post what the various rakes are around the ground, please?

Interesting: the Regent Road wall on the site side has brickwork behind it left behind from where the Overhead Railway ran alongside it.
