New Everton Stadium

[Lanolin]

That’s a nightmare

Takes about an hour to get on a train from Arsenal tube leaving the stadium well that’s how long it took for me at the Arsenal v Everton game.

If I walked to Highgate overground or even 7 sisters tube it would have been easier And that’s a bit of a walk.

You'd have to walk past about 5 other stations to get to Highgate!

You can reach me by railway, you can reach me by trailway
You can reach me on a sedan chair, dropped off by the chauffeur on a cloud of air
You can reach me by caravan, swim the river from the Wizza man
I don't care how you get here, just get here if you can...

Very good sir. ? ? ? ? Take a bow.

Yeah, I think so. The best solutions would be to build a new station between Sandhills and Moorfields AND improve Sandhills. Sadly, neither of these things will happen. At the very least, though, I think we will expect to see better facilities outside the station to help with marshalling the queues. More covering for the bad weather, for example. As has been stated as well, if the time of the next trains is displayed at BMD that will help people plan their walk from the ground and encourage people to have a pint.

upton park was a bottleneck, hopefully entertainment after the game for an hour would be a great help

Even the london stadium and all its connections, is still a pain get away from

This is probably a stupid question but.. currently the east and west stands don't meet the floor. Does anyone know if they'll go further down or will the pitch be build up?

East and West do, South and North don't currently but this is to enable roof works. Those gaps, plus terracing, will be filled last prior to pitch obvs.

Not a stupid question, at all. I've been thinking that myself. Total guess but I'd say the south stand still has about a third of a way to go. I'm guessing similar for the north stand. I'd suppose that they need to get as close as possible to the back of the stands with the crawler cranes to put the roof trusses on. Once they're on, they'll finish the concrete terracing, I'd say. Anybody with an engineering background have a take on this?

The gaps currently at the front of, and in between the already fitted terracing, are to allow temp supports for roof trusses (identifiable on the LOR run through video as red columns similar to the tower cranes) and crawler cranes to move along the stand.

There is a bottom section to go in yet.

Further to this, been mooching through videos and found the LOR recent one which shows a brief clip of the 3D design plan which I've grabbed these from...

The yellow bits circled are the temp supports required for the roof trusses

Until seeing your post i didn't realise there was a date in the top left corner. That's really useful for us to keep tabs on schedule. Seems we are pretty much where we should be too which is nice.

That's not our original home.

We played on Stanley Park first, then pretty much where that petrol station is on Priory Road, before heading to Anfield.
