New Everton Stadium

Incredibly sad news. Feel awful for the lad and his family, friends and colleagues.

I actually hope one of the stands or similar is named after him.
Would be a fitting tribute for what he has given.

The club are usually pretty good at off the field stuff so I am sure there will be some sort of tribute to him somewhere at the stadium once it's finished.

There'll be a lengthy pause on work there I'm sure so that the investigation can be carried out thoroughly. Gross negligence manslaughter can lead to pretty long jail times I think

lets not get ahead of ourselves here

This will cast a shadow over the build from now on in. Might have to give all the videos a skip for a while, if they even continue.

I'd expect the videos/drone footage will stop, certainly whilst the work is paused on site

I'm sure the unfortunate soul who lost their life would want us to continue celebrating this build going forward though and I agree with previously posted ideas about a permanent tribute/memorial

Depends on the investigation, if it was a tragic error/accident by the lad himself then it'll be back on soon.

If there's been a serious lapse within the works and other people are responsible then it will rightly be on hold for a while.

Not important right now though, thinking of his friends and family.

if the wording of the BBC Local News was correct, she said the police are assisting the HSE to investigate. If that is the case, the police aren't taking primacy (ie no corporate manslaughter considerations) but the HSE will still look at H&S matters. If criminal offences were suspected, the Police would be the primary investigating body.
It will be LoR under investigation as the Primary Contractors.
Either way, there wont be much info coming out as LoR will no doubt claim legal privilege

If someone has died the Police lead the investigation.

What an awful thing to happen. So sad. Rip. Hoping the club do some form of tribute.
