New Everton Stadium

[AndyRJ]

Maybe to do with the fact that the two end stands are steel structures but the sides are concrete? I'm sure somebody with structural engineering knowledge will have the answer.

Those movement joints are positioned to seperate the north and south stands from the east and west.

As I understand it, all the stands have been designed to be independent from each other, mainly due to the risk of differential settlement caused by the silt material that was left in place before the dock was infilled.

The north and south stands straddle the old dockside AND the infill so there is a risk that these would settle differently compared to the east and west which sit wholly within the infilled dock area.

The more I watch these drone videos and see the beautiful stadium taking shape, the more I realise just what an absolute stunner she is.

I know there are differing opinions and everyone has their own style preferences. Most of us would have liked the stadium to have had a slightly bigger capacity. But looking at the recently extended Anfield and comparing the two, I know which one I like more even accounting for my blue tinted specs. Some comparisons below...

Some subtle aesthetic differences, but I'm sure you'll agree that BMD probably just shades it

Their ground is Frankensteins monster...and absolute abomination.

It will look OK, when finished and painted.

Anyone notice that in the past six months or so the cult of the Branch Kloppians have started releasing pics of Snake Mountain with the Mersey in the background.

They aren't worried though.

Anfield: without a shadow of a doubt they ugliest most expensive ground in the PL.

They've ruined it since we left...and that was only built out of balsa wood.

Some of you will know the US sports custom of hanging the (supersized) jerseys of retired great players from the rafters of their stadium or otherwise displaying their names around the stadium in a ‘Ring of Honour’. How would we feel about doing this at BMD to honour our Hall of Fame players? Big Nev guarding the home (North) goal. Dixie intimidating opposing defences rising high above the away (North) goal. Kendall, Harvey, Ball patrolling midfield. Thoughts?

With cheesy asending ice hockey organ music too ?

I'm in.

When you think about it our ground is perfectly placed. They'll never be able to take a picture of the Mersey in the background again ha.

Trying to get used to the idea of not having an obscured view - with those pillar blindspots where you have to temporarily remember where the players were as you track them along the pitch.
