New Everton Stadium

[Neiler]

@Neiler according to this it’s 20th December. There was a drone video from last night or this morning saying it would be 8 days. I thought that was far too soon myself.

Thanks mate!

Actually makes sense they work on it up to Xmas - then a new project for the year for LOR and club can start the fit out at the start of the new year to.

Saw that. No chance it's getting handed over in 8 days unless it's a partial handover.

Might not look it, but still lots to do externally. 20th December would give them a chance of getting the external works completed.

That being said, wouldn't surprise me if the handover wasn't a complete one anyway. Fully expect LoR to be around into the new year completing bits and bobs.

I wonder if, seeing as the bar will be open for 2.5 hours after the match, you'll be able to stay behind and watch a live 5.30pm Saturday game? That'd be good.

This is what Lor guy told us today for clarity

Be good if they opened to show us playing away also. I think a few might go for that

47 days!

Boss that mate, how did you manage to get a tour of it if you don't mind me asking?

My daughter and family are part of liverpool kayak/canoe club in Collingwood dock,
They done a dock clean up on the kayaks around Bmd a couple of months ago and this was the reward,
I got in as a +1 lord be praised
I've got loads of pics an vids but i don't want to mess things up for the kayak club.
Twelve of us on the tour,
Maybe able to post the induction video which is good

 

[John from Bootle]

You do know this has probably made grown men cry. Reckon a few are sat in a dark corner now, berating themselves for not having the foresight to join the kayak club

Spot on that mate and it's nice when a good deed is rewarded as well

47 days!

Until our next win?

Until they sack Dyche?

Until the takeover?


Oh, until the handover. Oh. Sigh.

What was your favourite thing you seen today mate which proper gave you the "wow" feeling?

Spotted at the women’s game

For a bit of fun I was able to add 9 more rows and extend the corners up a touch, whilst keeping the roof the same. It's roughly 4m taller with an extra capacity of around 2500.

Of course it would mean we lose the reflection from Nelson dock with the glass vertical.

Whether the supporting structure can take the extra weight is a different conversation altogether.

Meis out, The Binman Chronicles in!

Great work that, and very interesting results.

I wonder why Everton didn't do that, or I wonder why was the no. of rows in the South Stand reduced from 68 to 60 when it's clearly not due to the overall heigh. Surely a closer roof to the stand wouod have been better too.
