Test event next month!

Wow, this got real quickly.

Starting with an U18's game so least we might kick off the new stadium with a win for once

Did he criticise it or just come back on board and said nothing?

What's next Dave ? Was Meis caught with a bottle of Budweiser during Covid ?
Let it go his design was excellent and from what I can make out, the wave vanished because the sixty seater stadium was rejected as, too expensive, Historic England and Co complaining over height restrictions and Everton's sayso. What could Meis do stamp his feet.

Ironically he did complain after being removed

and I'm sure Dave had issues with that aswell. Granted I could go over a look for quotes but it makes little odds to the current statement - he did complain.

Ive 'issues' with the ground myself, it would be nieve to suggest everyone thinks 100% the best from it. I think the 'single tier' south stand is misleading as its split upper and lower - im not gonna die on that hill however

Wow, not long to wait.

Are you ok? Presumably you have changed your opinion of Baines for being brave enough to speak out in public on the shambles that Martinez was making of the first team?

 

[Trowel]

Good to see them getting the safety certs done early, expect this allows the possibility of the stadium hosting events from early summer.
