Congrats Toffees. You navigated that pretty well. I'm happy that we didn't get battered, but also that we tried to play the right way. Lots of 'minnows' try to lump it long against Prem opposition (sometimes to good effect), but we got it down...
Some of this (stock levels, staffing/training) should get sorted out with experience but the layout/flow will require quite a lot of data from actual use to see how it is deviating from modelling informing what can be done to alleviate it. That...
There were a lot of unhappy punters where I am in the South stand. The self service bit ran out ale and those who had been queuing for a beer were getting to the front of the queue only to be told they had run out. Don’t know why one of the staff...
There are no guarantees that this will happen. Safe-standing is still in a bit of a trial phase in the UK. Colin Chong hinted a while ago that he didn't think that it would ever be over 1:1. In anycase we reduced our original tread depths to...
The catering/drinks thing will surely sharpen up with time. Staff mostly looked shell-shocked to me, plus probably a lot more people wanting to try everything for novelty value etc. No Queing barriers made it all quite chaotic. The upper south...

- biggest away crowd (apart from finals) in my lifetime - maybe ever, not sure.
- our first visit to your lovely new...
Everything is relative I suppose. My oldest brother (born in 1945) used to say that when he was in school that nearly all of his classmates were blues, and reds were very much the minority. My youngest brother (born 1954) said that by the time he...
When I stood in my new vantage point and heard that drumbeat and that instant Goodison Roar, it was like my whole Evertonian life condensed into a few seconds, flashing before my eyes. The future wrapped in a million precious memories.....
Cheers Tom, at the moment I have no plans of taking my drone along on match days, after a skinfull I’d probably get arrested for taking out a load of fans in the plaza.
But in the words of good old Billy Liar…watch this space 😉
That's @ToffeeDan son. ToffeeDan was a great poster on here who passed away a few years ago. In fact, I think he was the first (or one of the first) to mention the docks as a potential site for our new stadium
Hope he's looking down as proud as...
