New Everton Stadium Discussion

[Wat Tyler]

I get my news about our new stadium off the rednoses, they’re utterly obsessed with it.

It says metal detectors will be in use and no bags bigger than A4 allowed so dont know how that will work

Is that for the perimeter though? Or for the ground.

You would assume its for the ground.

I think it would be fitting to invite somebody from the Methodist church to the opening game. We are a church team when all is said and done.

to be honest, with St Luke' being a big part of Goodison I was always thinking a chapel in the ground like Barcelona have would be a nice touch

Sure it said through the openings at Regent St

WHEN This happens will you throw yourself at the mercy of this forum and admit you were totally wrong and out of order to question our Uzbekistan overlord and his accountant

No, I'll say that I'm surprised they've pulled it off. That's because they deserve - as a club - no credit fir 20 years of broken promises.

Is 3 yrs a long time to build this ?... I have no clue on these matters ... how long did spurs take ?

You can't really compare as the groundwork is a bit different! I think Spurs was around three years in the end anyhow after the issues they had with the safety systems. 2016 to April 2019, despite it looking ready for September 2018.

The site works are likely to be more complicated here, but 3 years would be considered fairly standard.

Once the site works are completed, the actual structure will seem to go up very quickly. Then the last year will drag by comparison as its all internals and finishing work that you won't actually see progressing.

Re, the beer; don't mean tesco, but who sells the most locally? Witherspoons?
Just co-opt them for all the bars. They'll just look at their own figures...so many pumps for Lager, so many for cider, so many for Guinness, well best double them for speeds sake,
Sorted

Yep.remembet that one. This one was a fairly newish pub prob built when the 60s flats went up.in netherfield rd. It was set back from the road. Think it was between netherfield rd and great homer street. It's still there seen it a while ago but I'm sure it's an undertakers now

The Joker?

That takes me back to managing at wetherspoons when I was younger.. spreading a bit of wd40 onto the top of toilet cisterns to ruin the coke that the Saturday bellends used to take in the bogs..

I bet you are fun at parties

The groundworks isn't a bit different it's a lot different
The place is so old no one know what's down there.

A lot of mud and shi sludge, plus every penny or other object that was dropped or fell off a ship or dock.
