New Everton Stadium Discussion

"Not on my doorstep," is an extraordinarily Tory viewpoint. Not one I'd expect from yourself.

It's a health and safety issue. It's going to be a problem if helicopters or drone's are going to be circling that stadium.

The nearest windmill is half a kilometre away.

I think we're good. It hasn't downed any drones yet.

126 feet high.

Let's put it this way, if the stadium had come first then that turbine would be a lot further away than it is.

They have some mad invisible lazers which can shut down drones now.

no

Not for 1 minute did I believe that ballot was a fair ballot.

iirc, about 17000 season ticket holders voted Yes, 8 or 9000 No
Another 8 to 10,000 'floating spectators' had no vote, as did many ex-pats.
Cherry picking or selective might cover it.

Whatever you do, don't read this article:

How do you know this? Surely it is the value of the materials purchased and the work that has been done. Otherwise there would just be a pile of sand in a dock and the other materials stacked on the quayside.

You know what I mean. The progress of a construction project cant be judged by spend alone and, a construction project is much more than just the site work itself. A £500m project thats spent £100, isn't simply 1/5 of the way though.

OK now you're being daft

I'm absolutely sure this was never considered in any risk assesment

I think we can all agree though that it could do with not being there.

Pretty sure it'll be fine:

It's not a dock anymore.

Doesn't alter the fact it is called Bramley Moore Dock

Don't you get bored constantly looking for negatives in everything? You're clutching at straws now.
