I'm on EE and I can sometimes get a call signal but I never get any sniff of data. It's probably for the best as I'd probably end up posting really depressing stuff on the match thread in here!
 


Smaller networks seem to be better - I switched from O2 this year (never, ever got signal/data) to iD Mobile (yeah, I'd never heard of them either) and I can get data/signal more or less any time there now. Also switched my kids to Talkmobile and they get data fine as well. I've been with Vodafone and O2 and got nothing previously.
 
The mobile network around Goodison is poor, certainly for data. The reciever can only hand off a limited number of connections as even the 5g network is essentially just 4g+. The receiver modules are still limited in input connections, but the output speed has been increased giving the feel of faster speeds.

True 5g networks uses reciever modules that can handle in excess of 5k concurrent connections using Maximum Input Maximum Output (MIMO) technology. That's more than 5x the current connections. BMD will have a network of recievers within the stadium linked up to a hardwired backhaul, hooking directly into the cities high speed fibre ring main. There is also Vodafones 5g mast within distance towards the Costco. This will be the first football stadium in the world to incorporate this technology to this scale.
Oh a hardwired backhaul, that is great news I have to say.
 

Hi.

My mobile coverage at Goodison is dire, particularly data. Has been for years.
Which network do you think has the best coverage at Goodison (if any)?

Goodison Park is where mobile phone and wifi signals go to die

I'm on EE and when it's 33% full in terms of people in the ground at Goodison Park, you don't get data signal. Only phone signal. SMS is intermittent. It was the same with O2 previously.
