The Talyer report? Always thought it was the Taylor report!
I’m here cause Jordan north is a burnley fan 🤣 I’m a fan of his podcast.
Great video
Nice video ❤
Turn the bloody music off
I worked for a major US entertainment client who was looking for building/offices in UK. I performed due diligence study of several sites. When we visited future site of Canary Warf Business Center BEFORE 1 Canada Square Existed in late 1980's with Olympia & York. There were MANY low income Families who lived there. When I asked how they intended to relocate everyone fairly... my ? "Sadly" went ignored.
You spoiled that piece with the last few comments ........fast forward to July '24 & those comments about the location & staying at Goodison look like they were .........stupid !!!!
I love villa I am a villa fan
is this my stadium??
Lol
Great vid mate
Video starts at 2:26
This is a great video Surprised you don’t have more subscribers
Interesting, but what was Terminal one please, I know that I have seen signs when I got off the train there. What has happened to it, and are they going to rebuild, and reopen it?
During the late 60s/early 70's, the pitch was moved significantly to the North, in order to accommodate the larger stand that replaced The Scratching shed... The Kop was rebuilt first, 60 feet behind the original terrace, and then the pitch was shifted Northwards.
It's SPION kop... pronounced 'spee-on'
Back in the day when the Canary Island was the biggest exporter of bananas to Europe and not the Dominican Republic.
I was wondering why Plantage looked so different from the rest!
That South Park clip caught me off-guard
Nasty music is irritating
COYS
They really don’t explain how it was built. Most old world buildings had a competition behind it. A lot of fluff in the story and stats but who actually built it? How many men? What tools? Horse and buggy? Where did all the material come from? How did they transport it? When did construction start/end? Bunch of nonsense in this video. Pay attention!
Can't win them all eh.

Interesting video but I don’t know where you found all those sandy beaches on Madeira!
Good question!
Cheers,
there are sandy beaches in Madeira,, like Calheta Machico, and more imported sand but sandy 😎
First time at vicarage road 2/1/1960 with my Dad happy memories
Thanks for sharing.
Matter of opinion if you live in Birmingham
Just stumbled across this and as a saddo who likes this sort of stuff it is fun to find any roads that are out of zone, for example the A88 near Falkirk which is entirely in zone 9! One thing you didn’t mention though is that motorways in England and Wales use a separate zoning system from the A/B roads, numbered 1-6, whilst in Scotland they simply replace the A road for the most part. This is why Britain has no M7 but has an M876.
I think they had pile drivers similar to ours, they had cranes and from crane to pile driver its not so far. Few hundred kilogram stone hammer on a rope and simple guide would do the job 100x faster than thousands workers with hammer. People back in the day were not do different that much they didnt like to do to much work.
Kind of shocking that "Mustache Man" didn't do anything with the Ubahn, considering how much his party loved massive public works projects and their competition with the commies, you would think he would have wanted a system to compete with Stalins amazing Metro system in Moscow...
Come on the bhoys and green
There was stories of a gypsy curse at elland back in the 60s & 70s .
in farke we trust. Mot.
I think you’ll find it’s pronounced S-p-i-o-n kop. An interesting video nonetheless. Though you need to work on the dodgy Yorkshire accent.
Thanks for keeping me on my toes Ian. Glad you enjoyed the video.
This is very informative but the music kiss it. Hard to understand for non native speakers.
Glad you enjoyed the video, thanks for the feedback.
Tifo football eat yer heart out. Great video, truly.
Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed the video.
That little Spare insert was hilarious!
Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed the video.
There’s a couple or errors here. First, the main reason why the U-Bahn dives underground after Nollendorfplatz (not Zoologischer Garten) has less to do with sewers than with Charlottenburg’s (then an independent city) resistance against elevated railways. Moreover, the East side of the city was never rich - generally speaker Berlin gets richer the more you move west. The area around Stalauer Tor was decidedly proletarian, and further to the east even more so.
Every day's a school day eh. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Explain This Theorists
??
This is mostly a brief history of Berlin, not so much U-Bahn. Your German pronunciations are also a bit weird - only about half are German, and the rest - English.
Not sure what video you're watching bud
But what about the later Hawswater Aquaduct?
Yes that was the sequel but Thirlmere was the og.
funny intro
Thanks very much!
Stopped watching just 30 seconds in as the narration is annoying
Bit harsh, I thought it was pretty good.
I thought it was pretty good too. No need for this negativity 👏
Found it decent personally. Try to say why and make your comment constructive instead of just having a go.

I appreciate the content, but please turn the music down. Thanks.
Thanks for the feedback!
The construction of the Sydney Opera House would be a good movie. The utter chaos that unfolded over the course of 14 years of construction, demolition and reconstruction is enough to make decent drama. They started working on the site before any plans were drawn. And started building columns for the roof before the roof was designed. This could have easily been a very costly mess, like many other mega projects.
Fascinating stuff, thanks for sharing!
Don't like how he said f off bfc

There's plenty of room for some new and much needed motorways in Norfolk and Cornwall
Will have to see if the asylum in Westminster would agree.
