    Thank you for responding to my question and mentioning me. Really appreciated. I live in Littlehampton, about 15 miles from Brighton. My first love has always been Everton despite my Dad encouraging me to follow Brighton, often go to the Amex but try and come up to Goodison once or twice a season. Unbelievably excited to visit the new stadium, also want to make a weekend of my next visit rather than just coming up to watch the football. So much of Liverpool I haven't experienced yet. Thanks again

    • @davidbadcock2225
      @davidbadcock2225 18 дней назад +2

      I think it's a mixture. The one at the centre-back of the South Stand is where the approved plans showed one to be, whereas the lower corner ones are not where the plans showed them to be. I'd certainly agree that it's a likely plan for cameras to pan across from those positions so that CGI can interpret and reproduce 3D views for whatever reason, such as Season Ticket Choice.

    Hi Nick
    I love the stadium and it will be sad to leave Goodison Park at the end of the season but it will be great to move and watch Everton play at the Bramley Moore Dock next season.
    Not only to watch football. I think it would be nice to watch NFL, men's rugby, women play football and rugby play at the new stadium.
    Keep up the good work.

    • @andrewlindsay9846
      @andrewlindsay9846 18 дней назад +1

      Much more likely to get rugby games than NFL. Spurs stadium was custom built to include changing rooms that fit their 53 man squads in. When Wembley host NFL each team gets 2 football chasing rooms with the warmup room in between for each squad. Even when the walls are removed they still complain about lack of space. The sight line of the touchline also means that the first 6 rows would be removed from sale and covered up as you can’t see past the squad of players on each touchline. Sight lines aren’t impacted at spurs as the pitch roles out with means they play on a pitch 2 metres below the first row of seats

      Nope. They’re temporary cameras for certain live televised games, but only if the broadcaster wants them. Ped from Toffee TV was told this by the club. Those seats they’ll have to remove won’t be season tickets - if the broadcaster wants the temporary cameras, the club won’t sell those tickets for that game so they can remove the seats. I’m not happy about it, but that’s the arrangement and the TV deal funding is very important for the club, and they have to abide by the broadcasters agreement.

      It's a fair question. I can't confirm or deny what the intentions are.
      There weren't statues indicated for placing on the front section of the two-tiered blue-glazed benches in the approved plans but it was indicated there'd be some forms of EFC branding or memorabilia.
      Having said that, there were articles in 2020 that suggested that some form of statues-with-incorporated-benches would be installed on site (type into your browser "Proposed statue designs at Bramley Moore Dock Stadium, Liverpool Echo")
      I think we probably have to wait and see what happens in the EFC Customisation phase.

      @davidbadcock2225 18 дней назад +1

      J: yes, I'd agree. In the proposals in the plans, it suggested that they were going to install fencing, and the wind-baffle panels, that had imagery incorporated. It'd be an expensive process, I think as it would require controlled cutting and etching of a stable metal material. If they end up applying banners, I guess the advantage is that it would be cheaper to keep changing them according to circumstances but then they could apply banners in front of the imaged fence panels anyway for the best of both worlds. It does eem like an opportunity missed.

    Hi Nick, another great and informative video. This is not a criticism but I wonder why they chose such a light, new looking brick for the stadium build rather than a darker one to match the surrounding dock buildings like the Tobacco warehouse, Titanic Hotel and the Pumphouse. If they were trying to emulate these then surely a darker colour would have more effect?

    • @barryjones8322
      @barryjones8322 17 дней назад

      They did lots of testing at the outset on the weathering of the bricks due to English heritage and the UNESCO status. I’m sure this has been taken into account and once weathered will loose the ‘new’ look.

      Jamie: Re the stones, the early-doors imagery showed that "The Everton Way" (on the South Concourse) will have "EVERTON" spelled out and in between the lettering there will be large Legends' Stones and the individual personailsed memorial stones in between those. There may also be statues incorporated with benches along the south perimeter overlooking Nelson Dock, between the large wind-baffles. Having stated all that, the detailed plans will have changed frequently due to the initial over-subscription and there have been 3 periods of subscription with extra room created for all the stones.

Just a question about the back of the North Stand , is there more space , than how it looks on screen for when fans are all leaving following the match , there doesn't look alot of room for a full stand spilling out and everyone having to walk the same way . In reality there maybe alot of space , but it looks a bit tight with the businesses just behind.

      Not an issue. The only turnstiles outside the north stand are in the north east corner and are for the away fans. All the home fans who will sit in the north and west stands will exit via the tunnel under the mezzanine and will leave via Everton Way (under the south stand)

      Steve: the Away Fans are the only ones that will need to use any of the access under the overhang of the North Stand but only the short stretch to Gate 24 at the NNE corner and will certainly vacate along the roadway to the NE corner Tower Gate.
      Home GA Fans who have seats in the Lower Tier of the North Stand will use Gates 22 and 23 at the ENE corner of the stadium.
      Home GA fans who have seats in the Upper Tier of the North Stand will use either gates at the ENE as described or in the main, Gates 1 and 2 over at the WNW corner under the Mezzanine. They will go to and from those gates using the South and West Concourses. Security and Stewards will not be allowing any Home Fans to be walking along the North Concourse.

The scheme includes affordable and social housing, a community health and medical centre, residential care, an enterprise building, a new education centre, offices, community-focused retail, three residential towers and a park.”

    Another great video, Nick, I've watched your videos from day one, mate. The stadium is looking fantastic, i can't wait for us to move now. Quick question mate, will the black cable tray that runs from the easten roof hatch to the solar panels be having a cover fitted to match the rest of the roof?I hope so because it really stands out and is driving my OCD up the wall! Lol! Only messing, but it does kind of spoil the flow of the roof. Cheers Nick.

      Jonathan: Peter, who works with SIS, states that there will be a separate small electric stitcher that will do along the edges of the pitch area, as this diesel-powered double-ended stitcher is not quite manoeuvrable enough at the edges and corners. The seats are as close as they can get legally.

      It's so international games can be hosted at the stadium. There has to be a minimum distance from the fans to the pitch. The fans are further away tha. Places like Goodison, Anfield, Stamford Bridge etc. All the new builds are set back for the reason I said above. I think Everton fans got mislead when they were told the fans will be right on top of the pitch.

      @@rosse6705 Rosse, apologies for a moment of pedancy and disagreement but I don't think it's right to claim any misleading. Like any member of the public, fans have a habit of misinterpreting the written word or leaning towards their own bias. I think you'll find the brief was to make sure that the seating was as close as possible to the pitch.
      Some will think that means literally to the pitch-side but in reality all it means is as close as it can be legally. That is still as good as it can get. The angle of rake is also maximised to create the closed-in intimidatory effect. So, they have created the maximum 'closeness' that is allowed. That is not misleading but a point to be applauded.

    Nick, the gabion wall at the NW corner of the Mersey Wall has been there since the build started. It is Peel Group's property. EFC installed concrete base walls at their BMD perimeter, which look a bit like those you see as crash barriers on motorways a long while back too. They applied metal mountings to the concrete bases a few months ago and they've added white panels to those to hide the ugly Mersey Wall.

The seats affected will not be season-ticket holders' seats and IF the Broadcasters want the extra camera positons for any matches the seats will be removed on those occasions and the seats not sold, of course.
      In the short-term they may well be setting them up to do as you say but it will be an occasional feature in the future on a permanent basis, if you get that permanent-temporary process.
