@@cp-overview thanks much appreciated
Liking the longer form videos with Phil
Thanks appriciate that comment
It makes a nice change to just chat about everything rather than just describe what I can see. They will be a regular feature now 👍
Quite a few trees being planted on site today. (Tuesday 16th)
Amazing drone video other coaches leaving Titanic Hotel and on their way to the ground and thank you ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video thank you
There was no dock runnings across the west side, it was open
Look good when it’s finished quite a bit to do
people from the other side of the Mersey say it looks like a big new tesco going up
It might yet turn into a big new Tesco and never stage a Football match.
If Everton go into administration, which is starting to look more and more probable daily, what happens with the Stadium? I can remember Coventry being locked out of theirs for about seven years while their financial woes mounted. Is there a real possibility here that it could be years, if ever, that Everton play a home game in this stadium? The only viable buyer if offered up for sale by the administrator would be Liverpool. And with the supposed revenue opportunities this stadium poses, What's the genuinely non piss taking possibility that the worst nightmare scenario occurs. That the stadium gets sold to Liverpool in a cut price deal? LFC themselves would be unlikely to move in, in the short term. But they could allow Everton to remain as Tennent in a ground share with Liverpool's women's team? It would be the ultimate humiliation but the reality that this stadium is going to fall out of Everton's hands must be starting to become a consideration.
1) At 1:03 mins - 3:00 mins: Yes, there will be unperforated aluminium cladding applied, like coving. Yes, those struts are to what the aluminimum panels will be attached. They have yet to fit in the 'struts' right the way around the edge, including in front of the missing 2 top glass sections. Please note that there are actually 3 glass sections missing in the North Window, with the third one being the very bottom right small triangular piece. The struts are placed in front of the glass sections, which is why the struts have not been applied in front of the missing 2 top glass panels. As an aside, they were clearly (pun!) damaged and either sent back for repair or new replacements are due to be made. Part of the delay in that will be due to Alucraft Ltd going into administration and it's not difficult to imagine the arguments LoR will be having about who is responsible for what, with the Alucraft Administrators involved now, even before LoR then decide how to get the glass work completed. To some degree the issue will be the same for the completion of the South Window.
2) At 3:00 mins, the non-standard edge pieces of barrel-cladding were constructed in those shapes and they were clearly seen on the ground in that form last week. No way are ANY of the pieces cut to shape on site. They are all manufactured off-site to very strict specifications. I can be fairly sure that there became a sensible window of opportunity to use the crane and under-the-hook jig to finish that NE corner, whilst all the wet-concreting was necessary for the NW mezzanine area. The planning algorithm will have brought that little side-plan forward for efficiency, as the whole leadtime timetable and schedules will flex after inevitable weather delays to certain key, bottleneck jobs.
3) At 3:18 mins, the talk about the towers. Yes, they hold the air-ducts from the satellite kitchens and hospitality lounge.
4) At 4:00 mins: yes, the top roof AND truss walkways are accessed via the stair tower. It has a sister, mirror-image one at the NW end of the West Stand. You can tell where they are located from above by the fact that there is a 'hatch' opening at the tops. It's how the roofers get up onto the roof.
5) At 4:05 mins: there isn't a hole in the main Portal Roof. It's not yet finished, even if the appearance annoys people currently. It also will have a form of metal coping applied.
6) At 4:55 mins: the discussion about the blue-glass coated concrete flags depicting the water. They will appear differently according to the brightness of the light and whether they are wet or not. The strip at the edge of the dock-water area next to the old granite Coping Stones, is designed to depict the small refractive waves that would have been created when larger waves met the various wall stones of the dock wall. The area of the old dock-water will become gradually darker the nearer to the East Stand, i.e. more blue-glass in the mix than the outer region.
7) At 6:43 mins: not sure if the use of 'posh' is about the seats themselves or the people from the executive boxes/hospitality lounges but I don't THINK the seats placed there are different from the others, as they're located in the lower tiers of that area. It's difficult to tell when they're stacked sideways and covered.
8) At 7:45 mins: you can see the rails that create a gap between seating areas, for the stewards to martial. At 7:45 mins, central to that view is the ground-floor vomitory. Above that and slightly off-centre to it, travelling all the way up to the right-hand end of the North Stand Accessibility Platform in the Tier-Break is the 'extra' railing to the NE of the Home fans stairway. Towards the right at this time-stamp you can see the symmetrical extra railing that leads up to the left-hand end of the East Stand Accessibility Platform. The East Stand rail is central at 8:04 mins.
9) At 8:27 mins: yes, correct, Away fans will be only in the lower tier in the NE Corner for League games. For other matches such as Cup games (and, please god, one day EFC in European matches) there will be additional seating on the Upper Tier of the NE Corner.
10) At 9:09 mins: yes, they have dug down a bit along the SSW edge, which can be seen by the depth of the front of the concrete riser of the bottom terrace but it's not the proper pitch laying. It's just to start setting in the main drain(s) and services that will go around the circumference. The main pitch laying is not due to start until May.
11) At 10:00 mins: Yes, it will have seed BUT it'll be an up-to-date EPL Hybrid Pitch, meaning it has a bed with sand, with drains and water-piping, then a layer of plastic skeleton on top and that will have predominantly sand (up to 95%) and artificial grass (polyethylene) making up about 5%, and it's into that the Rye-grass seed will be 'inserted. i.e. the rye-grass seed won't just be lying on top. Seagulls won't be particularly interested in grass but pigeons would be. I imagine they'll use bird-scarers, if necessary.
12) At 10:50 mins, for a while, and talk of the roof colouring. This needs a whole discussion of its own (apologies for technical language and no Subscript facility on here)
A: The Standing-seam roof is naturally-anodised aluminium. Pure Aluminium (Al) naturally oxidises by oxygen in the air. It's unavoidable, naturally. When a negative ion material such as a single oxygen comes up against a positive ion material, such as the metal aluminium, they bond to become AL2O3. This has an appearance of a slightly dulled or matt metal surface and the process will continue until the point where all of the aluminium surface has turned into a layer of AL2O3. Therefore, it is entirely normal for there to be slight differences between reels of aluminium, depending on how long they have been exposed to air.
B However, the barrel-cladding is an Anodised Aluminium material, rather than Naturally-anodised, which means that the aluminium is chemically treated in electrolyte cells (like a big battery) to apply the oxidised layer where the manufacturer wants it and it allows the surface to be pitted with colour and protective layers on top of that to stop the colour fading. Hence the barrel-cladding looks bright and shiny, whereas the top roof looks a matt finish.
13) At 13:31 mins: the south end of the mezzanine has a creamy coloured screed on it and they are due to lay wide-edged differently-coloured granite setts on there, not concrete flags (unless the plan has changed) but it most definitely won't be the dock-water effect flags.
14) At 13:54 mins: the dock-water effect concrete flags will only be laid on the parts of the West Terrace that are at the same level as the top pf the old Dockwall Granite Coping Stones and, obviously, only where the dockwater used to be. There is going to be a Lower Promenade along this front before you get to the new water-channel. So, at this moment in time, please note the following from the Still at 13:54 mins. From almost the bottom of the screen going upwards towards the old Granite Coping Stones is a concrete platform, Edge A. From the bottom corner of Edge A, the next edge to the platform, Edge B, goes inwards at a diagonal towards the terracing, but it corners to create Edge C, which then travels off the screen bottom-centre-left, and which runs parallel to the terracing. All of that concrete platform between the Granite Coping-Stones, the Terracing and Edges A, B and C will have a layer of the dock-water concrete flags laid on it. Away and below Edges B and C will be the steps and ramps down to the Lower promenade and that will be laid in the same colour of granite as the mezzanine. The northern end has exactly the same mirror-imaged structures, under the sand.
15) At 15:34 mins, that is an area of screed, as on the mezzanine. The plans show it will be laid with granite, in time. The structures in the middle of that area are not obvious but in the plans it's meant to be a viewpoint area, where people will walk about to look back at the stadium with several benches there too. They could just be bicycle stands.
16) If you look the other side of the bridge, to the south, you will see another of the same areas, also meant as a viewpoint.
17) In between those two areas, ON the southern Water Channel bridge, you will note there are several of the Standing-seam roof aluminium rolls, which appeared last week.
18) Further to the above, and the fact that the crane and the Mill container are parked on the SW concourse (see back at 13.56 mins, or even better at 22:18 mins, when you can see into the back of the Mill container) is in line with the fact that, as discussed, at 19:44 mins, yes, the last layer of insulation was laid out last week ready for the skin to be applied but the weather delayed it.
19) At 20.31 mins: yes, those glass sections on the floor are the non-standard pieces for the top row, abutting the roof. The 'missing' pieces for the south east end are still not present on the southern concourse.
20) At 22:30 mins and the repeat discussion about the water edge etc. No, please see the earlier comments about the Lower Promenade.
21) At 24:00 mins, re the polycarbonate. You should note that they have installed it on the North and South stands because the bottom edge of the polycarbonate can be finished/capped over the water gulley that travels east-to-west. On the East and West Stands that can't happen. The Standing-seam roof, which is all laid E-to-W, has to be installed BEFORE the polycarbonate can be laid over the edge where they meet. So, yes, it DOES matter what order it goes on.
22) At 25:00, in short, the brick facades will weather much like the roofing material.
23) At 26.46 and the discussion about gates. NO, the new gates will NOT be inserted into the 'slots' of the Tower Gates. The old gates will remain as you see now, abutting the wall and with one edge in the slot. The new gates will be installed on the edges of the towers nearest the stadium. The gates have already been installed on the what will be the Northern, vehicular entrance. If you look at the northern Towers at gates at 29:05 mins, you will see how they are fitted.
24) At 28:46 mins those beds are just opportunistic plants, defined as 'weeds'. They haven't yet landscaped the earth-filled borders with the trees, tall grasses and other plansts on the plans.
25) At 29:25 mins, yes, those metal strips will remain. It's a straight cut down of the stones of the wall there, and the relaid stones are not keyed into the old wall, as such, so the cut-through's are, in a sense, self-supporting.
If you look at the seats in Goodison in the corporate area compared to the wooden seats behind it that’s why the term posh seats is used. The actual seats are leather and padded compared to wood that I sit on just behind it. I assume the seating in the corporate area will be better than the normal seats around the stadium so term posh seats is used by me
@@Philtymo Hi, Phil. All good. At some point the plush(?) seats will appear on the large shallow terraces in front of the Lounges/Boxes, for sure, but I don't THINK the ones stacked there just now are those.
