Topic: Everton - The 777 Unflushables

[Black Bull Nova]

Ok, a question from someone who doesn't know the area and is unlikely to visit Liverpool any time soon (though I did get to see it as a teenager): is there actually a sewage smell? I know that not every type of waste treatment plant creates much of an odor.

I have not noticed it myself but I am aware there are some awful fewms

Not all the time. In the colder months I've not noticed it, but in the warmer months it's sometimes quite sickening when I've driven past. The windows go up pretty fast. I sometimes get car service items from Euro Car Parts nearby and I've smelt it there at times too. As the weather warms up I'm sure the smell will be more noticable. Well, if it ever does warm up, that is.

[CHOPPER]

When all is said and done, it would be an absolute shame for the league, the city, the wider area and for football in general, if Everton didn’t go down.

Scousers untide.

Over time the smell will settle into the stadium, so when it doesn't stink, it'll still stink

That is so true. Before they sorted the smell from shitworks by ours out, I worked in an office not too far from it and even on days when there was no smell, you'd walk into reception and you could smell it in the walls. Even with all the work done to sort the smell, sometimes we'll go to the retail park near it and it'll stink.

Mondays driving into work over the Barton Bridge were the worst, that horrible cabbage smell, must have been Sunday dinner disposal shits.

Which is why they are supposedly pumping a scent in

700 local residents sued the owners of the plant in 2021 claiming the smell was that bad they couldn't let their kids play out in the summer. Some remedial work has been done but it still stinks when they open the gates. It is that bad that they have agreed not to open the gates on match days. If only Everton would promise to do the same.

This is New Brighton, imagine waves like that hitting the dock wall outside BMD on a match day

I remember them building a state of the art shopping mall at New Brighton. I also remember cars floating around the car park at high tide.
They had to retro fit steel flood gates.

The Mersey has the 2nd highest tidal range of any River in the Country. When you think that the Thames with a smaller tidal range has installed flood barriers then it doesn't bode well for Everton.

This was the St Nicholas Place in 1990.

[TepidT2O]

Their statement yesterday was interesting. Basically confirming that they still don’t have funds to complete the stadium.

Quite an achievement

The smell of shit will be embedded in the concrete.

Why the heck would you be that stupid?

[JRed]

Well, there will definitely be shite football inside the stadium, to match the smell.

I remember that storm, New Brighton open air swimming pool was flooded so bad [sea water got into the foundations] in that storm it had to be demolished

[afc tukrish]

Easy to see why Arrigo Sacchi's hair turned white...

This is Michael Chong talking about BMD.

He added: "We are actually probably building one of the most complex projects in one of the most difficult locations.

"It's in a world heritage site, it's in a floodplain, it's in a docklands environment which is used to control the Leeds-Liverpool canal there - and we literally have to raise the footprint of the stadium by over a metre to create a new level if you want to call it that, where hopefully the experts will have got it right.

"The rest of Liverpool could flood but the football stadium should be ok!"

I thought it was Howard Kendall looking for the bottle of Scotch he had stashed.

Looks like a friendly monster popping up from the depths.

Commentator on the Everton-Bournemouth match seems to infer the 2nd PSR is coming early next week

[gerrardisgod]

Joint worst run of form with Mike Walker’s rabble of a side

[FiSh77]

What a Seamus

[jillcwhomever]

I know this is a daft question but what on earth was Pickford doing?

[Ray K]

3 and a half months since their last league win.

[WhereAngelsPlay]

He was doing the Pickford, it's a crazy new dance that has an ever evolving number of moves.

Genius really.

[Statto Red]

They are lucky theirs 4 teams worse than they are, thats unless they get another points deduction.

[jacobs chains]

3 and a half months since their last league win.

Nothing that another points deduction wont cure.

It'll certainly help ward off their biggest problem - COMPLACENCY.

[WhereAngelsPlay]

Any chance it will spread to the Old Trafford tonight?

Hard to say, it's spread has baffled the worlds greatest minds, could be in the water, I think it's the boos.

[thaddeus]

Was the own goal as good as it sounds?

[StevoHimself]

Haven't won a game since December and yet they'll stay up quite comfortably. The bottom of the league is a bad joke.

[WhereAngelsPlay]

Was the own goal as good as it sounds?

Was a worldie.

[jillcwhomever]

Fingers crossed then, I feel like a good laugh tonight.

To be fair to Coleman at his age it is easy to forget what you went into the penalty area for.

Imagine spending £750m on a new Stadium and 'hoping' the experts have got it right.

They should be thankful for getting their points deduction. The only good run of form they've had all season came off the back of it. More than offset what they ended up getting taken off.
