Everton have been plagued throughout this season of misery, yet have admirably held on to whatever glimmers of hope they have been given.
Whether it be Jarrad Branthwaite’s stunning displays at the back, or the run at the start of December which saw them win four on the spin in the Premier League, this is a fanbase starved of success and enjoyment, but relentless in their support anyway.
One of the big factors behind that unwavering following is the Bramley-Moore Dock stadium, which seems set to provide that light at the end of the tunnel for the club.
However, disaster may have struck despite progress still being made.
What’s the latest on Everton’s Bramley-Moore Dock stadium
That being said, it does seem like Everton’s Bramley-Moore Dock stadium is running smoothly given the latest update offered by Mister Drone UK.
This YouTube channel, which has been admirably relentless in its commitment to offering regular updates on the construction site, has detailed nearly every change made across the last few years.
As such, his popularity among Evertonians has surely grown.
Whilst the glasswork continues to offer a stunning visual, and the brickwork nears completion too, arguably the most contentious and current interest lies with the barrel cladding.
Fortunately, despite worries circulating in the media, it continues to creep across the east stand even if it has briefly stopped. Mister Drone UK theorises that the roof is still in need of some additional structural touches before work can continue.
Bramley-Moore Dock stadium contractor enters administration
Well, whilst it seemed like the new stadium was the sole shining light at the football club, there was always bound to be something that went wrong.
And with administration having been touted at Everton in general, given their seemingly worsening financial position, it is ironic that that is what occurred with the contractors employed to help administer the barrel cladding that is set to adorn the roof.
Although Alucraft Systems Ltd, the company in question, is one of four that form the Clarison Group which is providing the Toffees with this material, it still marks a worry from the outside looking in.
Fortunately, the other three firms are trading profitably, and therefore should have more than enough resources to help finish off by far their largest project.
The Bramley-Moore Dock stadium is expected to provide hundreds of new jobs should it transform the surrounding area as planned, and these kinds of organisations enlisted to help build it are just one of many cogs all of whom benefit from involvement in this historic project.
