They're the fucking builders...who else is at fault? Was Daniel moonlighting as a fire suppression engineer?

"hertyid: Last weekend I was with club officials being taken around the stadium, I know these people and trust them. They were very much of the opinion the stadium would be ready. End of last week it became clear there were some major issues around the fire and evacuation systems. Mace came to Levy yesterday and basically said “we got a problem”. It then became clear it was impossible to hold the test events which meant we couldn’t be ready in time for Liverpool. All thee people saying “you could always tell by looking at the stadium it woild never be finished” are spouting rubbish I’m afraid. Everything else is on time and the stadium would have been complete. There will be no cost to the club, Mace bear responsibility and there are LADs in place, although they will likely try and push down to a subcontractor."

They should hold it at The London Stadium just to show all the moaners how much worse it could have been.
No mate they pressed them intensely, really high up the pitch and countered when they had the chance to. Don't know how anyone who watched those games could think liverpool didn't press them lol.
Took this from SSC....it's all Greek to me...I know the BCO is probably the council's Building Control Officer...
"I was on site last week and witnessed a loop being witnessed.
They are at the point where they can offer halfish of the loops (c. 70 of 140) to the commissioning manager to witness (i.e. they say they have tested themselves). The commissioning manager (who as it's life safety has to witness 100% of the loops) sign off sheets would then be part of the pack submitted to the BCO for sign off, along with Tyco's own certificate that it's in line with the BS. The BCO can then choose how much he wants to witness before signing the fire systems off as safe, largely depending on the quality of install and testing he's seen to date.
The BCO's visit the friday before last was enough of a shambles to result in them saying we're not coming back until we've got 100% of the certs from the commissioning manager (which isn't unusual). However the backs are so against the wall at the stadium that when you string this 'back to backing' of programming activities out i.e. Tyco having to prove and document that they are fully done first, then Core witnessing the lot before the BCO will even look at it, then the final test events having to be after this sign off, plus the realisation of how far back Tyco really are it's become clear that mid September is pie in the sky...as many had suspected."

Spot on.
Liverpool literally have ONE way of playing. Unfortunately, that way is a pretty good way to beat Man City.
Agreed a lot of what a club is is the fans, but equally its where they are from. Why do you think we dig Woolwich out so much? Why do you think MK Dons are despised so much?
nope just thought it was strange people thought it was so unbelievable that a contractor on one of the most highly anticipated and watched construction projects wouldn't be reluctant to admit that they can't deliver on time.
If Levy knew all of that would happen and used it to fuck over the fans he's a criminal genius and should give up running a football club to take over the world.
I haven't the skills to do a picture mock up, though isn't he a scar and grey jumpsuit away from looking like Doctor Evil anyway?
*edit. found this.
Aren't they the fuckers tasked with building the stadium? Ultimately I don't see who else is to blame.
A comment to think about from KUMB;

At least they won't be walking into their new gaff and seeing a load of scaffolding underneath their new seats.

I think there was a very real danger of the sub-arcs overlooping, meaning that the native C and D cache drives would have to be reflushed.Lost me at the first line, mate.
Witnessed a loop being witnessed...
On a build of this size, the pinion rods cannot exceed the main under-stanchion, that's pretty much construction 101
