Losing the will to live, despite the decent joke that we will have built a house around a door knocker by the time we finish Previous Message

The only club as opposed to sponsor branding on the West stand and terrace is the crests. That feels underwhelming and an opportunity missed as the original poster says. I find myself in agreement so await Jon’s disapproval Previous Message
Key branding points:
1) Re the Branding on the rooves: the "Hill Dickinson Stadium" logos are ultra-tack adhesive vinyl strips, which will be on both the East and West Stand rooves and will each measure about 100m by 7m.
2) Re the crests: the 5.6m wide x 5.7m high NE crest is being laid out as a metal template (in anthracite, like the facade interstitial panels). A translucent acrylic diffuser will be mounted on the metal templates which will appear white during the day and be lit up white at night. The lettering and feature outlies on the EFC Crest are all white, of course. However, there will NOT be any blue involved (as per the plans submitted to the LCC) on these crests on the brick facades, which will be on all 4 corners, at the N and S ends of both the East and West Stands.
3) you can see that they have installed the aluminium bracket mountings for the installation of the "Hill Dickinson Stadium " logo in the South Window in between two of the horizontal slim steels. The sign will be, like the crests, a translucent white acylic that will be lit up at night by white LED's. It'll be about 71m wide and 5m tall.
4) We can expect to see them erect aluminium frames on the mansard rooves of the E and W stands which will support 57 m wide by 4m tall "Hill Dickinson Stadium" logos, finished in a white translucent acrylic that will be lit by white LED's behind the acrylic. On the E stand it'll mean the sign will be from one edge of the mansard roof windows to the other. Previous Message
and seems to know about the stadium construction, the views at the end of this video are what the stadiume will look like on the south and west.

Who is managing much of the internal fit out about whether he’d heard anything about external fit, particularly the Western Terrace as seen from the river and Wirral. He was not aware of anything beyond the two crests due to be installed on the West stand but he did stress that was not the area he was managing. I’d hope we would have some more branding lined up to be visible from the river but it is the kind of thing that can be sorted later relatively easily through planning if it is not in the day one finish.

Cycling along Egremont front this morning and was dissapointed to see the stadium still without any outside identification relating to everton.
The side adjacent to the river should be emblazoned with Everton and the club crest.
Not sure if they are planning on this but missing a trick if they don't as there was a a rather large cruise ship docked within spitting distance.
