News shared ahead of Everton’s next test event at Bramley Moore-Dock

It’s looking ever closer that the Toffees manager will be visiting Bramley-Moore Dock, as David Moyes refused visiting until Everton are safe.

Not only will the hope be that Everton are in the Premier League next season, but also that the new ground is in working order.

This new protocol will help this matter, as the next event will test something involving 25,000 people.

According to BBC Sport journalist Giulia Bould, An evacuation exercise will be performed at the new Everton stadium as part of 2nd test event on Sunday.

Around 25,000 fans will be asked to exit the stadium during the 2nd half so emergency services can monitor how it works.

It will help authorities have a look at how easy it will be for transport to be managed should anything go wrong during the game, showing good signs for fans.

What game is taking place for Everton’s second test event

Of course, the whole point of these test events is to see the stadium’s operation systems running smoothly, but fans will want a taste of the action taking place.

As Goodison Park is coming to a close with just four home games left of the season, fans will be picturing in their mind a new playing surface after so long.

Rival fans will have their view, and it seems as though rivals clubs do already, as Arne Slot joked about Everton’s new stadium after a Liverpool fan scored the first ever goal.

Hopefully they’ll be no Reds fans lurking in either team as Everton Under-21s play host to Bolton Wanderers B team in the second test event this week.

After losing the first one, the academy would love to get their first win at the new ground, and hopefully, everything goes swimmingly with the evacuation exercise.
