ALL CLEAR NOW
Sunderland Daily Echo-Tuesday 11 May 1937
Everton F.C have brought ff their finest deal. Though they have taken part in transfer in which highly-priced players have figured, the club derived more satisfaction than any international's arrival or departure could provide when they gained possession of a house in Gwlady's Street which borders their ground, Goodison Park. This house, which was occupied long after the others in the row had been pulled down threatened to hold up the building of Everton's new double-decker stand. Arrangements have, however, now been made to transfer the tenant, and the house will shortly meet the same fate as its companions. Work on the new stand, which will contain seating accommodation for 4,000 spectators and which with standing room, will bring the ground's capacity up to 80,000, began this morning. Part of the stand will be ready in time for the start of next season, while November will see its completion.
