I just can’t get over Everton building three stadiums to help progress this city and Big Red thinking they can just doss in one like a box room sponging off our toil & sweat. They need to get out there and pay their way. And no more knocking down communities while they’re at it

Everton FC built Anfield? How very generous that people who paid the rent also built the ground. Now I see why their business acumen has been a wee bit lacking historically.

They didn't "build" Anfield ffs as it wasn't even theirs!. 

 

They played on Stanley park for six years after being formed in 1878. So played on rented land at Anfield between 1884 to 1892 when they decided to leave. 

 

They also had nothing to do with Liverpool being formed. If you look at the history of other clubs more often than not there is a disagreement between members of the board which leads to the breakaway and another club being formed. 

 

When Inter were formed several board members disagreed with other Milan board members about signing non Italian players so broke away and formed Inter so they could sign players from Switzerland. 

 

John Houlding formed Liverpool, an entirely new club by himself after Everton had spat their dummy out and left. 

 

The last point that bellend makes about Liverpool not contributing to the city is a bit of a contradiction seeing as they say all of our fans are out of towners and Norwegians who keep the hotel and tourism trade in the city going. While Everton's fans are all local and pop down to the ground 5 minutes before kick off.

And if you know your history... 

Can’t imagine what it must be like to having to put a negative spin on everything LFC related. Must be a tiring, depressing existence.

 

I hope they build the fucking thing just get on with it but leave the public finances alone you gang of freeloading cadging tramps.

The majority of posts on social media have been about how Liverpool fans will react rather than being excited about the stadium.

if we want to be really accurate about "if ye know ye history" .. while a football team called everton did indeed play at anfield, the legal entity that controlled everton football club then changed it's name to liverpool and started liverpool football club. so we kept the company and the stadium (for what it was). they kept the name and fucked off. the reality is really is we are the senior club, we just let them have the name because houlding wasn't a fucking idiot and saw the potential of being named after the city and not a district.

have you seen this new thing they've got of wearing a blue liverbird? gobshites - they are everton, pick something from everton. what a fucking weird lot they are - we've got a great emblem that's made a mythical bird world famous and an obscure song from a musical that was a hit for a merseybeat band as our anthem and universally seen as the best football song in the world and indeed as we saw through covid, it goes beyond football. They've got a prison and a tune famous only for being on a shit tv show about the police. Law and Order FC.

Spot on Barry, yes I’ve seen the blue liver bird badges, car stickers too.

 

The actions of mad people, people on the edge, it’s so nutty I’m struggling for an analogy. How the fuck would explain this behaviour to a layman?

 

They’re a psychiatrists wet dream.

They've misconstrued this. They've never had any badge with a Liver bird on in their entire history. They only started to use a Crest in 1920.

 

 

 

The football league was founded in 1888-89 and they were champions in 1891. The football league only gave pennants out to the winners and Everton had a strop because there were no winners medals. So they commissioned their own with the city's symbol on (the liver bird). It was only a 12 team league at that point. 

 

Liverpool were formed a year later yet they chose to name themselves after a small district rather than a city and didn't use any badge until 1920.

Ha ha. 

 

They genuinely think they owned Anfield, built a 60,000 all seater stadium then one day just decided to leave and build another ground because they were bored.

 

Anfield was basically just an enclosed pitch with a few small standing areas with shelters around it like Marine's ground but with 4 sides, Everton were forced off Stanley Park because the locals complained about crowds gathering there. The ground wasn't even developed properly until 1905. 

 

Another typical Everton thing is to buzz off those 14 years of existence before Liverpool when they played teams like Earlestown on an open field on Stanley Park. Before joining the football league they were basically just a social club. It took them 12 years their first league title when it was a 12 team league.  

 

Liverpool were formed in September 1892,  joined the football league the year after, got promoted as champions of the second division and eventually won the first division title in 1900-1901, which by then was a larger league (18 teams). So less than 9 years existence and Liverpool win the league having to play more games. At the turn of the century we were level with them on titles despite them having a 14 year head start. 

 

The only thing they had over us was 2 FA Cup wins before we won out first in 1965. 

 

Evertonians like to peddle the myth that they were the all dominant force in the city before Shankly arrived in 1959. But we were on the same amount of titles by then as well.
