Yeah, but they don't get to keep all the gate money do they? The artist still wants paying and they'll still have competition with us and fsg aren't going to let them take all the money. 

 

And the transport thing is a big deal, that stadium's location is a fucking hike from town. I know they keep saying "waterfront city centre location". Is it fuck. Yeah, it's on the water, but it's a proper hike from town, transport links are a must. 

And being on the waterfront just means that you've got 3 directions, instead of 4, in which to disperse your crowd.

The Titanic hotel down there is rated as a great hotel by most people who stay there but they always complain about the location and the fact that everything round it looks derelict. 

 

Everton will also have to contribute to transport links as well so it's going to cost more than 500m. Plus it fucking stinks round there as well thanks to that cooking oil factory and sewage plant.

Perfect

That spout so much shit its handy for a local plant to process it

We're not getting relegated this season, we're not getting Champions League either way for a year or two.

Don't know how to copy facebook links but there was a caller on the Radio Merseyside phone in that's been copied onto an LFC Facebook page and the caller is nearly in tears saying the whole team should be shot, Silva is a miserable twat and that they've had nothing but misery for 25 years and will another 25 if nothing changes. Amazingly he never mentioned Liverpool.

[Vincent Vega]

Wasn’t Spurs stadium supposed to have a cost of around £600m but is now heading towards the £1bn figure? Big projects like this always seem to find ways for costs to escalate out of control.

 

That Meis fella is taking them for a ride, he’s probably already had hundreds of thousands of pounds out of them, and they haven’t even got as far as a sketch of what it would look like.

[Lee909]

Its no shock that the cost escalate really

Firms know once the work starts that people are committed and have to see it through. Spurs are normally good at this stuff and would likely have decent safeguards. The way the bitters are run they likely end up fucking it right up and signing some shitty deal and only own 49% of the stadium and be stuck with huge loans or rent for the rest. 

[TheHowieLama]

RENT???

[TheBitch]

TRENT?

Just a suggestion that if the cost rises they could end up not owning the stadium with a partner owning % or some shit. They have been terribly run for years and they think this guy is some sort of saviour who isn't looking for a return. My guessing is he is another snake oil salesman and they are gulping it down. Look at them going on about how they've spent, vast amounts of that was recouped in sales

[Harry Squatter]

Think the stadium will go belly up and then they will just look at another cheaper site like that Garston Gasworks and start the whole thing over again.

 

They like to feel important and relevant and this is just them pretending to be a big club but not backing it up with anything of substance. Should be their club motto. They love telling people how great a club they are but don't have any evidence apart from going on about being in existence before us, Dixie Dean, the Holy Trinity and the 1985 team. 

[Lee909]

The are no bigger than Wolves. 

The Wolves team of the 50s was as good as anything in the world and then they just faded away. It's been the same for them. Had they gone down in the 90s they could easily have gone the same way as Leeds or Forest

I have time for people like him.  What's a supporter supposed to do?

 

If Claude from AFTV started banging on about rival teams, I'd stop liking him.

They truly are the least successful 'big club' in the world.

 

Post War they have won the following:

 

4 leagues titles

3 FA Cups

1 ECWC 

 

And that is it....and of course the last of those trophies came 24 years ago.

 

Big club - my arse.

 

Nobody outside of their minority fanbase in the city really gives a fuck about them.

Spare a thought for Evertonians tonight - they’re as nervous as we were on the eve of Istanbul. Decade-defining evening for them tomorrow.

The caller was dis-enheartened and the manger needs to look the chairman in the mirror.

Joking aside, they should have gone to Kirkby when they had the chance.  Building costs would have been lower; there was room to grow; the council would have bent over backwards for them; road, rail, bus and  (probably) tram links would have been excellent; and it's only a short hop from Goodison anyway - it would have moved the club closer to much of its fanbase. 

 

Instead, they were hamstrung by their own petty parochialism - born largely from years of trying to mock us for our ability to attract fans from all over the world - to the extent that crossing a municipal boundary, arbitrarily drawn in 1974, was seen as a step too far.

 

They remind me of Brexiteers getting cross at losing their right to free movement: they are bitter (and angrily in denial) about being a small club, but that is exactly what they choose to be.
