The resemblances between United and Everton are uncanny.
The whole âwhat would Everton do?â From Kenwright to âWe can do things in transfer window that other clubs can only dream of. Watch this spaceâ from Woodward.
Continuing on to spend themselves into trouble believing they were too big to fall.
If anything, Everton has a better chance of coming back and sorting their financial mess because their expenditure with respect to United over the years isnât even in the same level.

It really depends how the new people run Everton.
The new ground should help them then again with these storms seemingly more constant Iâve got my doubts whether where they built it was a sound idea.

Would be so Everton to build the stadium on reclaimed land and then find that they havenât done a good enough job or that it was the wrong decision to build it there in the first place.
But I do think that the stadium will be a sound architectural design. As to whether they needed the stadium , I donât think so. Renovating Goodison park would probably have been a better idea. I get that expansion of that site wouldnât have been feasible but too often clubs decide they want a new stadium (read Arsenal with Highbury) and end up losing a lot of identity when they do shift.
If Goodison were able to seat 40k after renovation. That really ought to be enough. Teams like Bournemouth are competing with a stadium of a 10k capacity FFS.
Itâs not just the stadium and the storms, with rising sea levels as they are, Iâm wondering why anyone still wants to build things next to the coastsâŚ

Agree on that.
If anything, itâs been mentioned here that the costs involved with building the stadium would have been much higher than what it would actually entail had the stadium been built on the inner land.
In some cities, building on reclaimed land / next to the coast is probably the only way out. Donât think thatâs the case for the city of Liverpool.
And as much as itâs unlikely to happen. Do hope Everton get fucked down to the championship this season.
The banter when they get to play their first match of the new stadium in the championship will be awesome.

I did not know that.
Perhaps Cantona should have gotten a medal not a ban.

I always felt that had Eric not been fortunate in which side of the fence he fell, he might have been in a bit of bother.

I said 15 years ago when FSG took over that if they want to really stand out and be successful, they should forget upgrading Anfield, but build a new 120K stadium on Stanley Park. I love the work they have put into the club, but still believe we could easily fill a 120-130K stadium week in/week out.

The problem with that is infrastructure. Ideally, you would want a stadium that size to be walking distance from Lime Street.

I also strongly doubt the city would allow the construction of a stadium that size. The height would be ridiculous and dominate the skyline.
Not to mention the mixed feelings about leaving Anfield for what would undoubtedly be a fairly generic bowl.

Fair point, but with that size a stadium, it wouldnât be too hard to convince the council to put a station on the local line within the area. I bet the income into the council coffers would be something they would be keen to get their hands on
