blue union meeting.

Honest question, do Blue Union make any difference to anything?

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Whether it's a sale or investment he's done a terrible job at both lets be honest. Like I mentioned previously it seems to me they all have a "can't do/won't do" attitude. Anyways, back to these designs, I've seen them previously and it looks all doable apart from the bit where it costs money and I'm afraid under this current board as others have mentioned, I would be shocked if we made any inroads whatsoever regarding a new stadium or redesign Goodison Park ( which I think would be 95% of our preferred choice )

Stones,Coleman,Barkley,McCarthy,lukaku out of the door and its on macca!!!

Childish, do you actually live in Liverpool? We are miles behind the [Poor language removed] in the popularity stakes, even kids that live close to Goodison all wear LFC kits, There is NO hope for any future support unless we act NOW.

Yes, born and raised, and stop being such a drama queen.
We're not miles behind, kids who live by the sh1tpit wear Everton kits. With attitudes like yours, there is no hope for anybody. Lets all give up and support the vermin now if there's no hope.

People saying "we'd never be able to fund such a thing."

Sacking our idiot CEO and hiring someone who actually knows how to maximise the club revenue would be a start.

But showing a possible alternative must be a far more agreeable way of "moving on" than pointless slogans and protests.

Naturally. I think this at its best can push board work harder.

I dont think so, but they've only got themselves to blame IMO, especially for the lack of backing from majority of fans.

When they started their approach was if you didnt agree with them you were a KENWRIGHT LOVER and literally got abused by their followers when some who didnt agree werent necessarily support Kenwright. This heavy handedness you could say affected them badly with regards to Evertonian support.

Not when most supporters refuse to even listen to what they have to say.

For years the board's supporters have said "come up with solutions instead of just moaning." Well here we are, they've come up with an alternative and are presenting it for everyone to see.

What's the response? "Bake a cake and throw it at Kenwright's door." Jesus wept, it's an uncomfortable truth that when it comes to our board most of our supporters are just completely clueless and refuse to listen to facts.

Everton are a dying club similar to Leeds United, only difference we haven't been relegated yet.We can't compete in this city because of the RS influence everywhere ,there will always be obstacles in our way.

With all due respect that's a horribly defeatist and negative attitude, that the likes of Tottenham and West Ham don't have, despite sharing a city with 2 of the perennial top 4 teams in the country.

If we're a 'dying club' it's solely because of this board and the way we're run, the lack of ambition and business sense. It's easily fixable by changing the persons running (and owning) OUR club. We don't need a Sheik or a billionaire. We need someone wealthy, no doubt, but above all else we need someone with business sense and a sense of ambition. Someone with a 'Can do' attitude instead of a 'Careful now, make and do' attitude.

The Board never said it wasnt possible, they simply said it wasnt affordable.

And they are 100% correct.

Under the current board I don't doubt that for a second. As previously mentioned in my posts I don't believe there will be any development or stadium move under the current board.

 

[The Equaliser]

Redevelopment would be boss. 100 mil is really not much.

The projected cost of redevelopment in the last feasibility study about 10 years ago was about £240m iirc. I'm struggling to work out how it could now be done for about 60% less.

I still don't think it would happen then Dario lol

 

[Jacko93]

I don't get how people see the actual construction of this happening. It's a near impossibility to actually do the build with such close proximity of the houses along the Gwladys and Goodison road. The whole row of houses along both streets would have to be bought and demolished.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

So if a new modern football stadia is as simple as redesigning a few stands on an old ground why have the RS and the council spent years ghettoising a whole community when all they needed was a few power points and sketches.

People's expectations have moved on since goodison was built over a hundred years ago, and with that comes the desire for new amenities and facilities.

We can't get that from our current location for many reason, it's time to give up on the pipe dreams and sentiments and concentrate on the reality.

If the BU really want to help the club move forward why not find destinations that are acceptable for a move instead of trying to destabilise new proposals and opposing the inevitable.

 

[Neiler]

Great, so now it's about keeping Everton at Goodison.

Bingo.

 

[BoysInBlue]

Blue Union seem to spilt opinion as much as the board they're so heavily against do.

The 'splitting opinion' is extremely unfair when they're actually trying to come up with solutions.
