Mayor's Bramley Moore Dock Open Letter To Evertonians

[Tubey]

It's this simple:



How?

If he says it's possible, explain how. Then the concerns disappear.

Until then, that tweet is PR nonsense as it isn't backed up by anything of substance.

So that's what we need - an answer to how this tweet makes any sense whatsoever.

What do the club get from compromising/working around the challenge of athletics to accommodate Liverpool's 2022 bid?

My bet is that this was one of the conditions of the funding model (disclaimer - this is supposition, I have no insider info whatsoever!)

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Shouldn't it be transparent?

This is the council, tax payers money.

Yes

 

[ToffeeTim]

We lost the Kirkby war.

We won by not going to Kirkby

Well we're going to have to hope we do

The letter clearly states we arent compromising anything.

Bit odd of the Mayor to feel compelled to write this letter, an conclude it in bold claiming there's no compromise here.

I said this morning, before the letter - this would be a compromise.

It absolutely is.

When do we know which city has won the bid? Surely if it's not Liverpool this becomes irrelevant, but at the same time we have an architect in 'lingo' waiting to know if a track is even necessary. @Moomin

For a few days of athletics which not many of us will be bothered about, we can compromise the building of a fantastic football stadium.
And what if we don't get the CG?

Why should he be if it's a purpose-built football stadium that won't be 'compromised'?

He could very well say the same to you though. You - without having seen any plans or been privy to any discussions - are assuming that the stadium is going to be crap and that a running track is going to mean a sacrifice of what the fans want.

He's telling you it isn't. Your word against his.

It would still have to be put into the plans. Including the costings.

Late summer the commonwealth commitee propose which country has won the bid and from then im not sure.

 

[Azza]

Is this why they announced the two signings yesterday because the fume this would have caused would have been unprecedented.

 

[peteblue]

A track isn't acceptable and this needs to be fought like Kirkby was. We are a FOOTBALL team. All this other stuff is irrelevant.

Oh dear god no, not again......

It absolutely is.

But is it an acceptable compromise? No one will know till we see the plans, till then, theres no point worrying.
