The way some people are rambling on here, it's almost like Everton are going to be the first private business in history to benefit from a local government regeneration scheme lol
Providing the club don't go bust, then I see no issue with the financing mechanisms. There will be plenty of business benefit from the North Liverpool dock project, and if it puts people in jobs and makes people better off then why would people oppose?
It's a big IF that we can pull this off, but if we do then it's sustainable, smart, helps us compete off the field, and is socially responsible.
PS: If we mess this up it's not the project to blame, its the people involved in our board. And I will unleash my fury towards them for messing up such a great chance.
