New Everton Stadium

The way we are having to keep jumping through hoops for finance might seem to put to bed the hope the Usmanov will come riding in on a white horse and everthing will be well, all manner of things will be well
 

We need to have full transparency with this council deal so every council tax payer in Liverpool (who mostly don't care about football) can see the full costs (including the doomsday scenario if we get relegated/PL money vastly reduced) and the huge benefit to the city and thus them and their families. I have two young daughters and they couldn't care about football, they console me and empathise (a lot) but I know they don't care. I don't care what people here think but their future is far more important than Everton FCs stadium, if a dodgy deal risks future services then we need to know and what plans we have to prevent this.
I am concerned that we have ballsed up before and seem to have some really incompetent staff so smooth implementation is not what we do, going off Moshiri by the week since the communication for such a huge project is - as usual - appalling. The so called plans look like my youngest knocked them up in half an hour, joke.

There’s an element of risk whenever you do anything. Any single development in Liverpool could fall through yet we don’t have the inner details of these deals played out in the red echo for every man and his dog to have a look at. The right people in the council will look at it and ultimately that’s what elected representation is for. If they ok it then it’s really beyond the point of everyone throwing their 2p in. From the mayors podcast it sounds like it’s been through s period of external and internal scrutiny over the last 12 months and it’s the internal approval left to occur.

The Reds on the echo Facebook urging everyone not to vote Labour in the upcoming local elections, their 'staunch socialist' persona obviously takes a back seat to their bitterness over a possible new ground for EFC.

Liverpool's "staunch socialism" in action....

Say we get relegated (we won't). Mosh and the club can foot the bill for a year or two of debt service or take out an insurance policy or execute all sorts of risk reduction strategies. Revenues are only going up. There is almost zero risk. The financial risk is on the other financing depending on total costs or overruns.

I'm sure the risks will be mitigated like that or similar but it's only right that it is debated fully by LCC and that the final deal is visible to all.
