New Everton Stadium

[Jxg]

I think it's unfair to say Elstone is massively out of his depth, if you have a quick look at his equivalent job holders;

Arsenal - Ivan Gazidis
Oxford Graduate, founding member of, and deputy commissioner of MLS

Aston Villa - Tom Fox
5 years chief commercial officer at Arsenal, head of sports marketing at Nike.

Man City. - Ferran Soriano
5 years as General Manager of FC Barcelona

Robert Elstone - Everton
University of Hull. Resigned from Castleford Tigers.


He more than holds his own.

University of Hull? I didn't know Hull even had the technology for schools, let alone a university...

Dead and buried methinks.
No financial plan in place to make it work means we'll have had to ask the council to fund it and they'll have said... "On yer bike."

They've known from the off that the council couldn't fund it, primarily because it'd be illegal.....oh and the fact that they're skint

A stadium on that site would be fundable given the current glut of TV cash that's currently unaccounted for, and is about to increase yet further. However, I'd imagine that a lender funding a mortgage type long term loan on any such build, would probably want some additional security - notably Directors guarantees............

Heavy speculating there mate.

Tell you what, I'll have you a friendly £5 on it.

To be fair to Hull, they have a far better university than Liverpool, the issue is, Hull is a turdhole, maybe if Liverpool was as dull as Hull, we'd be better.

Let's all blame concert square for our downfalls.

I'll hold my hands up!

I was wrong!

However when I started 5 years ago, they were easily one of the best then!

Hull is one of the great universities along with Oxford and Cambridge.

 

[Visitor22]

Oxford's a complete dump

[Chang Elephant]

Hasn't Hull University been twinned with Yale ?

 

[tommye]

is this still about the ground?


or is that the blue union thread now?

Nothing will happen until a magic genie grants their wish of a free stadium

Board should speak out and give us something before frustrated fans actually start believe BU nonsense
