New Everton Stadium

[Diogenes the Cynic]

No one should be able to build on Stanley Park it is green belt land and is for all the people of Liverpool. I said the same when Liverpool wanted to build theirs there and nothing has changed my mind on the subject.

 

[Moomin]

Are you sure?

Yes, we asked in the early 90's and got told no.

 

[pornpimol2]

What about this... The Arl Bernabeu

Again, new 1 built over old

Mate if we could build the old one on Goodison i'd be one happy bunny maybe a bit of a roof to

That opinion is viable as fook and i don't really see anyone changing their opinion on it so far - though the RS seemed to be making some kind of progress - unless that was just media baiting. Of the other options we've seen explored so far is Kirkby (massive nope from everyone) and King's Dock (traffic flow problems), but what else do we have that can be considered a serious option?

 

[BoysInBlue]

The RS were granted planning permission to build on Stanley Park, rightly or wrongly. They just didn't have the money to build the new stadium there, no matter what they say. They are doing the cheaper option now, rebuilding Anfield.

I think if we built on parkland, then the only way it would be morally right would be if Goodison Park was turned into public park land in return. To be honest, I'd be happy with that. I'll be gutted when the days comes when they build houses or even a supermarket on the site of Goodison.

To be fair, it looked better than our awful attempt in the Kirkby project.

Wow that is close but us moving into stanley park would be so cheek by jowl with their ground that we could share one of the stands - I think their Anfield Rd end could share a roof with our new away end with our home end on Priory Rd. (I'm only joking obviously)

 

[Huyton Layne]

We're best not putting our ground anywhere near Anfield as they'll have us evicted and it demolished after throwing a few backhanders to their minions in the council

Yes, we asked in the early 90's and got told no.

Story I read is that we never asked, confirmed by club and council.

FACT

We played on Stanley Park in 1879.

My sentiments, entirely.

 

[BrumBlue1878]

I don't necessarily want to move, from a sentimental point of view, but we NEED to move. As a St Helens' fan as well, we moved from Knowsley road to Langtree Park (I know this is a completly different scale) and although some of the older fans would have liked to have stayed (I'm sure like some Wiganers at Central Park) but we HAD to move, to progress into the 21st Century. As do we; Goodison's great from a historic and atmospheric perspective but as a ground, in comparison to Villa Park and St James' to name a few, it's a tired stadium on its last legs.
When's this 'move' set to take place?

 

[Bluesnapper]

IF there is a move into Stanley Park then the loss of that piece of green space will be cancelled out by turning GP into green space.

Doubt it. The land where Goodison Park sits would have to be sold to somebody else to help fund the stadium.
