Don't think there's anything official mate but from what others have said on here it sounds promising.

Just on a historic note, the Titanic never sailed from Liverpool. In fact at no time did it ever sail down the Mersey, even before it's maiden voyage which was from Southampton. The connection with Liverpool is that Titanic was registered here and the white star lines head office was in Liverpool also.

Also on a separate note, all this talk of a riverside name and which dock location the stadium will be built on. Have I missed something? Is the Croxteth option off the table? Can we definitely look forward to a riverside stadium?

I didn't know that, everyday is a school day. Re the stadium, I think most of us are just running off hope and what we also believe is sound business sense. Even a blow in like me knows that Croxteth would be a backwards step for the club. I don't see how successful businessmen like Moshiri wouldn't go all out for the docks given both the commercial and symbolic benefits to be obtained.

Didn't like the oversized stairways in a few of the stadiums, as the fan sections looked quite small.

Yeah, I noticed that too.

Is it actually happening ?

I would say it's a practical certainty.

If we had an incredible stadium somewhere on the Docks, Moshiri will forever be an Everton legend.

Just back from two Euro games in Bordeaux and Lille. Both fantastic stadiums.

The thing with both is that they were way outside the city centre and a nightmare to get back to the city from. One was on a team line, another on a metro line, but they couldn't cope with the crowds.

It just highlighted to me how important it will be to get a stadium within walking distance of the city centre.

i was at the lille stadium for the ireland v italy match. absolutely horrendous getting away from it afterwards as you say, 2 hrs before we got back to city centre.

Ridiculous comment. We play in Liverpool, the Senior team in the city. Walk around it, the city is blue. The city of the Beatles! And you say leave out 'Liverpool' ? Come on! Huge tourist market, site of Titanic's last sail, constant stream of tourist buses and you object to 'Liverpool'. Welcome to the new world, Google 'Liverpool' and I want to see Blue icons. Our stadium is essential.

I'm being pedantic I know but I think the Titanic's last sail was from Cobh

I'd always imagined The Esk's back garden to be bigger than that for some reason

Just to clear things up for any that are interested. It sailed from Southampton with the bulk of it's passengers on April 10th 1912 and picked up more passengers in Cherbourg before finally picking up the last set of passengers in Queenstown Ireland.
