Sandhills station

What you're failing to accept here is that a football club would have no real input on a transport plan beyond consultation, no powers to push through what it wants. It's a football club. The decisions made there are by the combined local authorities. Do you have evidence that Everton didn't consult with them before the latest plan was published?

Perhaps you can suggest what the club should have been doing here to have avoided this mess over transporting people in and out of the area? AFAIK the club have made a contribution to the Sandhill's improvements. But you cant be serious about comparing Everton with clubs like Spurs and Arsenal - clubs 3 or 4 times richer than this club - who have paid out money to smooth out transport problems when their stadiums were built.

I'd say that Everton have done just about all they can possibly do here and should have seen a lot more activity than we've seen from the local state who've talked a good game of helping Everton help them to regenerate the north end. They've utterly failed with the Ten Streets development to have that sorted out and knitting up the space between the stadium and city centre.

This insistence of yours to see matters a different way is motivated by your reluctance from the very beginning to acknowledge that the stadium at the docks is a good idea and you're casting about for anything to continue to hold that point of view. Unfortunately it aligns you with some nefarious people.

So, you can't find anything that the council have reneged on or failed to deliver in the agreed Transport Plan that was submitted with the planning application?

I suggest you read back through the stadium thread if you're going to make false accusations. I clearly stated my reservations and concerns regarding the transport plan from when it was first published several years ago.
