Ah right

Simon Currie, jack of all trades has said it's too small

Sorry HOK, stadium designers, you're just wrong.

That's the end of that then.

As for Speke, it's in Liverpool....so the population taken into account when planning that particular retail park was the population of Liverpool.

When hok come out and officially declare it, i will look at it. Thats fake and you know it is
So the population of knowsley shouldnt be taken into account regarding kirkby then? Or doesnt that fit with your 'logic'

You have been seriously over charged if you ever paid that

a tenner in a private hire from Goodison to Kirkby

black cabs are usually 2.5 times more expensive

I've never got a black cab from the city centre to Kirkby though, but nice to see you've bothered with the actually crux of the thread - which was the train journey

would Tesco not be interested in a city centre location then?

if they're not, would ASDA? What about Sainsbury? Perhaps Morrisons? But I reckon it's safe to say Tesco would fancy it to be honest...

Bestway have said they will work with the council and accept a landswap so that the land becomes Council property, and Bradley has said Everton could lease the land to build a stadium on (the same as we're doing in Kirkby ladies and gents)

so if we're getting the land for free, and a cross subsidy from retail (which EVERTON could control and sell on - as opposed to Tesco in Kirkby who will be taking the lion's share of the money) then all we need to do is pay for a bit of the stadium itself...like we are in Kirkby

it's not rocket science - the funding package that is paying for Kirkby could easily pay for this too as any big supermarket worth their salt would jump at the chance to own a peice of retail development in one of the fastest growing city economies in the UK - except Everton could take the lead on this and charge Tesco / ASDA / Morrisons whatever they wanted to be a part of it

And you thought of that on your own? Whoa! You must work for a big company that deal with this kind of thing, its that simple

Black cabs 2.5 times as much? You need to practice your scouse accent lad as your seriously getting over charged.
You would be looking at £15 max from town, obviously more expensive after 11.

You're suggesting that KEIOC have submitted a fake document to a Public Inquiry?

You are honestly suggesting these people are prepared to commit a criminal offense to make a point?

You want to get down to the Inquiry and report them.

Imagine how good you'd feel when KEIOC were sent to jail if you were right!

He does, the NHS!

This is your journey to and from Kirkby by train...

You arrive at Lime Street and walk through the city centre of Liverpool to Central Station

Assuming you want to get to Kirkby early, you'll probably be on a moderately busy train to Kirkby station - you might even get a seat - which is a 15 minute walk from the proposed ground.

After the match, assuming you want to leave straight away, you walk 15 minutes to the station, and wait for the next train to Liverpool. Trains are every 15 minutes, which, if everything runs smoothly, can be increased to every 10, and hold 900 people if you stand VERY close together.

The club estimate that 4,000 fans will want to go this route.

If you are fan number 1 to 900 then you're onthe first train. You might get a seat, or you might be forced to stand chest to chest with an away fan.

Anywhere after that and you've got a wait. With up to 3,000 other Blues, and if we've played Man Utd or City, up to 2,000 of them too.

Your wait may be 10 minutes for the next train, or 30 for the 4th train.

If you are on the fourth train, you will be waiting in the carpark, which doesn't have a roof (and there are no plans to build one according to Merseytravel who operate it)

So, 30 minutes in May - that's nice, get a decent tan.

30 minutes in December, in the rain. Not so nice. That's after a 15 minute walk, in the rain.

You are then crammed onto a packed train standing as near as possible without getting naked to hoardes of other fans who will be as soaked as you. Your ride to Liverpool Central is roughly 12 minutes.

In August or May, after a win, that's bearable - just about.

In December or January after a defeat?

Of course, there are pubs in Kirkby you could go to after the game. Or the club could enforce one of it's ideas and keep fans (home fans included) locked in the stadium for an hour after the final whistle

Either option is fine if you've not got to get anywhere, or you like a drink, or if you're even in the mood for a drink. Although this is more likely after a win, and probably more likely when the sun is shining as even the best pubs around Goodison end up packed with people ending up stood outside...

Kirkby is a £25 taxi ride from Liverpool City Centre though, if you would prefer that....

This doesn't seem to have been a problem for the past 116 years, why should it be a problem now? Ala Kirkdale & Soccerbus etc

So you'll be reporting them to the Inquiry for submitting a fake document then?

And to HOK for using their name?

It's your civic duty to do so you know

We haven't played in Kirkby for the last 116 years, and Kirkdale is served by double the number of trains that Kirkby can be from Liverpool

Ok, I was wrong - you are Halewood Blue.

Build it and they will come!

You think kirkdale has that many trains by chance or is it because there is a demand for it!

What give it away? My screen name perhaps!

You have spotted a crime and yet you won't be reporting it?
