A MERSEYSIDE council has told a developer - we do not want Everton FC's new stadium.

 

It means the Blues are unlikely to leave Goodison Park for a site close to Switch Island in Aintree even if a suggested move to Kirkby falls through.

 

Peel Holdings is working on a plan to build the Blues a new ground on green-belt land between the M57 and Brewery Lane in Melling.

 

It is an alternative to the proposal to build a 55,000-seater stadium in Kirkby town centre, revealed by the ECHO last week.

 

Peel, which owns John Lennon airport and Mersey Docks and Harbour Company, has held talks with the club and Sefton council about developing the land.

There could only be one name for a new stadium. Goodison Park........or maybe 'New Goodison'. As for its situation, the complainants are probably those who live within a stone's throw of the existing Goodison. For so many of us, a move to Knowlsley won't really phase us and hopefully car parking can be better organised. ;)

Spot on mate, parking is a big issue for a lot of people and to get that sorted would be a boost.

 

Only concern is perhaps a loss of atmosphere about 1/2 hour before the game, I enjoy the last walk around Goodison with a nice pint nestling in the old pasta pouch warming the cockles.

i dont think it should be called Goodison in any way at all; its not going to be in Goodison, it is not the same stadium, why would it have the same name? If we do move it should have a new name

How about "The Jail" or "Celltic Park" or "Tower Stadium" or "Gaol Park" or my personal fave

 

"Kiss our big blue hairy arses, because we don't give a f*ck what you call our stadium, because we are Everton and we know where we come from and we know where we need to be again Park"

 

Just a thought.

im all for having a dixie and labone stands, but id like to keep a gwladys street, so all the singers are kept together.

 

Tower Park i quite like at the mo

Steve, I'm thinking the two main stands "Dean/Labone".

 

The two ends "Goodison/Stanley"

 

The whole thing "The Tower"

 

I love you all, except Fozz.

id still have a main stand, a stand after labone and dixie, and i really want a gwlady.

 

i think it would be cool if we had the toffee tower built into one of the corners, like on the megastore

St Helens are looking at getting a 30,000 seater stadium so why would we share with them? They have already made all the plans and ive seen what the stadium will look like, theres no chance we will share with them

as a season ticket holder for st helens... knowsley road is a bit of a run down place

 

we are still discussing about whether we will be relocating somewhere up around knowsley and we are looking at a 30,000 seated stadium...

 

now what puzzles me is why are we relocating out of liverpool and somewhere up aorund kirkby? i dont Everton to be that sort of team to leave its tradition behind and go for some money... its just wrong

 

the only teams that i can think of that have done this are Arsenal and liverpool which whom both sold their souls to the devil and why did they have to leave their tradition behind for money?

Reg thats bollocks mate, Arsenal are moving no more than a mile away from Highbury, to a superb state of the art venue. And when have Liverpool moved?

 

If Everton were to move to Kirkby, its 4 miles for god sake. and Kirkby may be under Knowsley council, but its still Liverpool all the same. and its not just for money, Goodison is run down, just as Knowsley Road is
