It'd been a while since I looked at this and, while sound, I agree Kirkby, Maghull, and Crosby are not on.

There is a great feeling towards having a stadium in the docks, whilst the desire is fervent among many of us in reality it is unlikely to happen. It would be superb if it came off and I cannot think of any other PL club that could match that location, it would be iconic. However reality beckons me and is it just a pipe dream?
I'm not brand new mate, but whatever. Lived in the Walton area a long time and I know which is easier to get away from and it's not the city centre. As I say the romantic vision is sound by me, but it's not easier travel wise

Everyone goes on about LCC but what is to stop Sefton Council working with the club? Is it out of the realms of possibility that Everton could move slightly further north?

HHMM how far further north?

Maybe 3 to 4 miles, as far as Bootle, Litherland, Netherton etc. Just thinking out loud really. If LCC are not forthcoming in working with Everton then would the club speak to Sefton MBC?
One direction? Don't you know Evertonians can walk on water? Great news about the season ticket prices. A shrewd, shrewd move.
Personally, I would only want to move if we moved further in, not further out.
Think we'll have to beg to differ on that one, Tommy. It's all a bit of fun, in any case. Whether or not our opinions will carry any weight , who knows?
On another note, wouldn't it be wonderful if we moved to a prime location and didn't have to demolish Goodison? Maybe preserve the Gwladys and the Bullens and demolish the other 2 stands and replace with community facilities including a sports hall/gym etc. Unlikely? Let's be honest the land in L4 probably isn't worth a fortune and the money raised by selling it would be a drop in the ocean compared to the cost of a new stadium. Imagine if we could keep a presence at L4 4EL and have the reserves, youth teams and women's teams playing there. Buy and refurb the Winslow whilst we're at it, too.
No. And I think every possibility should be looked at. Moving to a new site nearer the city centre/docks is a personal preference, that's all. As you have your personal preference. I am not party to any inside information and cannot guess what the club will do. That said, if I was a gambling man, I wouldn't put much money on still playing homes games (at least first team ones) at GP in a few years time. Time will tell, of course.
If it is a relocation
Heart says ....Clarence Dock
Head says....Stanley park
Reality says...Walton Hall Park.
