New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[Sir Alan]

This ongoing Police investigation won’t play well. There are now calls for the Government to put a supervisory body in charge of the council as they are missing key personnel due to investigations and sick leave. I hope we have a back up financing plan.........

“Calls have been made for the Tory Government to intervene in the running of Liverpool council following recent events.

Former council leader and Liberal Democrat Lord Mike Storey has written to the Department of Local Government claiming the situation inside the authority is at “such a low level” that the government needs to intervene.

He has asked for the same sort of supervisory committee that was brought in at Birmingham Council last year after its chief executive was sacked amid claims of chaos.”

Plan B, Everton?

Can’t stand that fella. Desperately trying to do anything to stop progress in this city.

They better have a plan B, we had far too many false promises of stadiums under Kenwright, fans will never put up with it again just because Moshiri is in charge now. He is the guy who is supposed to have the money after all.

Well said, Joe. The nerve of a Lib Dem to suggest Tory intervention in this city.

Also, on us:

“Since then, the Lib Dems in national Government created the austerity budget which has stripped us of 64% of our funding. Any investments we now make, such as the Everton stadium deal - which is yet to be finalised - are designed to earn us a revenue to fill the gap left by their Government cuts. Despite that, our borrowing is the lowest of all Core Cities and lower than many others, such as Warrington which is half our size.

Well "Biffo" just adds a bit more to the conspiracy theories that are all over this, and the Moshirir thread plus the Usmanov thread.

It cost £700m to build .. so really we are looking at 400m after the council pay out (i know this is all pie in the sky)

The council money is not fully secured as yet I believe. Have the LCC had their meeting on this yet?

Does this 'Beechside' have any previous ITK credentials?

 

[Toffeelover]

Do you think the forum means like this??

I like the inside of the Allianz Arena, but the outside bores me. Looks like a massive car tyre.

 

[kithnou]

I call BS. All the messages of late, for me anyway, indicate an US style stadium open end looking into the skyline. Not a closed bowl design.

I'd imagine he'd do it like the the stadio d'ella Roma with the Archibald Leitch pattern instead
