Wembley I guess.

They also had a stadium to fall back to should the worst happen. We don't as can't see Goodison being in a fit state due to ongoing works. (Tottenham that is).

Plus I would imagine all of the critical infrastructure testing was satisfied through the other events. This may be just a scaling rubber stamp.

We already have swimming and watersports from Nelson down to Princes Docks, even a sauna in the latter. Presume the water quality is good enough already.

Mate...We'd have been in The King Dock for 20 years by now if Kenwright could have got his ego out the way. Am absolutely convinced that was a sliding doors moment. His decision to con the club and it's fans out of that move cost us the past 20...

Moorfields too.

Get close to that stadium during the day and it doesn't look so nice. We were never going to be able to light up an UNESCO site in that way. If we were starting now, then perhaps it would have been different. We'd still have faced issues with...

UEFA are perfectly correct. There will be no exceptionalism for us. Otherwise you'd have Juventus instead of Turin, and Real Madrid instead of Madrid. The City of Manchester Stadium will have Manchester emblazoned on the half-way line. We will be...

The outfitters are the same company who did Spurs, so they come with great ideas and experience. Yet, importantly, the outfit will not be to the same standard. But that's because they spent a lot more money than us building it! So as you say...

Hectares

Dale St is the Everton mile

Slightly off topic but Lime St to St John's Gardens to Dale St could be our equivalent of the high line but on the ground. It could be a spectacular, green walking route from the station to where the hotels and pubs are. They haven't even removed...
