I find this very interesting thanks. Would we be able to expand BMD at some later date in a similar fashion or will the footprint of the site mean it isn't possible?
I think they should go to BMD. After a few months most won't be going to Goodison again. It will be flats etc. I think the statues should be at BMD which is were we will be. I believe the present stones are staying so there will be a memorial
One other thing......whilst a few people have mentioned they hope fans will stay after the match to drink etc. I know the hospitality is open 3 hours prior to the match and half time , drinks included. After the game is a pay bar. It may well be that most will have got their fill before full time !
I think that even if 10k stay behind to drink etc and half turn right and half turn left over 21k will be heading left and 21k right down a fairly narrow road. So yes I see there might be an issue
OK 52k going down that road. Then measure Goodison road and the side roads off, Gwladys St, Bullens Rd and the side roads off, the close proximity of Walton Lane, Priory Rd, County Rd etc. But yes measure wall to wall, there really is no comparison
I mentioned a week or so back that I can envisage difficulties in 53k dispersing from BMD due to the very limited road network, and those being single carriageway. That seemed obvious having been to the site and a cursory view of Google maps. I am not negative about moving, I am very excited...
A big statement. Frankly the decisions the club has made in most areas seems to be dreadful. I'm not sure why anyone would think the stadium would be any different. We don't know let's hope you are right.
