The Outer Loop the Council is pushing is the key to the new stadium. Read all posts from Post No. 1 please.

No.

Black Toffee has confirmed this board has neither the drive or vision to deliver their part of any new stadium plan. That may sound overly sceptical, but I believe him.
 
Why bring Johnson into it, we agree that we "don't believe that the board have the vision or willingness at the moment" to deliver a new stadium project, so this train track mularkey is a bit of a non starter. This inner city character seems to be giving the board some credit.

Agreed about Leon's infantile argument btw.

I refute this.

Chang Elephant smells of poo.
 
More like comparing apples and bears.

Anyway, LFC, EFC, Merseytravel, the local council, the department of transport, the government - none of them are particularly looking round at the moment saying, "right we've got stacks of spare cash. What can we spend it on?"

Read back on the thread on the transport minister and how it is done.

Pah. Everytime I say something you ask me to re-read it all.

But my eyes glaze over by the third paragraph.

Could it be that I just don't find trains as interesting as you do?

It's bloody tedious for me mate. But please keep posting. This place is better with you than without you.
 
I think what you were proposing were fairly minor infrastructure improvements. I don't think that would be a problem.

But the way Intercity's going off on one. His scale certainly would fall foul of EU competition law.

Opening up an old rail line is against the EU? Wow!

Yeah. EU competition law applies to all economic activity in member states.

The fact these are franchises and public companies providing public services doesn't exclude this either from the associated legal requirements.
