Sorry but I grew up watching an Everton that won league titles, Fa Cups and a European trophy (should have been more). Finishing 'best of the rest' is not good enough for me....

Bill K is the constant factor since the mid 90s.

we'll have to see, mate. i reckon it's dependent on our Prem status, and i don't see where the points are gonna come from to secure it.

The stadium will happen regardless of league status. Any sale depends in it. Will be completed.

it's a hell of a lot better than where we've been since Mosh took over.

Nil satis nisi optimum sounds a bit hollow when regularly hovering near the relegation zone, and consistently getting spanked out of cups early.

Too much of the ground is already built

 

[4737carlin]

Yeah course he is. And we'd have a half billion quid stadium on the Liverpool Waterfront without him, wouldnt we?

Everyone takes the piss saying it will be the biggest ground in the championship, its true, who cares about it compared to our Premier League status, its meaningless

 

[Achilles Heel]

i doubt the new stadium (at those inevitably-inflated prices) will be regularly sold-out for lower league games.

More realistic is that relegation will have the stadium deal written off, and we'll stay at Goodison.

What a load of [Poor language removed]...

Bill K is the constant factor since the mid 90s.

mid-90's to 2013 we won the FA Cup, finished top 6 a bunch of times, had a few memorable cup runs & Euro adventures, and a handful of great players and classic matches.

2014-2022....not so much.

New mestalla stayed partially built for over a decade and is now finally being redesigned with a much lower capacity. There are no guarantees when you are talking about 100s of millions.

written-off only means we won't get it. The stadium can and will end up being used for something else.

It could be, see I was told the boxes are 9 grand a year and you have to sign up for three seasons, 27k, nobody is doing that without the chance of a visit from United, City and Liverpool

Look at the Royal Hospital too, that was dormant for a few years

It’s hollow because it’s rarely or if at all, adhered to. Might as well remove it.

Bring back knives to a gun fight and the magnificent seven dvd releases. That more than satisfied a fair number of you.

Ok. So 1 FA Cup plus some top 6s in 20 years is good enough for you. Its not for me and many other Evertonians. We would have ended up here regardless at some point. We have to leave Goodison. Moshiri's money made that happen.

exactly...same principle for many standard-ticket fans too.

We'd still likely get 30k for lower league matches, but not much more (and that's assuming the price-increases won't be too horrendous), also the away-end will be drastically reduced.

Then there's the loss of TV earnings, major sponsors etc.


If relegated, a team of accountants will crunch the numbers and come to uncomfortable conclusions.

Imagine the RS moved there.
