FC St.Domingo - a possibility?

The AFC Wimbledon makes complete sense. Their club being uprooted, renamed and good as destroyed utterly justifies it.

AFC Liverpool is not a protest against their namesakes but more against the commercialisation of top flight football according to their website. Why not just go and get behind an established non-league club instead of further diluting the pool then? They do want to identify as a budget "Liverpool FC" but a series of groundshares outside the city combined with a fall in attendances from their earlier years doesn't make a realisation of a Liverpool based AFC Liverpool a likelihood anytime soon so again what is the point?

City Of Liverpool FC is an interesting one which doesn't really fit the same profile as it seems to be an attempt to build and establish a non-league club within the city with no attempt to connect or tie in to either of the two professional clubs in Liverpool. A very large support at their current level indicates the likelihood of a move into the city is a real prospect but it'll be interesting viewing if they're upward trajectory continues. Will the egos start to bash heads such as they have at FC United?

FC Domingo? Not for me. It smacks of an arrogant belief that someone's particular brand of Evertonian-ness is somehow purer than that of the actual club. The club hasn't been took from anyone over the last couple of years or rebranded beyond rescue. If you can stomach the difference between what the clubs was during the 60's, 70's and 80's compared to the advent and establishment of the Premier League then it's a bit rich to say the Kenwright/Moshiri years are somehow beyond reasonable.

Let Everton be Everton and don't try and build some holier than thou shrine to self importance, ego and bed wetting.

If you just want to get back to enjoying going watching the football then there's plenty of clubs out there to try and despite what you may feel it's actually possible to get bit by the bug of another club. There's plenty of Blues and Reds go watching Prescot Cables and have a great time there - For me it's the perfect antithesis to the current malaise at Everton and though it's the same sport it just isn't in the same world so enjoying one isn't an affront to or replacement for the other. It's just a grubbier, dirtier bit on the side which loves you back but doesn't ask you to leave the missus for it.
 

Bit of a crapfest tbh, feel like the response would be completely disproportionate to what is actually happening, regardless of getting relegated. I'd suggest that if the disillusioned part of our fan base didn't start a new club after 3 failed stadium moves and chronic debt and underinvestment under Kenwright, they are unlikely to now. At least the new bloke has some money, has invested it and looks to have a waterfront stadium on track
 

The new club would be beating Tranmere inside 4 or 5 years.

But I dread to think how the 24/7 search for a ground would go. Unless Goodison is the plan post 2022-3.
