Looks like the Blues' stadium deal fell through: http://soccernet.espn.go.com/headlinenews?id=263832&cc=5901 I'm shedding alligator tears.
Interesting. I was just there last weekend. Geez those seats in the upper deck at Goodison are small! I felt like a sardine. Interesting sidenote: I had no idea that Goodison and Anfield were so close together. Had a wonderful time, though.
It's a shame, to be honest. The city would doubtless have benefitted from two world class stadia such as were being proposed. The Kings Dock development would also have been hugely impressive and made our waterfront a real international attraction. And I could have caught the proposed 'River Buses' to and from work. It looks now as though they willl look at sites in Speke or Chornton. Either way, they are still leaving Goodison. Interesting side note though - what if they are still in Jurassic Park when we move into the New Anfield. we will literally be perched on top of them.
