Its controversial , but with our yank owners apparantly struggling in the credit crunch and the blue noses having more council opposition thrown their way for their supermarket in Kirkby its something they'll all be getting around a table about again ...

Kop Holdings are having a meeting about it next week ...

What are your thoughts.. Ratty ... John .. ?

I dont like the idea of sharing anything with the blue noses.. but it works for Inter / AC and Bayern / TSV 1860 ..

Derby day down the Kings dock would be a fun day out though !

It wont happen, so probably not worth lengthy discussion, however apart from being against it personally, one thing has never quite been explained.....

Fact is, Liverpool are like Man U...make Anfield 70k capacity and it will be filled week in week out.....Everton, well ok, they sell half season tickets at Xmas every year, and struggle to get more than 30,000....waits for rants, but its a fact.

So, Everton at home, would be like a reserve game, playing in front of an half empty stadium.

Would that be good

We don't "struggle" at all to get over 30,000 people in, our average is usually around 36,000 per year. we either get 36,000 seats filled or we don't, whats the struggle? do we drag them in of the street or something?

At least the majority of Everton fans live within a 10 mile radius of the ground.

As a business, yes it would be the best option for both clubs to share, but as supporters, nah sorry could not sit on a seat that some dirty rednose has pissed on the previous week.

Thats my point Tony...36000 crowd, 65000 capacity....not good.

I agree with the locals thing though. I live 9.4 miles, driving route, from Anfield, closer as the crow flies ;\)
