LOTS of blues are sick of the Kirkby debate and probably wish it would go away.
It evokes such deep-seated emotions and memories, suspicions and fears that getting involved should carry a health warning.
The debate isn’t going anywhere though.
Every new image released by Everton and Tesco sparks thousands of reactions.
Each new slice of intrigue from KEIOC does likewise.
The latest concerns the report by world-renowned architects HOK which proves that a 55,000 seat stadium can be built on the Scotland Road Loop site.
I’ve seen it and this is true.
While I’m sure this won’t send the Kirkby train careering off its tracks, it should be food for thought.
Many people, including our own top brass, have been quick to dismiss the Loop.
It’s a headache of a site which would need major cooperation from Liverpool city council and the private sector (not to mention a potentially bigger investment from Everton).
But I defy any blue to say that staying in the city of Liverpool, on the brink of the city centre and in an iconic location like Scotty is not preferable to Kirkby.
The images coming from Tesco/Everton continue to underwhelm me.
Meanwhile the argument against abandoning a city in Renaissance strengthens.
Does Everton F.C. have a choice?
Or are we so skint that we must follow the path of least investment?

Well said, Gregg. It had to be said. This is a horrific future the club are rolling out before the eyes of its loyal fanbase.
Nil Satis Nisi Optimum? They're having a laugh.
Stop this madness now!
