Shrewsbury style coracles in the Mersey for when the ball gets kicked over the stand. Perhaps that's why they got rid of Dyche - insurance cost for the boat operators was going to be too high. |  | |  |

Maybe they've just done that to lower the expectations of their fans so that they've already got that sense of disappointment before they kick off. |  |

They are doing a test run with a full crowd a bit later, so we shall see. But my experience of this season is that very few of the Premier League grounds are easy to get away from. when you factor in things like queues for public transport. By contrast, at Portman Road, I can be on a London bound train at 5.10. |  | |  |

My Everton connection reports that the train experience to & from was woeful and hopes for improvements as it couldn't cope with 10k supporters. Sandhills, the connecting train station was referred to as a "death trap" Of course, this is what these test events are all about. Pies: £6.80 too |  |

It's a 40 minute walk (1.9 miles) from Lime Street, so that would probably be the best route for away fans on the way back. Or, if not that, a shuttle bus to the centre. [Post edited 18 Feb 13:03]

That would be Murphey's. They had 2 bar staff on... |  |

Just go to Liverpool one or Albert dock for a drink and food, |  | |  |

Yes, was just going to add this in here: https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/everton-fans-say-bramley-moo It's surely close enough to the centre of Liverpool for walking back rather than trying to get on an overbusy train is the most efficient option. |  |

Everton's new stadium on 14:28 - Feb 18 with 3757 views | Mercian | I thought it was just outside of Liverpool proper in/close to Bootle but it is within City limits. It is actually as close to if not closer to the suburb of Everton than Goodison Park is. Anfield is much closer to Everton than either. |  | |  |

Agreed, looks very generic inside the ground. Tottenham's stadium is new but the cockerel is iconic and instantly recognisable, whereas Everton's ground could probably be for any blue top tier team in Europe - could do with something visible from within that makes it their own |  | |  |

Obviously an issue there that should get resolved before the start of next season but my biggest take away from that is who on earth takes an eight week old to a football match? |  |

But that is the wrong direction ! I want to go north ! Much better to take in a bacon butty by Alf and a pint and take the 18.16. I dont expect I could do that at Everton either. At least not for well under a tenner. |  | |  |

It wasn't because of this that World Heritage Status was lost, but the planned towers. |  | |  |
