Tottenham may be struggling with debts but as I said before this is not about the now it's about the long term. There is a reason Tottenham and other clubs are building modern stadia . A long term that won't be if concern to me personally

So this is not about me it's about the generations to come and a converted old statdium won't cut the mustard sadly and there will come a point in the future when Liverpool FC will start to pay the price.

Everton could well overtake us in the future. It's not about seats and it's about infrastructure and capacity to adapt to change. We are locked in an old stadium forever

However what do I care ? None of this will affect me I will enjoy the now and stuff future generations of fans

The clubs in London tend to have a more compelling business case for new expanded stadia, they have a allot more tourism which they can attract to match day crowds, also, they have the business demand/infrastructure so the stadia can be used for business conferences/meetings etc, Music Concerts etc, bringing in extra revenue.

Stadiums like Highbury & White Hart Lane could not be expanded, as they did not have space to expand into being in the middle of built-up communities, so they had no option but to move to remain competitive, they could also sell their old sites for huge sums due to the price of housing/land un London.

We have been able to expand Anfield by buying the old run down housing surrounding and developing the stadium.

I still think that was the best way to go to keep us competitive on & off the pitch, as we have seen, we cannot raise ticket prices significantly to bring in extra revenue, they can do this in London and people will pay, it is just a different economic model.

If we would have built a new Stadium 5 years ago, I doubt we would have won the CL & PL, as we would not have had the funds to buy/pay the likes of VvD, Alisson, Fab & Salah (to name a few).

These days I don't think London is a different model Manchester is one of the fastest growing economies in Europe. Go to Manchester and have a look. That spans the whole of the north west region warrington halfway between the two is due to be a city next few years.

Everton seem to share my view are their board of directors and business advisers idiots ? I think not.

Short term yes save money on the ground spend it on players but neglect the long term and sooner or later you will be found out. However FSG will be long gone by then and probably so will I

But Goodison Park has less than 40k seat capacity and they probably cannot expand, so they have no choice. That said, their owners look to have more to offer than FSG in terms of investment, though that's not very difficult

Everton are looking long term and their site on the waterfront is very impressive indeed. Lets all hope I am wrong and a decent stadium does not matter
