Contracts exchanged for Bramley Moore Dock to build the new stadium, a little bit of good news.

Greta news that Southern. We may get to see some plans soon then.

I am with you both on that, vital for the area and the jobs etc that will be created must be worth millions for Liverpool.

according to elstone they want to put planning permission in by the new year sounds to me that they have the funding in place and once planning is approved we will start work.
{Ed002's Note - Who do you think has funding is in place? And how long do you think it will take to get planning approval?}

As far as I am aware the local council are funding it and planning permission could take anything up to a couple of years, unless I am mistaken.
{Ed002's Note - Right on Geoff. I was worried we would get all on the moaners back when it is not finished by Easter.}

We will have the biggest ground in the championship?
only joking lads, we have to laugh at ourselves, for now.

Just some plans will do. Then we can just salivate and moan until it's built.

Having a father who is an architect I know you can’t put a time limit on the planning there is a period that notice has to be up for so any local objections can be made plans need to be approved by the council planning department and these are just a couple of the stages and you can’t assign a fixed timescale at this point.

It's not going to be that straight forward. there will be lots and lots of arbitration re the environmental side of things. especially given its setting. have to demonstrate no environmental impact on area. etc etc, then there will be the financial planning. phased release of funds, site planning, building plans, infrastructure plans, third party input. especially with consideration for third party investment for area. I think this is 5-10 years in making. and I'll be honest i'm more concerned with on pitch activity right now.
{Ed025's Note - me too jcl..

that's not to say work on the site won't start as lots of hurdles need overcoming on the site before work on the stadium will start hence why I said work will start ease up ED it's the first good news we have had for a while.
{Ed002's Note - You think Everton will be starting woring on the site illegally. Brilliant.}
