Everton in new Ground-Share link

Liverpool council have announced they have given Liverpool Football Club approval to start thinking about one day starting work on the stadium.

"This gives us options for sure" Rafa announced when asked about his opinion on the topic.

The new vote of confidence from the council improves the prior council approval back in February.  Under the early approval Liverpool had been approved, to request approval, to think about one day getting approval to build a new stadium.

Back in February when Rafa was greeted with this news he publicly announced "This gives us options for sure."

Along with the approval is pre-approval for Liverpool Football Club to have a 999 year lease on the land in Stanley Park.  Gary Speed's retirement is expected to coincide with when the lease expires.

Plans for a ground-share with Everton are continued to be denied. Early plans had considered giving each club a trophy room on either side of the field; however, surveyours rubbished these plans as they said the field would start to slope towards the Liverpool end due to extra weight.

Everton had countered suggesting a life-size/weight statute of former Everton striker, Wayne Rooney, being placed in the Everton trophy room to balance the weight distribution.

We asked Everton manager David Moyes his opinion and he commented "this gives us options for sure".

Later we discovered that we had been duped into a fake interview with Moyes by Rafa Benitez in a halloween mask and a wig made of ginger fibres.
