Ed. Noticed lower down that you stayed the club cannot get loans for new stadium.

Could they not use the new stadium as collateral for the loans required to build it?

I am no accountant and therefore don't care but as long as the club can cover any debt then just hope this stadium comes to fruition.

Thanks ed. A lot more positive over this with Mr moshiri in charge. He seems determined to make Everton more successful on and off the field.

Also.
Dont get me wrong. It's great the council are helping us out but seems to only be because mayor Anderson wants the commonwealth games and our stadium will provide the centrepiece of the bid.
I wonder how co-operative they would be if they didn't want the games in our city.

The legacy will be the revival of North Liverpool docklands. Merseyside is increasing population fast and the city is tiny for the amount of visitors to it. We need expansion and this will speed up that process.

Also peel want to invest but at a more leisurely pace. This gives them an excuse to quicken up some of their development for the area and to test the water on whether it is worth 5 bil in investment.

Hope Ronnie Moran gets a good applause as no doubt he will from the Everton fans, be great if the Everonians gave a chorus of only one Seamous Coleman on the 23rd minute to let him know the fans are right behind him, much as the rivalry, Ihave no doubt some reds will applaud as well.

Hi Baz mate, red here in peace . We will definitely applaud Seamus Coleman . We sympathise with him and respect that he was in injured while defending his country very much like a soldier. Hope he makes a full recovery and he is back to his best inthe future. n.

Tickets bought for me and the old man for the Chelsea game, can't wait, been too long for the both of us.

Hi Ed, noticed on the rumours page you said the scouting system at the club has changed a lot.

Can you tell us how? Not that it's important, just curious.

{Ed002's Note - Steve Walsh has arrived and has been joined by Laurence Stewart an new chief scout Martyn Glover - but still of course they get trashed by the Everton fans. I find that stuff a great embarrassment to read sadly Hugo.}

Fortunately Ed that post referring to our inability to scout a decent forward whilst misinformed doesn't reflect the views of many who post on here. I am particularly excited by the business we have done post Steve Walsh and co'.

{Ed002's Note - Good TA - good to hear.}

Some people are never happy, Ed!

I have to say the moaners are in a very small minority now. I was one last season. with good reason I believe. But as soon as Mr Walsh arrived my view completely changed. I knew of his history only from the media but it was obvious that he worked in the same was as Clough and Peter Taylor did at Forest. In building the team that won the European Cup twice. Taylor would scout the players and leave all the coaching and management matters to Clough. I could see a similar approach at Leicester and hoped that he would work with Koeman in a similar fashion. That indeed seems to be what is happening and so far very successfully. Gana, Calvert-Lewin and Lookman are all quality in my eyes. I hope for many more of this quality to come in and Koeman can work his magic in turning them into a unit. I expect us to sign a young central defender, a young center forward and another creative midfielder. Probably from lower leagues or ones not needed at another club. Danny Drinkwater and Marc Albrighton at Leicester were not exactly setting the world alight throughout their careers but in the unit of Leicester City with the flair of Marez make an exceptional unit. let's see who we sign and how Koeman sets up a midfield to challenge the rest. Gana is the start of that I believe.

Spot on Toffee Ace I would go as far as to say the majority of fans are made up with the progress so far since the take over. Unfortunately the few that are not tend to be the ones that make most noise.

More importantly it seems Lukaku is not happy with our buying policy. Although, I believe he will find any excuse to get his move away from the club.
