    If you google , 757 or 789. or 798 million . Around the same , and regarded as overpriced and over budget

    Around a third of the budget went on backhanders and payoffs.

    No doubt. Don’t get me started on difference between quote and final cost of Olympic Stadium. Not to mention the difference between quote and cost of conversion to football stadium .

    18th (Luton) v 15th (Brentford)
    20th (Sheff U) v 19th (Burnley)
    16th (Everton) v 17th (Forest)

    It’s a huge weekend at the bottom of the PL.
    Imagine if Forest go and win at Everton? <laugh>

    Whatever happens with points deductions, relegation, etc, Everton are in a big mess of their own doing.

    If the deal to sell the club they've agreed falls through it could be the biggest collapse since the Baltimore Bridge.

    They’ll have the best stadium in the Conference though.

    I know they’re still in big bother overall but that’s Everton about safe in the PL for another season after tonight’s result.

    Klopp going out with a whimper ...

    ... that was a gutless performance from Liverpool and Dyche had the better of him.

    Cracking local derby that. Form means nothing.

    Liverpools form is poor. Not won in 3 (4 now).

    had it on the iPad and Utd on the dodgy stick. Cracking evening’s entertainment!

    They won twice last week - Atalanta and Fulham, both away from home. Overall though they’ve been poor lately and Salah looks half the player he once was.

    Liverpool's time has come and gone again. The Team that Klopp put together for the 2 CL back to back finals is something that comes along once every 20 year or so. They were great to watch, like Barcelona 2011, but all good things comes to an end. Not that I'm arsed like, but Man City just keep going and going.

    Doesn't sound good.
    I just cant get the situation at Everton. Appear to be falling apart financially but they are building a £500m new stadium.
    This will give them massive potential for any owner but going to cost someone a **** load to bail them out first.

    From what I can see They owe 777 some £200m. They had pledged another £15m but don’t appear to have a pot to piss in at the moment An almighty mess but unless 777 get their act together any new potential owners are going to have a **** load of debt to deal with. Massive potential but looks a right mess at the minute

    Its been bobbling along for months now, this. Once 777 had asked for more time a couple of weeks ago, the alarm bells should have been clanging loud but it seems no one at the EPL or the FA took any notice....
