i understand that if the we were to ground share then we would be able to apply to the North West Development Fund for £20 M towards the project so that would bring the cost down from £84M to £64 and then assuming Eveton paid half it would mean we only pay £32M for a new 60,000 stadium (saving £52M).
So while it is asking a lot to share the offer must be taken seriously. Personally i think if it secures us financially for the future then i dont want pride to get in the way Weve seen how quickly clubs can get financially screwed, it happened to Leeds and clubs all accross Europe- we are not imune to this just because of our history, if Benitez is a flop (which i dont think he will be) we will really have to watch the pennys.
Having said that i dont think they will go for it because the idea has been mentioned before and Parry seemed dead against it. Also the board must be on the verge of nervous breakdowns at the moment the summer theyve had they probably cant be bothered to have any more meetings.
