David Moyes' Everton earned a dramatic late point from the last Merseyside derby at Goodison Park. Liverpool FC/Liverpool FC via Getty ImagesThe result sees Everton move up to 15th in the Premier League table while Liverpool extend their lead at the top to seven points "As an Everton manager I had some brilliant times here before but I think tonight because I'm just back and having had very little time with the players seeing the growing impact the players are having on the supporters and vice versa "We want to get back to being a big club again We've got a job to do this year first of all to stay a Premier League club but then we have to try to kick on." Wednesday's game was the last Merseyside derby to be staged at Goodison Park with Everton set to move to their new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock next season "I think it was hugely important that Evertonians get to finish off at this stadium as best as they can," Moyes said I just feel like the support in here was unbelievable tonight I think it was fitting that they got an end like they did."

Goodison is and will forever be the club's spiritual home Having spent close to a decade playing at Anfield in the late 19th century the Blues relocated in 1892 following a dispute with land-owner John Houlding -- who subsequently went on to form a rival team: Liverpool Football Club With Liverpool's inception having been born from acrimony it is perhaps little wonder that the relationship between the two city rivals has always carried an extra edge Goodison has become an institution in its own right playing host to some of the world's greatest players "It is a kind of a 'Last of the Mohicans,'" actor and lifelong Evertonian Andrew Gower tells ESPN they would tell you tales of Pelé and Eusébio "It also speaks on behalf of the community I grew up around Goodison Park and people have given their lives to the community there We should be very proud as Evertonians of what goes on and how much goes into the community there." For Gower, Wednesday night will be particularly special, with Gustaffson set to perform "Lights Under Goodison" live before the game in the stadium's Fan Zone. "As a band, you don't always want to try and speak on behalf of a fanbase because everybody has their own individual memories and relationship with Goodison Park, but the response from the fans has been incredible," Gower says. "They've welcomed it with open arms. "When Everton unite as a fanbase, especially at Goodison, I personally feel that there's no other fanbase like us. Sometimes it takes a lot for us to unite but, when we do, as we have done in the last couple of years with back-to-back relegation battles, the scenes at Goodison Park and the collective energy I've felt at that stadium is unmatched. "I always say imagine if Everton won something again, that united energy would be off the scale. Gary Neville, Gary Lineker -- they all talk about Goodison under the lights and say when the gantry shakes there's nothing like it." One of the places referenced in "Lights Under Goodison" is The Winslow Hotel, which is located on Goodison Road, in the shadow of the stadium. And Gustaffson are also set to perform the song live at the venue on Wednesday night. Nicknamed "The People's Pub" -- a reference to the moniker of "The People's Club," handed to Everton by Moyes during his first spell in charge -- The Winslow opened its doors in 1886 and has been home to the Everton Supporters (Goodison) Club for close to three decades. Derby wins at Goodison have been relatively hard to come by for both Liverpool and Everton in recent years. The hosts clinched a famous victory over Jürgen Klopp's side last term, signalling the end of Liverpool's already-faltering title charge, while the Reds have secured just two wins in their last 10 league trips across Stanley Park. Four of the last seven meetings between the two sides at Goodison have ended in a goalless draw, with the desire of both sets of players to claim the local bragging rights often leading to tense, highly charged encounters. "It means more as a local player because we know what it's about," former Liverpool striker John Aldridge, who was born and raised in the city, tells ESPN. "We live in the city so we know what it means. "When I was a kid, I used to get so nervous for the Merseyside derby. I wouldn't sleep. You'd be going into school on the Monday and getting ripped by the Evertonians if you lost. "This is a really important game for both sides. Liverpool are obviously fighting to win the title so there's a lot riding on it. Everton would love nothing more than to stop Liverpool winning the league." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Everton Stadium (@evertonstadium) Last season, the Everton supporters took great pleasure in their team doing just that as goals from Jarrad Branthwaite and Dominic Calvert-Lewin secured a famous 2-0 win for the hosts Chants of "You lost the league at Goodison Park," could be heard echoing around the terraces -- a taunt first coined in 2019 when a goalless draw at Goodison saw Liverpool cede their grip on the title to eventual champions Manchester City -- and Aldridge is under no illusions about the fact Moyes' side will be looking to repeat that trick again on Wednesday "Goodison means a lot to Evertonians and we want to spoil the party especially after what happened last year," he says "We were outfought and outbattled so we need to make sure that doesn't happen again." So far this season, Everton and Liverpool have enjoyed vastly contrasting fortunes. Following Klopp's departure in the summer, new head coach Slot seems to have reinvigorated a team that, by the end of last term, looked some way off competing with Manchester City and Arsenal at the top of the table Liverpool are six points clear of second-place Arsenal, with September's shock defeat to Nottingham Forest the only major blot on Slot's copybook though the fact three of those victories have come in their last three games should offer some encouragement to those of a Blue persuasion I think that could be a platform for the rest of the season," says Bond "I couldn't even put into words what a win would mean to Everton fans and play0:32Nicol: Everton lacked heart in FA Cup lossSteve Nicol believes that Everton lacked heart during their last FA Cup game at Goodison against Bournemouth While Wednesday will mark the end of an historic chapter for Everton The club unveiled their plans to build a new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock back in March 2017 and against the backdrop of the club's myriad struggles on and off the pitch in recent years the prospect of the move has remained a rare shining light for many supporters Everton have spent the past few years as a club in flux they were handed two separate points deductions for breaching the Premier League's financial rules while a need to avoid further infringements left Dyche and his staff significantly stymied in the transfer market Texas-based consortium The Friedkin Group agreed on a deal to take over Everton owner Farhad Moshiri's 94.1% controlling stake in the club with the takeover having been officially ratified in December Everton will be able to put some of their recent struggles behind them But taking a stride towards the future will inevitably have some repercussions for many of the businesses synonymous with the club's past "The move to Bramley-Moore has been seven years in the making so I have been looking at different contingency plans and different options down there but I walked away from all of those because it just didn't stack up financially," Bond says "Obviously because of the connection between The Winslow and Everton it is extremely difficult but we're just going to have to adapt We're going to run coaches on a matchday from the Winslow and a lot of the feedback from the fans has been quite positive we're in talks with Sefton City Council about a possible joint venture at Salt and Tar in Bootle to utliise it as an Everton matchday venue with a Park and Ride service to Bramley-Moore But the whole ritual around the new stadium is going to be entirely difficult to how it is at Goodison Park." the focus remains firmly on the present and there would be no finer way to commemorate Goodison's final season than to put their city rivals to the sword although we mock each other over Stanley Park it will be special for a lot of those away fans coming to Goodison for the last time because it's played a big part in their lives as well," Gower says and if we do get the three points it will be a special way to draw the curtain on the last Merseyside derby at Goodison Park."

commitment to modernisation Recognizing the need to keep pace with evolving standards Desley and Les undertook significant renovations to keep the service station up to date The transformation culminated in the rebranding to Caltex a move that has been well-received by the community Everton Park Service Station has evolved into a multifaceted hub offering a range of services to meet the diverse needs of its customers Desley and Les found many ways to embed their passion into the business; the station transitioned from a quick pick-up-and-go food bar to a comprehensive car servicing and repair centre complete with logbook servicing for new cars Desley and Les’ vision of a mini dealership service centre But Everton Park Service Station is more than just transactional business; it stands as testament to Desley and Les’s deep-rooted connection to the community they call home Having bought their first home in Everton Park in 1976 they have been active members of the local fabric for decades have also played integral roles in the family business After 20 years of ownership at Everton Park and 30 years at their Albany Creek workshop Desley and Les’s passion for what they do

Section attended and – assisted by the National Police Air Service – tracked the bikes from Everton to Croxteth which one of the riders attempted to avoid causing his bike to be ridden into a police vehicle on Croxteth Hall Lane He fell from the bike and sustained slight injuries The man received treatment in hospital before being discharged and detained by officers The second bike was ridden to a wooded area off Alder Lane close to the M57 where he was in collision with a tree Officers performed first aid to a leg injury he sustained and he was taken to hospital by the North West Ambulance Service for further treatment An 18-year-old man from Gilmoss was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving driving otherwise than in accordance with a licence and driving without valid insurance A 21-year-old man from Kirkby was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving driving otherwise than in accordance with a licence and possession of a Class B controlled drug (cannabis) Roads Policing Inspector Jason Higham said “The risk of bikes being ridden anti-socially and dangerously can be devastating and our Roads Policing Unit work hard to proactively stop people from taking their own safety and that of others into their own hands “We co-ordinated efforts with the National Police Air Service and across departments in the force to make sure the suspects in this case could be detained “I hope this demonstrates that when incidents like this are spotted or reported we can utilise a wide variety of tactics to pursue offenders drones and partnership work with the National Police Air Service helicopter “All are carried out by highly trained specialists with the safety of other road users paramount at all times.” the safest way to deal with the problem is always to identify where suspected stolen or illegally used vehicles are stored so we can seize them before anyone is put at risk on the roads in the first place “We proactively respond to all intelligence about stolen vehicles and I encourage anyone with information to let us know so we can take positive action “Each and every seizure like this one prevents further risk on the roads.” If you have any information about suspected stolen or illegally owned/ridden scrambler bikes or illegal electric motorcycles please contact Merseyside Police via @MerPolCC 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555

All rights reserved Two Liverpool organisations have applied to manage and operate two of Liverpool’s Lifestyles centres it was announced that Liverpool City Council was beginning a process which would ask for expressions of interest from external organisations to take over the running of Everton Park and Park Road Lifestyles The ambition is for any new service provider to adopt an innovative and sustainable approach which will ensure the venues remain a vital community asset As part of the Community Asset Transfer process City of Liverpool Gymnastics Foundation has formally submitted an interest in taking over the Park Road venue and St Joseph Catholic Multi Academy Trust has put itself forward in relation to Everton Park Lifestyles The City of Liverpool Gymnastics Foundation is already based at Park Road and is one of Britain’s most successful gymnastics clubs with a worldwide reputation for excellence St Joseph Multi Academy Trust is responsible for Notre Dame Catholic Academy which is located next to Everton Park Lifestyles and pupils utilise the centre The Council has welcomed the interests from both organisations and has been working closely with them to complete an assurance and due diligence process before a final decision on the future of both leisure centres is made The continuing process will ensure a comprehensive and robust business plans are submitted including a continued commitment to community use Once diligence – from all parties involved – has been undertaken a recommendation will be presented to Cabinet later this year which is when a final decision will be made Council Tax payers are increasingly having to subsidise the centres – the average cost per visit to Everton Park is £15.85 and for Park Road it is £19.85 – compared to an average of £8.20 per visit for all Lifestyles facilities across the city The Lifestyles service must deliver £990,000 of saving as part of the Council’s Medium Term Financial Plan – but is currently £3.4million overspent each year across all 8 Lifestyles venues staff would be relocated to one of the Council’s Lifestyles fitness centres including the newly refurbished Peter Lloyd Lifestyles which reopened its doors earlier this month To learn more about the Community Asset Transfer (CAT) process, visit the City Council’s dedicated web pages The CAT policy and programme has recently been reviewed and updated – this review has no impact on the current process and scoring criteria in place for the Lifestyles Centres on Wednesday (24 July) a City Council Extraordinary Meeting takes place at Liverpool Town Hall to debate a motion raised relating to maintaining and improving the Lifestyles estate Liverpool City Council’s Cabinet Member for Health Councillor Harry Doyle said: “To have two strong formal expressions of interest from such well-established and respected Liverpool organisations is a positive step forward I know how important our leisure centres are to our communities that’s why we took the decision in December 2023 to seek expressions of interest from community organisations organisations that can access funding we can’t in order to improve and future-proof these vital assets “We have a strong track record when it comes to Community Asset Transfers and it’s a process which really empowers communities and local organisations to shape their local area for the better but we hope that we can move forward with a new way of working very soon.” Everton are considering making Goodison Park the new home for the club’s women’s team The men’s team are set to leave their historic Goodison Park home of 133 years to the Everton Stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock at the start of the 2025-26 Premier League season The 52,888-seater stadium — a £760million ($958m) development including ancillary works — is viewed as a necessary upgrade to Goodison Park’s capacity of 39,500 The departure of the men’s team has opened the possibility of Everton Women according to sources who wished to remain anonymous to protect relationships Everton Women currently play their home matches at Walton Hall Park a 2,200-capacity stadium (500 seats) located in Walton Walton Hall Park has been the team’s home since 2020 the home of National League North side Southport FC located almost 20 miles north of the city Walton Hall Park’s limitations — its size, location from the city centre, lack of appropriate seating, lack of shelter from the elements and restricted catering options — however, are not seen as conducive to growing the profile and appeal of the women’s team for potential fans, a goal set by new owners The Friedkin Group (TFG) The ground is owned by Liverpool Council and rented by the club meaning any facility enhancement would need to be agreed in conjunction with the council TFG has vowed to invest significantly in the women’s team This was reflected in the January transfer window as the club brought in five players including midfielder Hayley Ladd from Manchester United France forward Kelly Gago from Nantes and the loan signing of Barcelona defender Martina Fernandez in a boost to Brian Sorensen’s historically underfunded side A move to Goodison Park is perceived as another sign of the owners’ ambition to breathe life back into the two-time FA Cup winners The WSL also has a league-wide average attendance target every season as part of the Partnership Agreement with the collective clubs While individual teams are not held to specific attendance targets growing average attendance remains a priority for clubs to consider The option of making Goodison Park the full-time home of the women’s team arrives as the future of the historic ground remains unknown the club submitted an outline for the Goodison Legacy Project to local government The plan suggested several ways in which the 3.39-hectare site can remain an important community asset beyond the Everton men’s departure Moving Everton Women to Goodison Park full-time is viewed as not a replacement for the Legacy Project but a means of supplementing it No decision on the Legacy Project and a possible move for the women’s team can be made until the men’s first team officially leave the ground and relocate to the new stadium only Leicester City share the club’s main stadium with the men’s team for all home matches though Arsenal Women committed to playing 11 matches at the Emirates this season Brighton & Hove Albion submitted a proposal in 2023 to build a new purpose-built stadium for the women’s team by 2027-28 A breathless and brilliant first look at

introduced under an Experimental Traffic Regulation Order (ETRO), went live two weeks ago today (on Monday 17 February) to coincide with Everton FC’s inaugural match at the stunning waterfront stadium at Bramley Moore-Dock.  A major public consultation was launched as part of the ETRO and the Council has so far received 4,895 responses Based on feedback from businesses and residents in the city’s North Docks community as well as initial findings from that historic event the Council will now implement changes to its operation.  The process to modify the ETRO to implement these initial recommendations (including new signage) will begin to be enacted within the next three months The ETRO enables the Council to make these changes flexibly in the light of experience and analysis of their impact on a day-to-day basis Further changes may also be made following the further two stadium Test Events and throughout the 18-month process up to August 2026.  the Council will also explore the scope for on-street pay and display parking bays in key locations to identify options Following these amendments and improvements the Council’s Highways team will continue to monitor the impact of the ETRO to determine whether this has positively assisted businesses and public opinion and if other amendments are required When and where do the ETRO measures apply?The new measures introduced in the zone which radiates out via a 30-minute walk from the stadium operate between the hours of 10am to midnight each day.North of Boundary Street South of Boundary Street it is operative 12 months of the year This is except for the Great Homer Street area which operates 8am to midnight all year round.The ETRO is to run until August 2026 but Liverpool City Council will be seeking to review and amend the measures within the first six months before the new football season begins in August The measures can be made permanent before August 2026 What about Blue Badge holders?Blue Badge holders can park for as long as they need to within the permit parking areas in the experimental zone and for up to three hours on a yellow line (unless a loading ban is in place) Badge holders can also park on yellow lines but they will need to clearly display their badge and blue parking clock as well as ensuring the vehicle is not causing an obstruction.For Blue Badge holders wishing to attend a football match at the stadium Everton FC is in the process of exploring how it enhances its current parking offer to complement other transport arrangements such as the free shuttle bus service for disabled fans said: “Since the Experimental Parking Zone went live on the day of Everton’s first test event the Council has been listening to all the feedback and analysing what we can do to make improvements “We understand the concerns being raised by businesses residents and fans and we’ve wasted no time in assessing the necessary amendments that can be introduced as quickly as possible “The measures that can be amended to alleviate concerns on issues like waiting times and number of permits will be considered as a priority The major concerns from the first event around road closures and street lighting are also being addressed to ensure they are remedied by the second test event at the end of March “We are also working closely with colleagues at the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority Merseytravel and Merseyrail on their plans for public transport provision and we are in in active dialogue with them and Everton to ensure changes and improvements are made.” Cabinet Member for Transport and Connectivity said: “Given this is an experimental zone and we are in the test event stage “I want to reassure everyone the Council is actively looking to make the necessary improvements to help businesses especially as we build up to the final test event in May and then the start of the new football season in August “The Council is keen to continue talking to businesses to explain the process and to hear how the measures and amendments are impacting their staff and customers and how we can work together to make improvements quickly “A key aim of the Experimental Zone is tackling the problem of commuter parking 365 days a year as well as illegal and unsafe parking on double yellow lines and pavements These issues impact the area all year round and it’s vital we get this right to support its economic development and to tackle congestion especially as more businesses set up here and more residential schemes are developed.”
