Yeah, I'd heard that. But what attendances do their women get; 5-10k? It's perfect for that usage. As for Maine Road; yeah, it's a shame it isn't around any more. It would have been great if it could have been saved, to be used by the community around Moss Side and South Manchester. But I guess the money the club got for it was useful when fitting out the new stadium. I don't think the women's team even existed back in the early noughties, did it?Goodison still being used for Women’s team though
Wish we could have done same with Maine Rd
I know the politics of it and we are where we are because of this especially with Sheikh MansourIt couldn’t be done, as part of the deal was for Maine Road to be taken over by MCC and turned into housing.
That’s why the deal was so favourable for us.
That thought just crossed my mind. Wonder if history will repeat itself with the score.It’s mad how fixtures for occasions like this pan out, Southampton were our last opponents at Maine Road…….where typical of us we were beaten of course
Err, a state of the art multi million pound brand new stadium? That will more than likely stop them.Bit of bollocks about the last match as the stadium is not being demolished.
What is to stop them playing pre-season games or even normal games there again?
I think it’s very likely they’ll knock most of the stands down. No point spending money maintaining old infrastructure for sentimental reasons when they only need a 5,000 - 10,000 seat stadium for the women’s team.Bit of bollocks about the last match as the stadium is not being demolished.

Didn’t take long for this post to become obsolete.That thought just crossed my mind. Wonder if history will repeat itself with the score.
Oh I didn’t know they’d scored. Scouse cunts.I hope Everton lose without scoring a goal
Rather OAPs than OSCs.Wheeled out hoards of ex-players, so I figure some supporters will miss out through lack of seats.

It’s the last game there for the men’s team now they’ve given it to the wimmin.
We’ve been there, it’s an awful but exciting feeling.
What the fuck is the City legend Joe Royle doing there?Wheeled out hoards of ex-players, so I figure some supporters will miss out through lack of seats.
