lets face it we can pay 15mil for one player so why we did not buy the homes of years ago. i know we now own a lot of the homes around the streets now and i am sure someone could come up with a new plan.
Liverpool council can CPO them if they wanted to.
They did it in Edge Lane
not only edge lane mate they`ve used them all over the city including everton and anfield as well, i`m against CPO`s but the council used them to knock down hundreds and hundreds of houses behind the spion kop. that area between walton breck road (the road that the kop backs onto) and robson street is now flattened, it used to be full of streets (herschell street, granton road, hartnup street etc) and boozers but now they are all gone. never mind hundreds there must have been thousands of houses in that area.
as i said i`m against CPO`s but it seems odd to issue them and flatten thousands of houses very near the ground but not to issue them to the ones next to the ground.
