Mersey rivals begin ground share talks

LIVERPOOL and Everton have been involved in initial talks over the possibility of sharing a ground.

The city council and the Northwest Development Agency have urged the two Merseyside giants to give consideration to the issue as the long-term solution to the ongoing debate over the future of Anfield and Goodison Park continues.

Public money could be made available for such a project should the two sides end up sharing a stadium, although Liverpool have been swift to reaffirm their commitment to the regeneration of Stanley Park.
