The first test game was a disaster on that front. Load of complaints around how the nearest train station couldn't cope at all

Always was going to happen. The ground is awkward to get to on a good day let alone when thousands are all heading in the same direction. I went to take a look with some Everton supporting mates when it was being built and we all said the same that it is going to be a real bitch to get in and out of. Hopefully they have learned something this weekend and will get more on top of it but it is still going to be a nightmare to visit.

The parking zone they've introduced is vast and isn't just implemented on matchdays, but all the time.

The Experimental Traffic Road Order (ETRO) will run for up to 18 months and covers the area within a 30-minute walk of Everton Stadium.

Agreed. Think Cantona is too high personally. Above Kane!?

It's such a conversation/argument starter though.

Andy Cole at 33 popped out at me.

 

[Dire Wolf]

I'd have Scholes higher than Lampard.

 

[Mel Evo]

Juninho only so low due to the club he played for.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Brad Freidel at 65.
