Possibly one or two new people have been born in Liverpool in the past 70 years.

Koukash mentioned Sefton

The only grounds I can think of in Sefton are Haig Avenue or New Bucks Park.

Will he give the team a ridiculous name like Southport Sandgrounders or Bootle Boot Boys?

Plus City of Liverpool FC are hoping to build a 5000 capacity stadium in Fazakerley. This is classed as Liverpool but is on the border of Knowsley and Sefton. https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/li ... d-15563795

He might be thinking of a link up with Southport FC. As for the argument about a successful Liverpool club taking fans from other clubs ,that is a non starter.

Why a non starter ?
Of course it depends on a number of factors. Whethere any current or POTENTIAL fans of those clubs currently travel from outside the locality (especially any from "Liverpool" itself) to attend games, the success of the new club, compared to the success (or lack of it) from the clubs mentioned and of course the old rugby league issue of promotion and advertising.
What if for instance, Widnes were languishing in the lower half of the Championship (or worse) ?
Would youn Billy from Widnes be drawn to the "glitz and glamour" of a new successful Liverpool side or would he prefer to go with his home town club ?
In my previous post, I mentioned large numbers of folk from Wakefield being drawn in by Bull Mania and they were more than happy to travel the 20+ miles to watch an all conquering Bulls side so to call this a non starter is just plain naïve.

In the other code, Wasps upped sticks and moved to Coventry and large numbers of their fans moved with them.

People will travel to watch a successful side.
Of course, there is a hell of a long way to go here and it's pure speculation but, it could happen.

Really, well shame on them. I could NEVER imagine a situation where swathes of let's say Widnesians suddenly thought, you know what I'm fed up of this malarkey, let's go and watch Saints or Wigan I'd like to support a GF winning team

Rugby League is a more parochially supported sport than would draw fans to watch a big city club because it is called Liverpool. The same mentality that will not let Cas & Wakey share a ground & if there would be such a great pull from a big city club , there would only be Leeds, Bradford & Hull operating in Yorkshire.

Spot on 9A (also I didn't want to bring the ground thing up as it gets people 'excited')

The nucleus of fans and certainly those who are supporting Widnes in the Championship would NEVER support another side but, loads of supporters go to watch a game of RL and are not just 100% for their side.
Why else do attendances fluctuate so much and drop so steeply when a side is relegated, with the exception of KR, who's support was commendable during their recent spell in The Championship and where are all of those Bulls fans from a few years ago ?
Do you honestly think that none of them have started watching elsewhere or do you believe that they are merely hibernating, like squirrels in "the longest winter" ??

Better for Mr Koukash to become joint owner of London Broncos and pump money into London Broncos. He could make the team more successful and get national publicity from the national media which is based in London. He still has until June 30 I think to buy new players for London -- a half and couple of big props from the NRL reserve roster.

KouKash, as quoted on the bbc website, reckons buying then re-branding a club is an option.
