I saw that. The journalist said we are closer to groundshare purely because 'Henry is a pragmatist'
--- Quote --- The best way to ensure delivery of a revenue-enhancing stadium is by sharing the costs with Everton, who have still not ruled it out. Reds, do not forget: Henry is a pragmatist
--- End quote ---
In other words, because Everton haven't ruled it out, and because Henry is said to be a pragmatist, we are now closer than ever to groundshare. Why didn't he include how he saw three pidgeons alighting on his window sill this morning at the same time, an omen if ever there was one. Its speculative bollocks, and seems to have missed out the following:
--- Quote ---Henry was cautious on the thorny subject of the redevelopment of Anfield, although he all but ruled out the prospect of ground-sharing with Merseyside rivals Everton.
'We are not going to make any stadium statements,' said Henry. 'Ground-sharing is very controversial. From what I have heard, it doesn't look appealing to many people.'

So, complete tendentious speculative shite, more or less making stuff up as he goes along in the Guardian there. Moral, read between the lines.

It won't happen.
Onward Liverpudlian:
Hopefully very soon we will see the same steadfast and public 'over my dead body' rejection of grounshare as Moores/Parry used to do - the one major thing they were good at. The only options going forward for us should be our own new ground on the park or even better redevelop Anfield. Either of those things keep most/all of us happy but suggestion of groundshare would split the fanbase in two - i'm sure Henry does not want to throw away all that goodwill. :)
