Just wondered if the new Everton ground will remove our “claim to fame” as being the closest ground to the river Mersey ?

No.

It's on the Estuary which is tidal, therefore not a river.

Que Reckless he's more up on it

Quite correct Doss, it is officially on the estuary there, before it is recognised as the river

Actually the term Estuary English relates to the Thames Estuary and as an accent is a mix of Cockney and Received Pronunciation. Nothing to do with Scouse.

Hence my post about Scouse being the new version of it...
