Everton Two opens tomorrow and David Moyes will be the special guest!
The new Everton store at Liverpool One will have its official opening ceremony this Friday at 3pm.
The Blues and new retail partner Kitbag are returning to the City Centre and the new store is almost ready to open.
It boasts a massive product range, completely bespoke fittings, stunning visuals, unique memorabilia displays and top level staff, managed by Everton fan Simon Gibson.
The opening follows Saturday's unveiling of the revamped Everton One store at Goodison Park, which saw fans queueing in their hundreds and record takings over the course of the weekend.

"The fans have been asking for it and quite rightly so," chief executive Robert Elstone told evertonTV. "Visibility in the city is important to us, as a major brand and identity in this city we need to be visible.
"The City Centre shop is important for a number of reasons. Fundamentally it is right that the Club has a city centre presence; it says something about our ambition and our status in the city.
"Kitbag have displayed their ambition and put their hands in their pockets. They are fitting out the store to the highest standard and we think that is great because that’s where the Club should be. We also believe it makes good business sense to be there."

If visibility is important in the city, then why on earth is a ground move being considered OUTSIDE of the city!? Surely we cannot be a 'major brand' in Liverpool and visible in Liverpool if we are not even playing football here?? So surely if visibility in this city is an important factor, then why move to Kirkby OUTSIDE OF THE CITY BOUNDARIES. I am Eggstremely confused.

And I heard a rumour that Mike Ashley will be Everton's secret financial backer as he's mates with Bill Kenwright. I'd be happy for his money if he really was a silent backer and left it to Mr Kenwright to run the club. Any thoughts?

Just a quick thanks to people agreeing with me. That's a lot of thumbs up. Cheers. And I agree, Mr Moyes opening the store is EXACTLY what the club DOES need. He is a People's Manager for the People's Club. I just hope Tranmere don't open a store called Tranmere Rovers 3!!!

Phil, Moyesy is allowed a life you know!!! It makes good business sense to have a high profile opening and a little banter with some fans. Moyesy doesnt track every potential target from start to finish, thats for the board and others to do. he will have his shopping list and let others get on and do the negotiating. Leave the man alone, he's a legend in his own lifetime and we dont need fans who dont know what they are talking about fuelling speculation about his day to day life

i wish he has busy tying up contracts and deals for players rather than opening a shop to be honest. We need the squad ready to go at the start of the season not mid september

If you had £25 million, who how would you spend it if you were the mighty David Moyes? Mbia - £10million Manuel Fernandes - Season Loan Joe Ledley - £4m Kyle Naughton - £6m Jermaine Beckford - £2m Patrick Viera - Big pay deal if his contract is expiring. The question really is...WHY WON'T ANYONE BACK US!? Maybe we could donate money to buy just one player? Marseille fans did it and amassed 12 million euros to try and sign Drogba. Come on, let's all agree a transfer target and then dig deep!! Maybe the Everton players could donate one week's wages?! What should really happen in football is to cap the wages to £20,000 a week and transfers capped at £10 million. People may then stay more loyal to their teams and not be swayed by greed. Any thoughts on this?
