Ye right am sure they would, that place is well to small for Morrisons..more like nice price or something like that. also with the new Morrisons opening in newbrighton, all the money they are spending in newbrighton they will want you to go down to that one.. The old netto and that place (forgot what it was called) over the road from the pa will all be knocked down I bet just like the ferry pub did, and more smackhead flats will be put ther....

I was told by a member off staff only a couple of days ago that the Netto was closing down at that it was to be converted to a Morrisons. I was told that all but the Managers would be keeping their jobs.

I liked having Netto there, really handy place to go for milk and butties on my way up to the allotment! I hope Morrisons do nice butties!!

I have also heard on the grapevine, that yes all Netto's have been bought by Asda - however not all of them are being converted into such.

the one in bidston is now an asda. the one in seacombe that is due to close shortly is going to be a morrisons...

but thats what i have heard, not sure whether it's the truth...

the little Morrisons have higher prices though then the bigger stores, unlike Asda Supermarket which prices are the same as the Superstores.

Getting aquainted with singsburys, for the topping up my electric key, hate the dam thing, give me a normal meter any day. well im just getting used to the 2 big bottles of milk from netto for £1.80, think thats brill, doubt they will be that cheep at morrisons. but at least it give seacombe another dimension, i think of morrisons as being a posh shoppers supermarket. i can now say i live at the side of morrisons, sounds more upmarket than netto lol. I wish somebody would do something with that eyesore of a building at the bottom of my road, or pull it down. its stood derelict for years, how sad
