Some interesting lateral thinking here. As regards the dead mileage from/to Gillmoss for the 471/2, there's no reason why these buses couldn't operate in service between Liverpool and Gillmoss and provide a link between Aintree and Arrowe Park hospitals. With the exception of Avon's services, there are no cross-river services that operate beyond Liverpool city centre.

The alternative is for Stagecoach to find a larger site. Perhaps it could demolish the houses built on the land Crosville sold about twenty years ago when it was in the process of down-sizing at RF. I always thought that was a silly decision but I suppose it made financial sense at the time.
