Has this got anything to do with a tie up with Wor Kenny's football tours?

I wouldn't be surprised. I think he's back in business again after being banned for 5 years.

Wor Kenny ?

Just seen they've called it The Everton Stadium (obv until a sponsorship deal is in place), well that's crap. Bramley Moore Dock Stadium sounds much better.

It was never referred to as Bramley Moore by the club, most likely due to John Bramley-Moore's history as a slave trader.

This is because it used to serve as the junction station for the subway and Liverpools second major terminal station, Exchange.

Wor Kenny ?

His brother he worked a few quid to when last here to organise Everton pre-season tours.

Do Liverpool council actually have any money to sort anything? long time since I lived up there so bit out of the loop in regards to stuff like that.

Not in any real sense, I would imagine the most they can do is organise some buses to take people to and from the stadium and probably charge the football club for it. They have some money to improve the train station, but they are spending it on a ramp and a footbridge. really that needs a covered waiting area for fans and for them to reinstate the old platforms, there used to be 4 and now there are only 2.

I was down there at the weekend and had to go back and forth between the Liver Building and BMD.

Weather on Sunday was the absolute pits, so tried to use those VOI scooters. A nightmare with the rain feeling like ice and wind blowing you backwards.

Going to be some tough, tough days down there when its like that.

Spotted this on Twitter - the boozers (or planned boozers) are beginning to spring up now.

True, and theres plenty that would use it as a stick to beat us with

I doubt it's because of that imo. They're fine with referencing the name Dixie on all official channels. It's probably a marketing thing the way they insisted labelling the crest with Everton.

Here’s a question for season ticket holders who had 23+ tenure…as the first people to be able to buy seats, did you have the pick of the entire stadium (except for the corporate stuff of course) or had the club already ‘greyed out’ the seats that will be offered for general sale on a match by match basis? If they didn’t do that, presumably the general sale seats will be the ‘leftovers’ after all ST holders and the ‘12 March newbies’ have selected their seats by 31 March.

It's a fair point. Walk in and you see a badge with its motto upside down.

Not exactly the optimum use of the space for observers.

It's a daft mistake easily rectified. I suggest they do it.

I want our latin speaking players reading it before each game. I want them to read it over and over until they realise, they haven't listened to a word Moyesy has said. That's the Everton we know and love.

Probably the wrong thread, but as we get closer to Goodison being pulled down, I'm increasingly struggling with the thought of specifically the Bullens and Gwladys getting bulldozed. Someone on the peoples forum last night had the great idea of a new national football museum being put in place. Surely it's not beyond the realms of possibility that those two stands could be converted into a football museum amongst the legacy project?

If there's any structures in UK football that should be preserved in some creative way, it's those two stands.
