New Everton Stadium

[davek]

Sound, but we arent celebrating Bramley Moore by building a stadium in his name.

It's often referred to as BMD Stadium. We've all done it and even official club documents call it that as well. That needs to end now. And I'll be surprised if the club aren't looking closely at Bramley Moores' commercial history and swerving any association with his name.

I had never heard of him till Dave decided to find a new hill to die on. I very very much doubt he had a clue till 5.00pm today neither.

We'll it's hardly a cause (toppling statues / ending name association) that I've championed. I look at this through the prism of what's best for Everton...or should we just wait for the attention to be focussed on the issue and the club by outsiders who might use it to damage us?

Yeah Dave, I can imagine the club has its brightest minds tracing his CV from 300 years ago.

Plot twist, nobody but you is arsed.

Usmanov hasnt given us 30m to name the stadium after a slave trader.

If you want the site renamed, then get onto the council.

Nah.

Its a nonsense that will be forgotten soon.

Bramley Moore made his fortune off slaves cutting sugar cane and picking coffee.

It's relevant. It's not going to go away.

George William Goodison was a man who had 3 slaves in his employment.

Well, I wouldn't call it 'nonsense'.

He was a civil engineer. He worked for the Corpy.

Did they have indentured slaves in Walton?

If you had pointed this out 3 years ago, you would appear sane. As it is, (and you dont even know if he was a slaver), its a Friday night crusade that one person in the universe gives a crap about.

The Black lives matter Stadium.
Breaking news. All premier league players will wear shirts with black lives matter on the back of their shirts instead of their names when football resumes

No mate. Does it ;ook like this is going away any toime son?

Footy clubs are VERY nervous about any association with controversy and exclusivity. Everton perhaps more so than others.

It was around the turn of century when George W. Goodison moved back to Merseyside and took up residence at Beech Lawn in Waterloo. He is now 57 years old and his wife is 55. There is no mention of children. The couple has three servants employed at their home two of which are sisters.
