Was just about to post about that, @davek will listen with interest.Listened to the beginning. Will finish later. Not quite what you may have been expecting. But should provoke some interesting debate...

It’s a good listen, and valid points raised.
Seen the issue popping up regularly now as well. Derby have had issues with stadium ownership, im sure Sheffield Wednesday have as well.The thought of not owning our own ground sends shivers and immediately reminds me of how Coventry City could go from owning and playing at Highfield Road for 106 years (34 years in the top flight) to a new stadium and end up being homeless and ground sharing in the lower divisions.

I'm pretty sure the dock history is what the refurbished pump house if going to display.It’s a good listen, and valid points raised.
I’m sure the club will include the history of the site and John Bramley-Moore’s past in some way.

Villa sold Villa Park as well mate, very rarely see it mentioned.
All i've seen re: Sheff Wed / Derby was problems as a result of it.
Whether the individuals in charge gained more money from it rather than the club gaining more from it, I dont know.
Coventry is the prime example why you cant let your stadium be at somebody elses control.
I have posted about this before. I wonder if Moshiri might get the money back he has so far invested in EFC if he were to pay for the stadium and then sell the football club and keep BMD, renting it back to Everton FC on a 99 year lease or similar? He'd have a cash cow which he might even decide to sell on and EFC would have a new home which even though rented generates far more money than GP did do and makes them a more prospective prospect to a new owner.
Was it bollocks, it was a hit piece by a local hack.The article on the The Athletic today that goes with the podcast is a surprisingly (given Hughes is a massive Kopite) nuanced and sensitive take on issues that, as a city, we tend to not want to look at.
They've already stated they would...Hughes undoubtedly knew that and never piped up in that whole piece of his or the half hour podcast.Hughes' piece has a lot of holes in it, and ultimately feels like a way to take swipes at the club as a Kopite. Where's his reference to the stand that bares the name of a manager who defended a racist across the park? Ah no, can't mention that.
The club moved on from calling it Bramley Moore a while back, but yes, it is an opportunity for education. You can't touch the wall that has "BRAMLEY MOORE DOCK" carved into it, so use it as a way to teach, which the club will most likely do
Add a plaque, like the city has done for many of the other places named about slavers and continue to teach people

Everton need to go after him and the Athletic and demand a clarification and a retraction.
