From what little research I have done (Wiki) Bramley-Moore is not connected to the slave trade, apparently he made his money in the sugar trade in the period after the abolition of the slave trade.I hate all this commercial naming nonsense. Its cheap and nasty, stocks two fingers up to history and robs people of part of their cultural identity.
I get the argument about getting money in and others do it, but I draw the line. The media and club can call it what they like - but fans can quite easily own this by and agreeing on and using a name amongst themselves.
And yes - Bramley Moore may have made his cash in the abhorrent slave trade - but this is what the area has been called and its what we've been calling it. I'm fed up to the back teeth having to apologise for what people 100, 200, 300 years ago did and hide history. Let's remember his heinous acts and make sure they're not repeated. (Not that I'm throwing my hat into the ring for that name necessarily....
Still prefer New Goodison as a name. It will be a perpetual reminder to our noisy neighbours that we've built YET ANOTHER ground to play in, to their juicy round vacuous parasitic zero.
‘Look away’ ..... not bad advice at times lolDixieland stadium
FANTASTIC!!!!!I'd call it the Boo Camp, and then all the hipsters would roll their eyes and inform me that it's actually Camp Boo.
Ooh, that's a burn! lolThe Heritage stadium would be a real middle finger moment
Yep, the Saint Virgil Memorial Garden. Everton players can trample on him every other week for the next 150 years to truly honourhim. Its what he would've wanted.Think it's only fair we name it after VVD after he sadly passed away during a challenge against us
Interesting that. What I read in the mainstream media (rs dominated of course) was all about slavery. I prefer your version!From what little research I have done (Wiki) Bramley-Moore is not connected to the slave trade, apparently he made his money in the sugar trade in the period after the abolition of the slave trade.
