Goodbye Goodison?
As Everton fans everywhere were eagerly awaiting an announcement about their proposed new Bramley-Moore Dock Stadium, social media came into its own with a few suggestions as to what the new ground should be called.
The Bramley-Moore dock is Everton FC’s preferred site for a new stadium to replace Goodison Park, which is seen as too small and lacking in modern facilities. The club are believed to be in advanced talks with Peel, who own the northern docklands and are developing it under the £5.5bn Liverpool Waters scheme.
And Twitter being Twitter, Everton fans and rival supporters alike had a go at providing the Toffees’ proposed new home with a fitting name. Something classy, something apt – something suitably scouse. So without further ado, here are some of the best efforts…
Scallianz Arena.
Ketihad.
Blou Camp n Furnace.
Estadio San Yer Mames.— Cabernet Voltaire (@treacadelic) March 22, 2017
New ground has to be the Ketihad or the Scallianz. Nothing else will do

"Welcome to the Scallianz Arena in Liverpool's docklands. Everton will be attacking the Pie Crust Snorting Wizard end in the 1st half."

Everton might as well just call their stadium the Anderson Arena, apparently he's giving it to them anyway.
