#bramley-moore dock

[protect-daniel-james]

Would love to hear your thoughts about Bramley-Moore Dock!

Oh, what an ask! Where do I even begin?

(I dedicated a big part of my master's thesis to it, and I still know shit about it, lmao). I was in Liverpool three times - in October 2022, April 2023, and finally in September 2024, and every time I went to see it (the first two trips were "part of my research", so I say).

Disclaimer at first: I love Liverpool. I love the city, I love the vibe, I love the accent, I love the humor - I know it's the stereotype but I genuinely think there is some truth in it, having a laugh because what else can you do. "Supposedly universal Scouse qualities as resilience, cheery buoyancy in the face of adversity, and the ubiquitous good sense of humour" ; "micro-culture of truculent defiance, collective solidarity and fatalist humour” - I love all of it. Or maybe I'm just in awe of port cities (coming from a landlocked country) and I love people calling you "luv". So, I will never be fully objective when it comes to this.

Anyway! Back to Bramley-Moore Dock! I, in general, love old stadiums, stadiums that have been built in ancient times, because of the things I write about in the enfermo Unai stories - the history, the heritage, the place the old stadium has in the folklore, and the role it plays in the memories of the supporters. I highly recommend the two books - or, rather, one book and one thesis - that changed my life and made me a stadium fucker (not literally), and that I use a lot for stuff in building Unai's World of Wonder & Fútbol:

Frank, S., Steets, S. (eds.) (2010). Stadium Worlds: Football, Space, and the Built Environment. Routledge.

Thomas, F. E. (2018). The visual culture of football – heritage and nostalgia in ground moves. [University of Central Lancashire, Preston, United Kingdom].

I could copy and paste all the literature I gathered for my research lmao. But these two volumes I really remember fondly and come back to for a quick skim when writing about Unai.

Well, during my visits to Liverpool, I saw the stadium "coming to life". And, I will be honest, at first, I hated the idea of a club moving to a new place. Obviously, as a latent West Ham fan, I have had my share of (online) experience of fans moaning about "the soulless bowl" of London Stadium, and the neverending longing for the Boleyn Ground spirit and atmosphere. BUT - I think the difference in Liverpool is the placement of the new stadium.

(left: April 2023, right: September 2024)

I think the dock was/is a genius idea, especially once the waterfront is fully regenerated and the actual "promenade" reaches all the way from the city center to the stadium. Honestly, as things stand now, the stadium is in a very "wasteland-like" area, and I feel like the current bus routes only rarely pass anywhere near it? (I walked there every time from the city center and back lmao). There's basically nothing to see around as you walk down Regent Road. I'm curious to see how it will look at the beginning of the new season - and a few years from now on. (In a few years’ time, hopefully, it will be possible to evaluate whether 'marching down the Regent Road' will retain some of the qualities and values associated with the practice of 'marching down the Goodison Road'.)

Tl;dr I started off as a new stadium hater. But when the move is inevitable - there should be a place of significance in the city used for the new stadium. I would hate it - and I understand why there was an uproar about those plans - if Everton had moved to Kirkby when they had the chance. Like, fuck no. The club is woven in the fabric of the city, and it should be proudly kept in it. The Fans' Led Review called for football clubs to be classed (or at least considered) as heritage, and many of them have long been treated as tourist attractions in their cities - so their placement in the city should be in line with that.

Also, since I fell in love with Liverpool, I genuinely think the Albert Docks look cool and offer so much and is in general such a great blueprint for the use of the other docks of Liverpool. So if Bramley-Moore Dock can be anything like that, I will be happy.

And it seems like the reaction of the actual Everton fans - whose opinion matters much more than mine over here - has been positive this week (I get it that with Moyes at the wheel now, everything is sunshine and flowers but I think the response has been very positive because of the location for a long time). From what I've seen, it looks really cool. I'll definitely check it out when I'm in Liverpool.

I'll end this lovely stadium fuckery with a quote from the podcast Royal Blue:

“You couldn’t have dreamt it better. If I was to interview 100 000 Everton fans across the world where would they love their brand new stadium, I guess 99 % of them would say Liverpool city centre, on the docks, on the waterfront, shining like a beacon to the rest of the world. You can’t ask for more than that. And I think that’s what they’ve got, that’s what they deserve. They’ve been patient for twenty odd years with no trophies, watching their neighbors with everything in sight – this is their reward for patience and support, and I think they deserve it.”

Everton Football Club

Everton Football Club adalah salah satu klub sepak bola tertua dan paling bersejarah di Inggris. Klub ini berbasis di Liverpool, Inggris, dan saat ini bermain di Premier League. Everton memiliki julukan "The Toffees" dan memiliki rivalitas yang kuat dengan Liverpool FC, yang dikenal sebagai Merseyside Derby.

Awal Berdiri Everton

1878: Klub didirikan dengan nama St. Domingo FC untuk anggota gereja St. Domingo Methodist di Liverpool.

1879: Klub berganti nama menjadi Everton FC agar lebih terbuka bagi masyarakat luas.

1888: Everton menjadi salah satu pendiri Football League.

1891: Everton memenangkan gelar Liga Inggris pertamanya.

1892: Perselisihan dengan pemilik stadion Anfield membuat Everton pindah ke Goodison Park, sementara klub baru yang kini dikenal sebagai Liverpool FC lahir di Anfield.

1906 dan 1907: Everton mencapai final Piala FA, memenangkan gelar pada 1906.

1928: Dixie Dean mencetak 60 gol dalam satu musim, rekor yang belum terpecahkan hingga kini

Masa Keemasan

1960-an: Everton menikmati kesuksesan di bawah manajer Harry Catterick, memenangkan Liga Inggris 1962-63 dan Piala FA 1966.

1970: Everton memenangkan gelar Liga Inggris ketujuh.

1980-an: Di bawah Howard Kendall, Everton mengalami era keemasan:

1984: Memenangkan Piala FA.

1985 & 1987: Memenangkan Liga Inggris.

1985: Juara Piala Winners UEFA setelah mengalahkan Rapid Wien.

Namun, tragedi terjadi ketika UEFA melarang klub Inggris dari kompetisi Eropa setelah Tragedi Heysel 1985, sehingga Everton kehilangan kesempatan bersaing di Liga Champions.

Perjalanan Premier League

1995: Everton memenangkan Piala FA terakhirnya setelah mengalahkan Manchester United.

2000-an: Di bawah manajer David Moyes (2002–2013), Everton kembali menjadi tim yang kompetitif, sering finis di papan atas Premier League dan lolos ke Liga Champions 2005.

2013–Sekarang: Setelah kepergian Moyes, Everton mengalami periode naik turun di Premier League dengan pergantian beberapa pelatih, seperti Roberto Martínez, Ronald Koeman, Carlo Ancelotti, hingga Sean Dyche saat ini.

Everton Fun Fact

Rekor Penampilan Terbanyak: Neville Southall (751 pertandingan).

Pencetak Gol Terbanyak: Dixie Dean (383 gol).

Julukan Klub: The Toffees.

Stadion: Goodison Park (akan pindah ke Bramley-Moore Dock Stadium dalam waktu dekat).

Rival Abadi: Liverpool FC (Merseyside Derby).

Everton's new stadium welcomes 10,000 fans for test event

Everton’s new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock welcomed 10,000 fans for a test event featuring an under-18 friendly match against Wigan Athletic. The Premier League club is preparing to say goodbye to Goodison Park at the end of this season. “Whoever’s designed it has done a fantastic job because the stands are on top of you,” Everton under-18 coach Keith Southern told Everton TV. “When this is…

[ad_1] Everton fans soak in the atmosphere at the last Merseyside derby to be held at Goodison Park (Image: @Everton) The cheapest ticket for last weekend’s Super Bowl in New Orleans was priced at around $3,000 (Rupees 2,60,000). On average, fans of the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs paid over $8,000 to gain entrance. For the money paid for those cheapest tickets, a family of four could have bought season tickets to watch Borussia Dortmund, UEFA Champions League winners in 1997, at one of the most iconic stadiums in Europe. That season ticket, in the most expensive category, would allow them to watch over 20 matches this season. In a nutshell, this explains why so many football fans in Europe are up in arms about clubs trying to go the American way, effectively pricing out working-class fans who are the bedrock of the sport. Over the past two decades, thousands of fans, especially in the UK, have given up their season tickets and even stopped going to matches altogether because they simply cannot afford the costs involved. And with the legion of foreign owners treating their clubs purely as an investment, that situation is only going to get worse. Why do we mention this? On Wednesday night, Everton and Liverpool contested the 120th Merseyside derby to be played at Goodison Park. Before the start of next season, Everton will move to a state-of-the-art new stadium at the Bramley-Moore Dock, leaving behind their home of 133 years. Fortunately for the fans who turned up to watch, nearly 40,000 of them, they were treated to an occasion that they will never forget – a tinderbox atmosphere, a last-second goal that salvaged a draw for the home side, and the sort of blood and thunder that was always associated with English football. Once, these neighbours who have contested more derbies than the cross-town rivals in Milan, Manchester and Madrid were separated only by the width of Stanley Park. About two decades ago, Liverpool seriously contemplated leaving Anfield, only for the intensity of the fan protests to convince them to redevelop the ground instead. The capacity is now over 60,000. Everton didn’t find that a feasible option and are therefore leaving Goodison behind. The new venue will increase capacity by 13,000 seats, but is that really such a critical number? The reality is that the capacity doesn’t matter. What does is the number of hospitality boxes that the club can build and sell to sponsors and corporate clients. The blueprint in this case seems to be Tottenham Hotspur, who have a stadium that is the envy of most in Europe. The same Tottenham have won one trophy this century, but are among the ten richest football clubs in the world.  Their fans, unlike Everton’s, don’t live in one of the most economically disadvantaged areas in the UK. Eventually, if Everton – now owned by the Friedkin Group, so reviled in Rome after the dismissal of Daniele De Rossi, the local hero, as coach this season – manage to achieve some success, you can rest assured they will bring in a bigger name than David Moyes as coach. That will also see a stream of day-trippers come from across the world to watch matches, often the same people who were once Manchester United, Chelsea or Manchester City ‘fans’. For them, there will be no emotional connect with the venue or the team. Hundreds of those on the terraces who celebrated James Tarkowski’s equaliser with clenched fists and roars had great-grandparents who watched Dixie Dean, grandparents who were enthralled by the team of Colin Harvey and Alan Ball, and parents who celebrated the amazing sides of the mid-1980s. It was that connection, which money can never buy, that gave rise to such a febrile atmosphere. As Alan Edge, a Liverpool fan, wrote in his book published in the late 1990s, it is the ‘faith of our fathers’. The deliberate attempts to price out such fans and bring in those that only want to schmooze and take selfies will be the death of sport, and its working-class soul. The post
