      Stand Names
      Oct 20, 2007 11:22:15 am
      We've had a lot of debate about the name of our new stadium, but what do you think the new stands should be called?

      Obviously one of them is still gonna be called The Kop, but that still leaves three to be named. Personally I'd go for The Shankly Stand, Paisley Stand & Hillsborough Memorial Stand.

      I like your thinking - just concerned about which one the away fans would go in.

      The Kop is a given.

      I can't add anymore to the names and themes EddieC has drummed up - just looking forward to the signs directing people to the Goodison Multistorey Car Park.

       I also think Shankly stand and Paisley stand are great names for the new stadium, maybe the away fans end could be a sponsors name, say like the Liverpool Echo stand, Easyjet stand or Sony stand. Change it every season or 2, to the highest bidder. Whoever that is gets the naming rites for 1 or 2 seasons, nice little money maker for us.

      Maybe two? It's funny watching them fight when they're getting beat!

      Good topic! The Shankly, Paisley and Hillsborough stands would be brilliant!

      Not so keen on the name 'Hillsborough Stand'. That would bring too many bad memories back.

      Maybe the Paisley, Shankly and Justice Stand.

      Good point about the Hillsborough Stand! Paisley and Shankly are certs though, surely?  :)

      It's too hard this thread. We've got so much to offer!! The Kop goes without saying. As does the Justice stand. As does the Paisley stand. As does the Shankly stand. Then we have to think of something new and original for our new stadium don't we?  ;)

      the only thing about calling stands the Paisley or Shankly stand is what happens when Dalglish passes on or tommy Smith or Roger Hunt. We are blessed that for more then 50 years we,ve produced legends of the game, Billy Liddel for example, who could or in time should have stands named after them also.

      The kop is a given after that maybe have a stand called the memorial stand which could house the memorial to Hillsborough and Heysel

      See your point Brian.

      Maybe we should reserve the blocks for the players. :-\

      eg; Dalglish block 202 etc

      I think we definitely have to have a Shankly and a Paisley Stand, and something to do with Hillsborough and of course the kop.

      The " are ay" stand sounds about right :D

      You cant have away fans sitting on the Kop or the Shankly stand or the Paisley stand. I'm not sure about the Hillsborough stand too many bad memories!!!!! I was thinking of bringing 96 seats from Anfield putting them in and never letting anyone sit there!!!!!

      There will be a stand for the away fans that doesn't offend them!!!!!

      How about

      "sixteen years to build this kop stand"
      "a bit longer to build than the kop stand"
      "mind the wet paint stand"
      "still under construction stand"

      Though the one in bold could also probably be named the "Bicentenary Stand"...  ::)

      Whatever happens I just hope they don't call St Modwen in!
