You need to go from more syllables to less for it to sound right.
Dickinson Hill Stadium sounds much better.
It’s just too wordy. I’m sure a linguist could explain it all.
I think it’ll become HD but it could do with having a single name.
Even though it’s Goodison Park we still know it as Goodison.
Something about English sports grounds should be a single word.
A locality:
Highbury
Twickenham
Wembley
Edgbaston
Headingly
Goodison Park, Loftus Road, Craven Cottage are all a bit twee aren’t they? Bramley Moore Dock is wordy AND twee.
I saw the Hill Dickenson CEO talk about how this ties in with their major new rebranding. I wonder if they’d consider a subtle name change to help us out? Previous Message
Occurred to me this morning how its such a bland name, that it could almost be the street or the name of the dock. ie it perhaps goes in our favour.
I mean, Bramley Moore Stadium, is that better than Hill Dickinson??? Both are just surnames lashed together.
A twitst in history and it could easily have been the Hill Dickinson Dock, and we were now being sponsored by Bramley Moore Law Firm.. would that be better ?
Would sound a bit better if it was Dickinson Hill - that would sound like a place name (cough, like Goodison Park..), but in the cold light of day maybe the blandness is actually ok.
I mean, The Macdonalds Stadium, would be a bit meh, wouldnt it.
