It's like the Castore deal. Biggest in clubs history but folk moan because of the badge transfer coming off ! Can't win !!
What I'm fuming most about is finding out 'dick' now gets through the swear filter. Been tip toeing round that one for 'kin ages!
YANKS OUT!
YANKS OUT!

Melt.
I didn't want Toyota anyway
Utterly confused how this firm got the rights. I'd assume Chang is a bigger business

I'm good with it. I quite like the parochialism of the name. I really like the fact that we've done a deal with a Liverpool based company. I'm relieved that we've not sold our soul to a multinational corporation.
Hill Dickinson aren't some average law firm. They're a huge company. They say on their website "Our clients include multinational companies, major corporations, the NHS, UK plcs, UK and foreign banks, financial institutions, public sector bodies, investors, educational establishments, institutions, private individuals and professional bodies." OK I grant you, they represent some ghastly clients, that's how they make their money.
As for the terms of the deal, I've got no worries. We won't have given them the contract out of sentiment, we'll have done it because it makes commercial sense. And part of what makes it a good deal is that it's a commercial relationship that we can see remaining in place for many years to come.

I guess it's a bit crap, but not like any of us will call it that. It's always going to be 'Bramley Moore' to me. That's the history of the place, it's where it is and that's always what it is. Probably the most anoying thing will be folk like Jamie Caragher on sky sports calling it Hill Dickinson Stadium...him knowing it winds us up a little bit. But If it's what is required to compete so be it, it's just a name and it won't be the one I ever use.

At the end of the day, you can make fun of any teams ground with a bit of word play. Analfield being one. What was stopping other teams calling Bramley Moore Dock- Bramley Moore C*@k. Lets just call this the HD stadium and get on with it
The Home stand is to be called " where there's blame there's a claim " Stand
Doesn't matter who it is, all that matters is the cash.
Was always going to be alien after Goodison.
We should call it “The Dixie “ for short.

Hill Dicks' turnover is £145m. A huge company they ain't. They're not even a huge law firm - just in the top 50 on turnover.
Doesn't mean that they ain't paying a princely sum for naming rights, but it's a weird flex.
It’s an abysmal name

Would have preferred the Dickens Cider Stadium.
