Brunels SS Great Eastern Mast pole.

Fair enough, but there needs to be something commemorating Goodison besides a measly plaque

There's no word on the holy trinity statue?

Holy Trinity, Dixie, and the Goodison gates are staying where they are

Was confirmed about 5 years ago now

SS Great Eastern was an iron sailing steam ship designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, and she was by far the largest ship ever built at the time of her 1858 launch. She finished her life as a floating music hall and advertising hoarding (for the famous department store Lewis's) in Liverpool...

Should be returned to its rightful owner Everton Football Club.

I'd like to see this returned and a spot found for it at BM.

No ta.

Imagine how many of that lot have pissed against that in the last 132 years.

Doesn't sit right him me.

That's part of our heritage and they're passing it off as their own.

Am sorry if it seems trivial.

It's a chunk of scrap metal from what was ultimately a complete financial disaster of a ship seemingly designed and built just in time to be rendered obsolete repurposed to elevate some cloth.

If an organisation / club / business moves out of a site they're renting and opt to leave a metal pole behind it's not something you should worry about claiming back over 100 years later.

Too heavy - my older brother told me last night ?

He’s not heavy, he’s your brother.

It's the stadium's history, not Everton's history.

It's a piece of wood.

Personally, I like that.

We can have some new statues at BMD - Rafael Benitez, Moise Kean, too many recent legends to pick from.

We need a rudder more than a Mast for the SS Everton!!!!

Erect the mast somewhere in the new ground to obscure some views

A real tribute to Goodison
