I would quit happily see the ground re named the berylson stadium, i've never used the word new den as in my eyes it doesn't resemble the old ground any shape or form....
Got to keep Dockers, prefer The Berylson DenRename the Dockers the Berylson stand.
I’m for naming a stand (If we ever move he comes with us) and renaming a road or having a statue but Lions belong in “The Den”.
I think your comment is a bit harsh mate. It's an emotional time and people are still processing what has happened. I reckon the idea would have crossed many peoples mind. It's a nice reasonable thought and no doubt comforting for some.So far we've had the ground, a stand, the new training ground, roads, the youth centre, sponsorship and his name on the back of the shirt Instead of the players. Next we will be renaming the club and only signing players with the Initials J.B.

For what It's worth I think there are some good Ideas there (apart from the ground and his name on the back of the shirt) to honor his legacy, but It needs to be done In a proper, dignified Millwall way that honors him for posterity but also doesn't make him bigger than the club Itself or Indeed weekens the tribute due to his name being everywhere.
No doubt. I don't do social media other than here and Hof so thankfully i haven't seen much other than the two sites i mentioned. I can imagine facebook wil have allsorts of outlandish stuff.Some of the ideas I’ve seen on social media are a little bit OTT
We have an end with no name. You get to see this every home game, the training ground you dont. This could be done & be ready for our first home game.
No problem with the end & training ground being named. Just not keen on the stadium name changing. At the end of the day its "the lions den".We certainly do have an 'end' at the ground with no name, and yes, it's a good idea to name it after JB. But what's the problem with naming the new training facilities after him as well? After all, the training ground is a big part of his work to bring Millwall into the 21st century and attract staff, players and sponsors to the club.
Memorial seems nessecaryI know its not very 'Wall, but perhaps a statue of the man? A memorial maybe? Something at least.
