If we don't all go to www.lda.gov.uk and vote on a
name for Wembley's new pedestrian bridge, the
Scots (Jim Baxter), Irish (Roy Keane) and Welsh
(Scott Gibbs) are going to get the new landmark
named after their heroes... can you imagine walking
to Wembley on the Roy Keane bridge... Bobby Moore
surely?

I have voted (for Ramsay).

Remember - if you don't vote you can't complain!

There's already a Bobby Moore Bridge at the other end of Olympic Way (near Wembley Park Station).

I've suggested the White Horse Bridge after the policemans horse at the 1923 Cup Final which became an icon of Wembley.

Either that or the "Did it really cross the line?" bridge.

How about the Twin Towers bridge?  Everyone had a view as to whether they should stay or go & whilst a bridge could never replace the historical importance, this would be a nice namesake in the exciting new development.

thats a great idea. They could rebuild the twin towers, one on Platform 1 of the station, the other on Platform 2, with the bridge linking them
They say Kesey's dead; But never trust a prankster;even underground.
