Title: The YOU can rename the Stratton Bank for 2 seasons competition thread
Post by: Batch on Saturday, February 28, 2009, 09:33:46
Just announced on Soccer AM. Apparently you can buy a ticket (1969 available) for £10 and the winner will be able to rename the stratton bank for 2 seasons.

Winner announced on soccer AM 2nd May.

Not sure how I feel about this.

edit: Corrected ticket price.

What do the proceeds go to?

Can't see 1969 people stumping up £25 for that.

Maybe I missheard the price, I'm sure an official announcement will be made  soon enough with all the details.

Swindon Town FC is inviting fans to participate in a special one off lottery called Stand Buy Me.

Stand Buy Me, which is scheduled to launch on Monday 2nd March, will allow the winner to personally name The County Ground's Stratton Bank for the next two seasons.

Only 1,969 lottery tickets, at £10 per ticket, will go on sale and the draw will take place live on Soccer AM on Saturday 2nd May 2009.

In addition to the main prize, there will be a range of other non cash prizes to the four runners up, including 2009/10 Season Tickets and Matchday Hospitality.

This is a unique opportunity for fans to participate in a fun lottery concept and for the winner to become a visible part of the club's infrastructure between now and the end of the 2010/11 season.

For more details on how to purchase one of the lottery tickets visit the official Swindon Town FC club shop, from Monday.

£10 quid a ticket then.

Come on TEF, let's hear the suggestions.

It's up on the club site now

http://www.swindontownfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10341~1573168,00.html

As it says in the small print "should you be drawn as the winner of the first prize you will enter into consultation with the club to discuss the appropriate naming of the stratton bank until 2011.........

So i think the answer to your question is no, you can't call it anything, the club will have a say in it.

Blatantly it not literally anything. It can't be offensive and probably can't be really stupid sounding.

You could probably name it after yourself or choose to honour a favourite town player from the past.

Naming it after this forum would cause some confusion!

Should you be drawn as the winner of the first prize, you will enter into consultation with the club to discuss the appropriate naming of the Stratton Bank until 2011. The name is to be agreed by both the winner and Swindon Town Football Club. Hospitality packages are subject to availability.

So in theory you don't actually get to choose the name...

It's such a shit bank. I wouldn't want any former Town greats having that pile of wank named after them, it would be embarrassing.

I nominate The Jim Smith Bank, after the man who gave me one of my happiest moments in football.

How much do you think we could get away with in the naming? Say i won the club are obviously not going to let me call it the "I want to fuck 16 year old girls " stand, so where do you reckon the limit will be?  Could you get away with "we hate oxford" bank? what do you think?


Title: Re: The YOU can rename the Stratton Bank for 2 seasons competition thread
Post by: janaage on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 11:31:52
We hate Oxford bank(ers) would be more appropriate.

I don't think they'd let you get away with much.  Name it after yourself, a family member, your business, a famous town event, maybe where you live.  Anything other than that I think they'd look very closely at it.

Hi Amanda,



Hope you are well.

I am enquiring about the naming of the Stratton Bank offer you have going at the moment. I wanted to know if it was worth my while entering said competition as I am not quite sure if the club would accept the following suggestions..



"we hate Oxford" Bank

"You will never make it to the station" Bank

"Wank" Bank



Obviously in these troubled times i would not want to waste £30 of my money and your valuable time.

yours

mex.

Calling it the "I want to fuck 16 year old girls" stand is the limit. Calling it the "I want to fuck 15 year old girls" stand is slightly under the limit.  :soapy tit wank:

No that'd definitely be seen as going against being a family club and even as encouraging football violence.
