Nice touch.
I've no problem with it being a year but something more permanent after would be nice. Even if it's naming a hospitality suite or something. Anyone seen any plans for what they are doing in the leg ends lounge? |

On the flip side I kinda get if the stadium is new and your the first name there. Like I still think of Bolton’s stadium as the Reebok because that’s what it was called when it was opened. I guess similar if Arsenal suddenly changed their sponsors most would still call it the Emirates…. I still sometimes refer to our south stand as "The Intel Stand" when I'm doing too many things at once. I wonder if they're planning to name part of the redeveloped ground after Nigel Eady, and that this is a temporary measure until the development happens. |

I’ve got loads.
I’ve been on not much more than bed rest for 3 weeks. I’m bored. Thanks for asking. |

It’s definitely the right thing to do - naming the whole ground after him and I said as much when it was purchased. As the three main stands are already named there was talk (just speculation on here) that we could name the Stratton Bank after him but that didn’t seem a big enough tribute.
Would be intrigued to know how much income having the CG sponsored nets us. Like for me, I get it brings in money for us and is an easy win because let’s be honest - apart from on social media graphics no one is referring to it as anything else other than the County Ground. Particularly as ours is an old stadium. The same way I don’t think I’ve ever called Newcastle’s stadium anything other than St. James Park. On the flip side I kinda get if the stadium is new and your the first name there. Like I still think of Bolton’s stadium as the Reebok because that’s what it was called when it was opened. I guess similar if Arsenal suddenly changed their sponsors most would still call it the Emirates…. Gun to my head - I could not tell you any of our stadium sponsors who’ve had their names in front of the county ground. |
