Naming of individual stands

[ditchy]

Not sure if it has been mentioned on here before and apologies if it has , but with our new found status in the PL and the club looking to maximise commercial deals , how long will it bear before we start naming individual stands ?

Tony Bloom doesn't like naming stands.He allowed the restaurant to be named after his granddad, but that's as far as it goes.

 

[Megazone]

I've always felt Adam Virgo deserves a stand named after him, especially when you consider all those goals he so famously scored at Withdean.

 

[Napper]

wouldn't be in the slightest bit bothered if it was sponsored if it brings in more money.

Will for me forever be the east , west , north and south but if Thomas Cook (or whoever) want to pay us £5m to call it something then no big deal to me

 

[Dick Head]

I think we should have a Dick Head Stand.

 

[Titanic]

Can we name the North Stand after that wizard bloke?

not forgetting that goal at Leicester. a genuis suggestion.

 

[Hamilton]

One should be called The Hamilton Stand.

I seem to recall that names were announced during our first season there, then quickly redacted when AMEX pointed out they had naming rights for the entire stadium and individual deals for stands was not permitted under that agreement.

I may have dreamt it, though.

I think we should have a Dick Head Stand.

We've already got one

If Amex won't let us name stands, how about sponsoring individual seats then? £150 to have a seat named after you (or your other half, your mum, your dog or whatever) for a season. Could be a nice little earner.......................

If we were to ever go down the route of naming stands I'd hope we wouldn't go the corporate route and would instead name them after people associated with the club.

 

[Petee]

Name the West Stand after Kemy Agustien as he liked 3 tier (cakes).
Name the South Stand after Elvis Manu as he was always AWAY offside
Name the East Stand after Sam Baldock as he is always off after 75 mins
Name the North Stand after Steve Sidwell. No reason required.

 

[Surf's Up]

I think a stand should be named after the legendary Mike Hunt.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Can we name the North Stand after that wizard bloke?

Merlin ? Gandalf ?

Who is going to pay big bucks to do that? Never going to happen imio

 

[Stat Brother]

The bike shed could be called:-

'Get a car - although that will mean longer to get to and from the stadium, causing me more grief' Stand.

 

[Glawstergull]

I would name the popular end after that great Welsh rugby player G.North and the big one after the visionary paving slab recycler F.WEST.

 

[GT49er]

The bike shed could be called......................

....the 'In-Front of the Unofficial Smoking Area if you don't want to get Caught' Stand?

 

[Wozza]

West Ham have Bobby Moore and Trevor Brooking 'Stands' at the London Stadium, which are actually ends. Tsk.
