Should we change the stand names at St. Marys

I thought we'd have a le tiss stand and a ted bates stand, but for some reason we didn't. Seems strange to do it now, even though it's deserved and the fans would like it.

 

Kingsland and Itchen won't be missed as names will they.

 

There the more popolar stand i think it should be them. Keep the Northam and Chapel.

No.

The stands are named logicaly.

Chapel end facing the Chapel area of the City, the Northam facing the Northam district etc etc. It makes sense.

Naming everything that moves after old players is naff.

 

Yeah agree with this. We have hospitality suites named after players which is good, and enough. I think we should just leave it as it is.

I posted some time ago we could name the exit gates after the 76 side that won the cup.

 

A better idea me thinks.

 

What would Kelvin Davis think if the stands was named after ex players and that he stayed on with us till he was 40 before becomming our manager for the next 20 years.

 

Any room for him?

 

IMHO we will have another legend at our club within the next decade so lets honour them another way?

My suggestion

 

Kingsland = Matt Le Tissier

Chapel = Bobby Stokes

Itchen = Ted Bates

Northam = Rupert LoweI'd **** myself laughing.....

 

I think that naming a stand after him is going too far !

Perhaps one of the toilets could be named 'The Rupert Lowe Urinal' ?

They could paint little pictures of his face where people point their willies and they could try to hit it every time ! I feel sure that this would become a popular matchday feature with the Northam faithful ????

What about Terry Paine 811 appearances, Mick Channon 602 appearances Nick Holmes 535 appearences or Ron Davies 153 goals in 277 appearances etc. etc. etc.

 

Leave the stands as they are. Avoids leaving anyone out.

 

Agreed. The executive suites are named after the legends and the stands are sensibly named already. The only valid reason I can see for renaming the stands is if we were to sell the naming rights for commercial reasons.
