I would think that's a dead cert.   I'll get my coat !! An HMV gift voucher. About as much use as a Scunthorpe season ticket.

Unofficially I think we should just call it The Park. ‘That was what I loved about football. It was expressive and creative, like art. By the time I was nine, I could dribble without having to look at the ball. My dad taught me that.’ Pat Nevin Logged 0 1 Reply: 61 - 97 Posh Harry September 8, 2016, 12:27pm Table Wine Drinker Posts: 932 Posts Per Day: 0.75 Reputation: 75.79% Rep Score: +11 / -4 Approval: +1,815 I would also endorse the thought of stands named after Alan Buckley, and either Kevin Moore or the Moore Family stand. I am surprised no one has mentioned it (although I haven't seen other threads yet) but I also think a case should be made for the John McDermott Stand. Record appearances, one club and a true GTFC legend imo.

As far as I'm concerned, whoever offers Grimsby Town the most money over whatever period should aquire the naming rights, the more money the club receives the better.

Very few stadiums are actually referred to by the sponsor's name (Emirates being an example, although even that has the name Ashburton Grove). New York Stadium in Rotherham has been mentioned a lot as an inspiration, yet no one called it the ASSEAN New York Stadium! I'd be happy to play in the Young's New Pelham Park or whatever name we went for, knowing that we don't actually have to use the full name.

I know there is Blundell Ave, but I guess they are named after someone of that name. Who was he/she?
