GRIMSBY EVENING TELEGRAPH  1/6/2066---"It has been proposed by the controlling group " The Suffragettes " at last nights council meeting that Daubney Street be further demolished to create additional car parking facilities for TOWNS home matches now that they are in the Premiership. It is also intended to increase the height of the Main stand to 7 storeys to meet the 20000 seats required. Laughter erupted in the public gallery when Councillor Fenty suggested that a new stadium would soon be required and he put forward that the Tesco Store on Peaks Parkway be demolished and the sight used for a new 2 sided community centre.

how about sharing the sponsorship names between 2 big firms and including the name of a Town legend ; something snappy like the
'Associated British Ports Norbert Dentressangle Jean-Louis Akpa Akpro Community Sporting Fentydome Arena' ?

Do you not read other posts ?  Are you not aware of the depth of feeling ?  Yet you still take the p1ss.


Nobody wants it called stadium or arena.  Change the last bit to Park and you might be in with a shout 😉


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Quoted from WetFlannel
I have no issue giving away naming rights as long as there is a normal name to go alongside it. 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*  agree with you  got nice ring to  it

Naming rights is a given in this day and age and we should not be too bothered about it as long as it's a well recognised National Company, personally I would like to avoid any pay day loan set up.s etc...

The 4 stands (when they are all built) The new pontoon, The Alan Buckley Stand, the other 2 I would not have a clue to be honest......... If Fenty does pull this off then he should get his name up somewhere as once you step back and take all the emotion out of it a new ground with no massive benefactor after the last 10 years or so would actually be quite an achievement.          

I would use the bars, suites lounges etc.. to recognise the likes of The Moore Family, Macca, Matt Tees etc... etc...  Also the people who run the GTFC disabled supporters club should be recognised for what they do/have done each week for years.

In 1899 a guy called Peter Blundell bought the land and built the stadium where we are now, hence Blundell Park
