When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

The one that surprises me there is the high level of support for a ‘stadium naming sponsor’.
I was thinking only recently that we still have a traditional, geographical, historically significant name and how that contributes to our identity. I don’t know what proportion of clubs in the EFL still retain such a stadium name, but I would personally hate it if we were saddled with a commercially naff name ‘the Poundland stadium’ or the ‘DG motors arena’ or some such.

Here in York, City fans still bow their heads in shame at any mention of 'Kit-Kat Crescent'.

I think they worded it such a way as it would be called something like Blundell Park sponsored by Dong Energy or the like.

I'm surprised there were 1600 responses given how long it was. I personally didn't do it due to the length.

BP will always be BP to us so if we can get some revenue and it isn't a laughing stock sponsor like Poundland or Home Bargains, why not? Man Utd have struggled to get a sponsor for Old Trafford on the basis that it will still be Old Trafford to everyone.

Bow their heads?

I’d be giving Kit-Kat Crescent two fingers personally.

It was because if you covered her back in foil and rubbed on it her name would appear.
