room0035 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 With all the doom and gloom about the place why have we as a football club never named our stadium. I wonder if anyone know most club always name the stands after their great players of old. Like the Chrissy Waddle stand, or John Fatham stand or Kevin Pressman Pie shop Found this article from last year on Owlstalk about our greatest 50 players who now not be a good time to cheer up the fans by renaming the current, South Stand, North Stand, Kop and Leppings Lane end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Snooty Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 To be honest I don't mind if they want to call it something else. A life-times repetition will be hard to knock out of me. I'll still call it Hillsborough whatever signs they put up. It'll always be KOP, South, North and Lepp too. Unless I've had too many Haribo. Then I start calling the North The Cantilever. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I start calling the North The Cantilever. We all said the same abut the West Riding. How many now say they are from the West Riding and not South Yorkshire. It's a long time since I heard it used. And we are talking about a lot more people than support Wednesday. I would be surprised if the name Hillsborough lasts 5 years after a name change. FFS.
