Segun Oluwaniyi Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 This shouldn't be a problem. The principle of the action is rubbish, but that's football these days. It will always be St. James Park. Just because Tesco or some other disgusting company owns the naming rights doesn't change that. The only way Newcastle United's stadium will ever be known as anything other than St. James Park is if we move to a new one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 The local media had better fucking pick up on the general strength of feeling on this issue. Not that he gives a shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 To me it feels like the culture and personality is being drained out of the club now. As if taking the dignity and Premier League status wasnt enough. Been thinking that for a while. But I've been also thinking that was the lowest it got, I now think this is the lowest it gets... Rock bottom feels like it arrived several months ago but Ashley seems to find us a new level at every soul destroying decision he makes. Every decision that he makes lends credence to the arguement that this for him is personal and it's about breaking the back of the club and the fans. Reason? Revenge for turning on him over the Keegan business. Christ knows where we will be when this sad mess ends. I suspect that all that will be left of NUFC is the name itself - as said above, he'll strip it of everything else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest paddy Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 We would be the first club in the top two divisions to change from a "proper" name to a branded name.

I thought for sure, it would be referred to as Ashburton Grove by Arsenal fans at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thespence Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Really, it's always going to be St James whatever it gets branded as. The media & all NUFC documents will refer to it by what ever company has it name above the door. I say I am going to the Metro Arena not the Newcastle Arena or the Telewest Arena. If I sit in the 1892 I dont say I sit in the Milburn stand. OF course most of us will always refer to it as St James Park. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Worst timing EVER! Its been brought up before, renaming the stadium isnt the worst thing in the world if we get a large wedge of cash in return. Most people will always call it SJP regardless. No suprise the fat cunt picks the most ignorant time to announce it though, the guy is clueless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
