    With news yesterday that Leicester had sold the naming rights off their ground to their main sponsor and also todays news that Manchester City have followed suit and will now play at the Etihad Stadium is it now a forgone conclusion that our stadium will soon have a commercial name attached with it. Man City have mentioned the new financial regulations as part of the reasoning. I have no problem with it as long as the name isn't naff and stadium of light remains, e.g The Sony Ericsson Stadium of light.

    Its going to come as its a new money stream for clubs.Everyone will be doing it sooner rather than later. Just so long as its not some cheap and nasty retail name like a sports outlet or something? Lol

    What we dont need is a company with the letter R at the beginning? Lol


    How about this though:

    The Nissan SOL?

    I'm sure there's a 'Pizza Hut Park' in the US....oh dear

    The Nissan Stadium of Light is one of the better names we could get. But tbh, anything is better than sportsdirect.com@stjamespark!!

    Absolutely not, unless it was a 100 mil deal. It's simply embarrasing.
