Ukyestony's post count will decrease massively now.

I will love the Stanley Matthews Stadium.

I'm not believing this about the corner until Ukyestony confirms it.

Great news re the corners but it will always be the Brit..... much as St James park will never be Sportdirect....

Fair enough on the stadium name. St. Pete's put in enough to call it whatever he likes and I suppose it's only one brand name to another (albeit the Britannia was a better one).
Just need a few top summer signings to give it a great season build up!

What a horrendous, embarrassing name.

Thank fuck they are filling the corner in. Now just the other 2 to go and we'll be somewhere close to where we should be.

It sounds all very soulless doesn't it? I hope people behind the scenes will make an effort to make it less so... At least we have good people behind the scenes!

Neutrals moaning all over social media. As if the Britannia Stadium wasn't a corporate name to begin with.

Im sure Denise Coates will be behind that
Selling our souls to the devil.
At least we arent owned by Tampax I suppose

I could have lived with
"Stadium365"
thats still a nice nod towards the owners without having to see the word BET

Rubbish, corporate name, local but not evoking any history or tradition.
Cheap; you can bet your bottom dollar bet365 haven't paid what others' have for naming rights, especially as it's effectively 'theirs' already!
Unbalanced; so just one corner then? Leaving main stand high and dry? How very Stoke!

This is all very well, but where will the scoreboard go?

This is all very well, but where will the scoreboard go? Directly opposite mate next to the Boothen and John Smiths.

At least it's not Gold and Sullivan giving us something like the Dildo Arena or something like that.

Post by Pedropotter on Apr 21, 2016 10:31:39 GMT
Any chance we might move the away fans into the new corner instead of giving them the prime, influential seats, right next to the tunnel?

Good news about the corner. Nothing wrong with doing just one at a time either, that certainly seems to the be easiest one to do first. If they can sell out when we get to 30,000 then I'm sure the other corners will be considered in time.
Not really too bothered by the stadium name. Did anyone expect it to be different though?
