Benny The Ball Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Anybody heard anything about Stadium Naming rights being renewed or not ? Not sure how long University of Bolton are contracted for ? Be a good time to see a rebranding - hardly been the best of relationships for either party Though 8 wins in 40 is probably on a par with their academic record.

Lt. Aldo Raine Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Middlebrook? That's a bit too much like PES though, probably. I think the club's social media people tried to get "BL6" going at one point recently, which I quite liked, but people are never going to say "I'm off to BL6".

Morizio Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 How about calling it ‘the match’ or ‘wanderers’ it’s what I say where I’m off to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve made a deliberate effort in the last 12 months or so to refer to it as Middlebrook, if nothing else to get out of the habit of still saying Reebok.

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted July 13, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted July 13, 2020 Keep the stadium naming rights- if some bugger is daft enough to give the club cash to put some signs up etc then fine. Wouldn't mind seeing the immediate area get a name that can be perpetually used. Middlebrook isn't bad, but Lofthouse Park would be better.

Marc505 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Iles cant win, merely points out that those concept kits, though excellent, are pie in the sky due to small things like adidas and Umbro having nothing to do with us, and he gets pelted for it 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, or simply saying whilst they are good, the likelihood of them leading to anything is unfortunately virtually nil. He's come across as a bit of an arse the way he's said this.
