November 10, 201114 yr classy name Ashley has picked to call St James Park http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/EXCLUSIVE-Newcastle-s-St-James-Park-stadium-renamed-the-Sports-Direct-Arena-as-Mike-Ashley-ends-120-years-of-history-article828848.html
November 10, 201114 yr Renaming old grounds especially one like St James Park just isn't right. If you want to sell naming rights build a new one or go down the Denver Broncos route and keep the original name in there.
November 10, 201114 yr Hang on, we forgetting the bloody silly name of the place we suffer at every other week?
November 10, 201114 yr did anyone hear micky quinn giving brazil a good bollocking on talksport. whats got up his nose?
November 10, 201114 yr Hang on, we forgetting the bloody silly name of the place we suffer at every other week? but there was no history attached to the Reebok when it was named it has never been called anything else.
November 10, 201114 yr Author did anyone hear micky quinn giving brazil a good bollocking on talksport. whats got up his nose? woooah Quinn on with Brazil there's no Cuntani?
November 10, 201114 yr but there was no history attached to the Reebok when it was named it has never been called anything else. Though Reebok the name has history as it was founded in Bolton in the 19th century. I think the company was Fosters or something like that.
November 10, 201114 yr Though Reebok the name has history as it was founded in Bolton in the 19th century. I think the company was Fosters or something like that. If you go on their website you'd think we've never been in Bolton. Americans, re-writing history, again.
November 10, 201114 yr woooah Quinn on with Brazil there's no Cuntani? quinn was on the blower, giving them both an ear full
November 10, 201114 yr Who cares what its Officiall called, the fans will still call it what it is, the streets will stay the same, the Train Ststaion will still be St. James Park.
November 10, 201114 yr What about Leicester's ground. It hasn't been up five minutes but it is no longer The Walkers Stadium.
November 10, 201114 yr Hasn't it been called "The Sports Direct Arena at St. James' Park" for a couple of seasons anyways? I'm sure I heard about this before, maybe even when Big Sam was there... Edited November 10, 201114 yr by SnoopJohnnyJohn
November 10, 201114 yr man united have also decided to change the stadium name to the paxo stadium due to the stuffing from man city the other week.
November 11, 201114 yr I don't see what the fans are getting so bent out of shape for, it really doesn't matter what the ground is called does it? - everybody will still refer to it as St James' Park They claim to be a massive club and expect to be challenging for honours, this won't happen unless they start spending money on signings (albeit they are doing very well thus far this season without any new signings) - the extra ?8M-?10M per season that Ashley reckons sponsorship will generate might just help them achieve the success they want. They don't like to admit it, but Ashley has probbaly over the last few years saved them from going bust and he seems to be turning things around The bunch of inbred deluded wankers
November 11, 201114 yr Newcastle have spent loads this summer. Cabaye 4m Obertan 5m Ba - 4m Marveaux undisc Abeid - undisc Most of this was obviously generated from the Carroll sale. They have bought well. Sell anyone if you recieve an inflated offer, replace with players from unfashionable leagues, who cosy less. Cabaye at 4m might be the best bit of business all season.
November 11, 201114 yr i thought ba was free? I thought he was as well, didn't he have a release clause that allowed hom to go for nothing if West Ham got relegated?
November 11, 201114 yr Maybe he was, unsure. If Ba was free I'm surprised nobody else was in for him.
