Managers and players come and go, to have a stand named after someone i believe they should have been at the club more than 4 years. I loved Eddie and enjoyed his reign more than any other to date.

Fergie only just had it done after 25 years and just as much silverware.

Well said Craig. Eddie May was a fantastic manager but naming a stand is in my opinion ott. What would happen if Phil Dwyer or Jason Perry or Scott Young died? The club should do something to remember him-maybe rename a bar or corporate area after him.

Has to be someone that has a more legendary status than Eddie May unfortunately, however - Eddie May was the reason I'm a Cardiff fan, loved it when I was a little ankle biter! RIP EM

The Fred Stewart Stand

Managed city for 22 years, gained promotion to the first division (finished second on goal difference.)

FA Cup : Reached the Quarter-Finals twice, the Semi-Finals in his first season, the Final in 1925 and won the cup in '27.

Not to mention paying the transfer fee for his first signing out of his own pocket!

Good man, but there are many, more deserving people than him
