I wonder if this infringes on Langstones ownership of potential naming rights to the stadium though? I'd have thought the stands would have had sponsors by now anyway otherwise?

There's another thread on this somewhere.

I think the grandstand should be renamed.
The Ninian shouldn't as it's named after a holy place. The Canton and Grange ends are named after local areas, and IMO shouldnt be changed.
And almost every club has a ''grandstand'' so to be sort of unique we should call it the Eddie May Stand :ayatollah:

So a stand named for someone who managed us for what, 4 years, someone like Jimmy Scoular on the other hand.

Seriously, some perspective...

The Eddie May Stand, I like it. They should definitely rename the Grandstand. :ayatollah:

Re: EDDIE MAY STAND AT CCS...........

Mon Apr 16, 2012 7:19 pm

Would rather it be called the Fred Keenor Grand Stand. :?:

Nerd kind of has a point here.

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!

The Eddie May Stand?

I back nathan blake to name a stand after eddie may! A perfect tribute for the man :ayatollah:

Re: The Eddie May Stand?

it does sound pretty good. The May Stand? :ayatollah: :lol:

Re: The Eddie May Stand?

Tue Apr 17, 2012 1:14 pm

Maybe it will ge tthe boring fuckers at ninian stand to "stand" up and be more in-voice getting behind the team :lol: :ayatollah:
Also I don't mean to be disrespectful or negative, while Eddie May was a great man for the club, the likes of Alex Ferguson didn't have a stand renamed after him until what 25 years as manager and just as much silverware? I just think someone needs to be at a club a lot longer than 4 years was it, to have a stand renamed after them, again I Dont mean any disrespect to Eddie May, its just what I believe :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: .
