Just looked at picture and going by other welsh signs, it does mean (the welcome stand!) Have to ask club if its a name change because it's not been mentioned anywhere before.

It will still be the canton stand an it will still have canton stand written outside.

People on here make a massive deal about nothing all the time.

Yep can't remember anyone moaning about about the spar family stand or even calling it that at ninian.

I hope people still call it Canton, regardless of what it is officially called.

Imagine if United fans kept calling their training ground the AON Training Complex as opposed to Carrington because of the naming rights.

Or Newcastle fans saying 'I'm going to the Sports Direct Arena'. It just won't happen.

No it does not, it is this:- Eisteddle (stand)
CROESO (welcome)
stand (stand)
All it is saying is WELCOME and (stand is in Welsh and english.
It does not name the stand it is just calling it a stand, with welcome in the middle

As a fluent welsh speaker i can honestly say that "Eisteddle Croeso" does indeed translate directly to the "Croeso Stand" (or "welcome stand" for you Saes speakers!)

I imagine that the stand name will quickly be dropped IF we have a very bad season!!! (wink wink)


HOWEVER - MORE OF A PRESSING ISSUE HERE:

WE HAVE 4!!!! MALYSIAN FLAGS IN OUR GROUND AND.....

NO WELSH ONES?!!!!!!!!

But that would be pretty pointless as I think everyone can gather it's a stand. :laughing6:

If it was welcoming us to the stand, it would say 'Croeso y Eisteddle Canton'.

Swansea have the same sponsorship and their north stand was also renamed the Croeso Stand.

Case closed. :wave:

No it's not been renamed. It's been sponsored that's all nobody calls the family stand the peters pie end do they.

Re: " Canton Stand Renamed - CROESO STAND "(Welcome Stand

Maybe, but looking at the poster, I'd say that was officially renamed. :thumbup:

I wouldn't be. The translation of the Welsh wording would suggest that I'm right. If the stand hasn't been renamed, then the only thing that's wrong, would be the welsh wording. :thumbup:

Well the wording on the outside of the stadium in big massive blue letters says canton stand.

Have you proof that this hasn't changed, or are you just making an assumption?

If the stand has been renamed, then I would be correct with my posting. If it hasn't, the only incorrect thing would be the wording on the Visit Wales banners. As the text clearly states it as the "Welcome Stand".

Hope this clears it up for you. :ayatollah:

Why have they waited until we get to the premiership? Apart from the increased exposure. Promoting Wales within the stadium is a good idea, and should have been in place prior to premiership football.

It looks like it will be.

Went down the stadium earlier and 'Eisteddle Canton Stand' had been taken down, replaced with a big, wide rectangular frame. Looks like a big red sign with Visit Wales - Eisteddle Croese will be going in there, or something along those lines.

Did I say that it was? Visit Wales should have been knocking down our door a long tome ago, not just because our profile has increased. That was my point. :thumbup:
