I still like my one the best to be honest. Air Asia Arena - The AAA
Under Les Ferdinand:
Luke Freeman, top assists in the league: 4million
Alex Smithies, great goalie for this club: 3,5million
Charlie Austin, 19 Premier League goals: 4million
Jack Robinson: Contract ran out, left for free
And many more mistakes
It cannot be called White City .......too racist I'm afraid.
That's strange. Until you mentioned that, the thought would have never occurred to me. Pity, as I think White City Stadium (sponsored by...whoever) would be a great name.
Sure there will be plenty of sponsors willing to have their name, but there;s also the possibility of donig what Man City did with the Etihad stadium - a company owned by the same family who own the club. They paid £400m quid for the naming rights, an unprecedented sum, but it was also a way of diverting their own cash into the kitty and therefore the turnover to avoid the UEFA Fair Play rules.
So wouldn;t rule out the Arcelor Mittal stadium or the Air Asia Stadium by any means.
Meanwhile, over in East London, West Ham are looking to rename the Boleyn Ground as a mark of respect towards their former Icelandic owners for what they did for their club.
The shortlist is down to three choices apparently.
