Ok so the Chairman has sold up.....(stadium related thread)

[URZZZZZZZZ]

...and the new Chairman wants the club to be run for the fans, and by the fans (God forbid!)

First question is a new name for the stadium. What would you call it??

[Royalshow]

The Sir Steve Coppell, Gary Dickwench Arena of Love and Clapping.

[rabidbee]

The John Madejski Memorial Stadium.

[Sarah Star]

Fortress Reading (probably too ironic)
Elm Park 2 (few traditionalist would object I think)

[lozz2601]

Green Elm Park.
Cross between Elm Park (doh) and the nearby Green Park.
That way maybe they'd let us use their car park.
Plant a few elm trees around et voila.

Madejski Stadium

Reading Central Library?

Seriously, I wouldn't mind too much, so long as it's a proper name, and not simply auctioned off to a sponser.

Estadio Blakeldinho

[Sarah Star]

Madejski Stadium

He does actually deserve the stadium being named after him...not saying he's the only person who does, but he's up there for taking us so far.

The Petr Cech Memorial Stadium

Green Park is the best name after Madejski Stadium, surely?

[percy_freeman]

The Expensive Watered Down Beer Stadium

You can't change the name of the stadium simply because the Chairman moves on.
The stadium has been the Madejski Stadium for almost 10 years. Why change it?

Even ignoring the fact that John's earnt the memorial to his stewardship of the club. I can't imagine anything MORE "plastic" than renaming the stadium because he's gone.

[Southbank Old Boy]

I don't see Real Madrid renaming their ground so why should we?
