Term-X 7,891 Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 The name is irrelevant. It's the fans who make the atmosphere, not the name.The name is important though, because it exudes history and soul. dave30 and King11Didier 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 The name is important though, because it exudes history and soul.Yeah, but at the same time, if naming it something like the "Samsung Arena" will bring us more revenue than going for something original, then it's one thing we could live with.

Kez 2,727 Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 It will just attract more plastic fans & tourists and the atmosphere will die forever. The real fans have been pushed out of the game due to the ridiculous prices of tickets. Liquidator, Ollie and BlueLion. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Maybe if you went once in a while, you could help change that, eh?I go to as many games as I can afford to. Unfortunately I'm not in the position where I'm minted, but my support of this club is unwavering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall 315 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Prices won't drop the whole reason for moving into a new stadium is to increase revenue primarily through ticket sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike 12,049 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 How can we move stadiums when Peter Osgood's ashes were put to rest there?If it is as amazing as the Allianz Arena and has a better name, maybe I will accept it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 4,400 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Still seems fitting to that the ashes will go with SB, even if the bridge gets demolished the ashes will still be in with it somewhere and both will live on together somewhere.

The only clubs who don't do this are those who can't fill the seats. Having just spent around £100 million in 12 months on players, can you really expect them to lower prices to make the ground a little noiser? And tbh, the 'real' fans who make the atmosphere, as people refer to them as, DO go week in, week out. Regardless of the price. There's just not many of them.
