The Chris Wilder Stand
 
I don't understand why so many people get wound up by todger. He's not rude or aggressive and often makes himself look stupid with inaccuracies. While ever people are biting at him he's winning. Read what he posts, laugh inwardly at how pathetic it is but don't reply. He'll soon get bored.
 
I am of the opinion that statues and having things named after you should only happen after you're dead. I thought that was a fairly widely accepted rule.
 
The Mel Rees Stand would be a fitting tribute to a popular keeper of days gone by although might encounter debate regarding the surname pronunciation.
 
John Street, Shoreham, Lane, New Stand.

Always been known as the 'South Stand' AFAIA, in fact even back in 75/76, I can't recall it ever been the 'New Stand'.

Are you sure you aren't thinking of S6?

I know it all seems the same oop North and can be quite confusing to the Metropolitan Elite.

No. I’m not. I’ve heard loads of Blades call it the new stand, from 1982 onwards. I imagine they called it that before then too but I didn’t go to the matches before then. Very few people sat in it apart from ‘big’ games like Rotherham or Donny during Christmas. From my viewpoint at the back of the kop, it looked like a few flat cappers with flasks.

I guess it depends when you started coming down - I still call it the Laver Stand, even when on the phone to (a sometimes confused) ticket office

I’m not sure I’ve started coming down yet. Not since around 1987.

Always call it 'new South stand '

I’ve heard it called that too, but I don’t like it as it implies there was an old one. I just call it God’s Click and Collect these days.

I called it the New Stand until the early 1980s and so did my dad.

I should of course, bow to your superior knowledge, but being a stubborn Yarkshur bastard, I'll keep digging.

Do any of you other assorted wankers, tosspots and shitstirrers want to agree with Silent Blade and BushBlade , or are there some wise, clever, handsome Blades who agree with me that it was always the 'South Stand'?

No pressure......

I've always called it the South Stand, though I'm not as old as some of you buggers. I was going regularly from the early eighties though.
 
I'm not clever wise nor handsome (but used to be) but I agree with ' I should coco' . I got a season ticket in the first year it opened (1975 or 6) having watched from all the other parts of the ground from 1947. I reckon it was officially named ,' South Stand', as I should coco says. However, as others say it was sometimes referred to as ' New South Stand ' or simply 'The New Stand' by some supporters. By the way- my seat number was Row O seat 91 or 92 (memory fading) until I came to live abroad in 1994 (still come back for occasional games). Does anybody on here have that seat now? It was directly next to the Directors' area but may have been consumed by the new extension for The Premier League. Love those last 3 words.
 
Always been new South stand in our house since dad first took me to reserve games just after it was put up
 
Away end

Does anyone use their road names instead?
