New Stand Names!

[McGrath]

Instead of 'stand' what about 'The Sharp End'

"I'm going to sit at the Sharp End", it has a ring to it

 

[Snowman]

No stand named after Lord Wilder, he is deserving of a statue with this pose;
View attachment 26588

I think a good idea would be to name each corporate box after a legend (unless they do this already), I wouldn't know as I'm a peasant...

They do, but the name is only shown internally on the corridor such as one year we had the Mel Rees and another year ??? can't recall but it was legend.

Christian Nade's Turn At Highbury Stand

Happened at the lane!

 

[bromtom]

South Stand - Laver Stand.
Kop - Dulux Kop (might get some free paint so we can get rid of the pink on the outside)
Kop Corner - Why did we put seats up against this wall stand
John Street - Sheffield United Family Club Family Stand Please Don't Say Fuck or Bugger Stand
Bramall Lane - Away End
Westfield Corner - The Muller Corner (free yogurt with concession ticket)

 

[Blade56]

Names I can't believe haven't been suggested......

Siddarn Stand
BladeyMcBladeFace Stand

But I like...... The Forged in Steel Stand

Wendy are renaming one of theirs the Could Fall Down Stand and another Drop the Dead Dolphin Stand and the big un the Hoho Rusty Lining Stand

 

[I should coco]

just seen Liverpool naming stand after kenny dalglish, so got me thinking, if you had to name the 4 stands at the lane. Who would you name them after.

Taking the spirit of the OP, I'd try to build the Sheaf-Mersey connection and use the players we connections with:

The Phil Thompson stand, for his leadership of Porterfield's team of geriatrics in 84/85
The Stevie G Stand, for his part in the development in the laws of the game and the new 'intent' rule
The Alan Hansen Stand, because we nearly signed him before Liverpool
And the last one, by a nose, The Ian Rush Stand for his years of wonderful contributions to our team.

 

[ShockingBadBuy]

What about stands named after songs:

The 'greasy chip butty' stand
The 'You're gonna get your fuckin 'ead kicked in' stand (family enclosure)

And for the away end, I present the 'piss on the bastards below' stand (away fans on lower tier)

Alternatively, as John St concourse will provide chips with yer pie--still the only one in the ground to do so ?--we might go with the "aaaaaaAAAAAAAARRRRGGGHHHH, You Fat Bastard !" stand ?

 

[Billyblade]

I can remember years ago reading an article about stands named after legends

Wolves - Billy Wright stand
Man U - Bobby Charlton stand
Notts County - Derek Pavis stand etc etc.

I was amazed to see us on the list................ for the John Street Stand WTF

I notice that the West Stand at Man City is called the Colin Bell Stand. Missed a trick there. I think the Colin Bell End has a better ring to it

Apparently there is no known photograph of Ian Rush in a United shirt,well according to my mate who was looking for one recently,can anyone help him out?

 

[elgoog44]

The one at the back
The one on that side
The one on the other side
the one where visiting supporters sit and sometimes also Blades if the Allocation is not sold by opposition teams, - we might need a longer than the stand is type of sign for that one.

 

[coaxingstar71]

I think they should re-erect the "Jessica Ennis" stand sign, then put a big cross through it and crudely write "Ched Evans" underneath it!

Or what about "THE NO FUCKING FLARES IN ERE" stand!?!?

Including a picture of Jess smiling while Ched bends her over..........

 

[JJBlade]

We could rename a couple of our stands

The not so New Stand

The unfit for purpose Kop

The empty corner if anybody brings a big following stand

The South Yorkshire Police and Sheffield City Council Health and Safety Executive's permission to open Bramall Lane lower tier stand

[broomhillblade]

just seen Liverpool naming stand after kenny dalglish, so got me thinking, if you had to name the 4 stands at the lane. Who would you name them after.

Maybe
Joe Shaw (record appearances)
Harry Johnson (record scorer)
Alan Woodward (local legend)
Currie or Hagan (best player)

None of them my era though really, so maybe :-
Keith Edwards
Brian Deane
Dave Bassett
Dane Whitehouse

Hopefully Chris will warrant one soon! When does back to back promotions, a cup win and European football at the lane.

The AA* Stand?

* = Alcoholics Anonymous

 

[broomhillblade]

What about after famous 'fans'

The Jessica Ennis stand has a nice ring to it

Maybe there could be Jessica Ennis Hat Stand - on which to put Magic Hats.

 

[Alfreton14Blade]

The FlareyMcFlareface Kop

 

[DifferentClass]

The Stinkapiss Kop?

More like Stinkaweed

 

[Constantly Optimistic...]

Woodward's (score from a) Corner Stand
Currie (and chips) Kop
Dearden (over 80s only) Stand - sorry!

And finally, the best I hope...........

Magic Jack's (Hat) Stand
