New Name

['Ayes B]

As the Ealing Road End is going to be the new home end, do we need to lovingly rename it

In the past its been known as the:

• Open End
• Ealing Road End
• Clock End
• The Home End
• The Eldarado Stand
• Away End
• The East Stand (Although probably only by Roy King)

So what do we want to call it now?

My initial thought was "The Royal Acorn"

A suggestion heard on Saturday was "The Potting Shed"

What ideas do you have or like the sound of?

List them below and maybe we can have a poll

 

[Youngbee2]

I like the Royal Acorn.

The Bike Shelter was my first thought on the new roof

 

[Les Beeavinu]

The "Nearly" Stand ' cos it nearly reaches the side - but not quite.

 

[maddogging]

a) flog it for some much needed income
b) The Peter Gilham Stand, the man that shines like a beacon from the other office bods.
or
c) the 'Wheres my bloody sunglasses it wasn't like this in BRU and I e-mailed the club Stand'

 

[hanworthbee]

Id go with the Peter Gilham stand

 

[wayfarer172]

Why not call it ''The Greg Dyke Stand''

 

[Mads Bee]

Bill Axbey stand

 

[West Ealing Bee]

I'd name it absolutely anything, if someone is willing to pay for the privilige.

 

[gavobee]

the "well good" stand

 

[Low End Bee]

Ealing Road used to be called Drum Lane previously.

 

[Nick Hester]

How about 'The Ealing Road End' ??

 

[Roy_loak]

never mind the name- will the "ealing road head cases" rear their ugly heads?

 

[SpiderBee]

I'm a bit old for that now!

In readiness for December what about the Lionel Road Stadium End?

 

[ChinaBee]

Why not call it ''The Greg Dyke Stand''

Was being sarcastic when I suggested the ''Greg Dyke Stand''
The Peter Gilham stand would be great although I think Matt Benham should be considered too

 

[Roy_loak]

I think Matt Benham should be considered too

good call sir

 

[Thorne In The Side]

I think Matt Benham should be considered too

What about the Larry Signy stand?

 

[Paulo Bee]

The "New Paddock" will do!

 

[SmiffyBee]

Bernie Watson Stand......


dogs welcome...

 

[1markbee]

Empty Stand!!!!!

 

[Ken_Hom's_Wok]

The Leroy Rosenior Stand?

 

[big neil]

The Murray Jones Stand.

 

[rob-in-poole]

How about after the soap "home and away"

i bet we get loads of away fans still going into it by mistake,which happened last time it changed over.

 

[Willo]

I'd name it absolutely anything, if someone is willing to pay for the privilige.

If that is the case lets all chip in for a The Ron Noades is a **** stand

 

[JBN]

What about the Larry Signy stand?

Were you told to write that.

If we cannot get any sponsership for it, then I would opt for either the Peter Gilham Stand or Mathew Benham Stand.

 

[RodBee]

I am up for that!

 

[GlasgowBee]

In this day and age of sponsorship I believe we should start negotiations with Bells...

 

[JBN]

Forget the 's'. Just call it the bell end.

 

[GlasgowBee]

Forget the 's'. Just call it the bell end.

I was attempting subtlety ...

 

[Paul O'Brien]

The Last Stand.

Failing that, the Potting Shed you mentioned sounds good, or the Greenhouse End.

 

[joet]

as much as peter gilham is a decent chap and works all hours for the club it'd be a bit embarrasing naming a stand after him.

"COME ON NEW ROAD SING UP"

"COME ON REFRESHING BRAEMAR SOLUTIONS, OR WHATEVER THE HELL YOU'RE CALLED STAND, SING UP"

"COME ON THE STAND NAMED AFTER ME, SING UP"

i think it should be called:

'Ealing Road' because it's on Ealing Road. Genius.

 

[sgaz]

[Paul O'Brien]

While I applaud the ideas of Benham or Gilham, I think it's got to be one of the following: Blindell, Radley-Smith, Davey, Davis or (was it Rogers?), particularly in view of the fortieth anniversary.

Failing that, the Harry Curtis end.

 

[cheekybee74]

Bill Axbey stand - the guy has supported the Bees for close to 100 years, Jesus he deserves something!!!

 

[TW1Bee]

It reminds me a lot of a long bus shelter. Ihope they keep the gates closed during the week or else people will be usiong it when queing for the 65.

Technically it's not a stand so should be called the something "terrace" until seats are installed.

 

[Boston Bee]

:yes:

The Harry Curtis Terrace

 

[GP200]

.......The Library.............

 

[Houghton Bee]

i believe it was once upon a time called the 'bob a nob' stand



might attract more ladies and/or the pink pound

 

[I Predict A Riot]

The Ron Noades Stand

 

[McBee]

The Summer Bay end.
Going along with the Home and Away theme!

When i look at it, it looks like there is one supporting beam missing on the new road side. Anyone else see that??

 

[sgaz]

The Summer Bay end.
Going along with the Home and Away theme!??

damn yabbie creekers

 

[Low End Bee]

If we call it the Chiswick End it may increase the property value.

 

[IverBee]

How about the "MFI stand". Delivered late with half the bits missing.....

or, the "Well p*ssed off for loosing my BRU seat" stand.

 

[jlove]

It should be the "Unsponsored Stand, please call 0208 568 9940 and ask for Peter".

 

[Les Beeavinu]

It should be the "Unsponsored Stand, please call 0208 568 9940 and ask for Peter".

lol

 

[stevenagebee]

I'm sure our leaders are securing the most lucrative sponsorship deal they can. lol

Of course the plastic roof means we can't scrawl the sponsors name on top so that will knock a few quid off what we get. Doh!

 

[Les Beeavinu]

Part of the deal in receiving planning permission I believe. Couldn't have happened without it. Mind you, if the same attention is paid to the roof as the rest of the ground maintenance, it'll look sh*t within two years.

 

[Brentford_till_die]

Bill Axbey Stand

 

[londondude]

I agree with Brentford Till Die and go with the Bill Axbey Stand
