The Re-naming of The Emirates Stadium

Post by OneBardGooner »

It's bound to happen sometime - sooner or later when the contract & moolah are up for grabs , and I was wondering if any Gooners had any suggestions' for the fortress that isn't??

How about "Wenger's Rosy Garden" (with a nod to flash on that one!) :wink: or "Trophyless Towers"

I'm sure these *word censored* wouldn't have a problem calling it the "Tottenham Hotspur" stadium if those lot paid em enough money :banghead:

It should be Ashburton Grove. Done.

I don't see why they don't just call it Highbury?

Would the fans not be annoyed at that? Maybe they wouldn't mind like but for me there's only one Highbury, and the Emirates is an incredibly poor substitute for it, I don't think it deserves the name, but that might just be me!

old ground was the arsenal stadium which happened to be in highbury so the official name was never highbury. but yeah highbury would be a great name since the grove is still in the highbury area is it not :barscarf: and please not some shite name like the stadium of light :-P

Players are holding interviews with Citrone next week. Throw in Wenger's handbrake and empty petrol tanks statements we can see where this is is going.
So the Citrone Stadium for under-used, cumbersome , high maintainence, over-priced Cars (Players)

Tbf, most people I speak to still refer to it as Highbury. As Reb pointed out, it was never officially called Highbury so we may as well make this official :barscarf:

Although, I would put money on it that when the contract runs out with Emirates, it will be another major American brand. With Kroenkes ties to Walmart, I can see it being the Walmart Arena. :suicide: :suicide: :suicide:
