Any objections these days if St Mary’s Stadium had a Sponsor ? 21:45 - May 7 with 3274 views

If it was a good sponsor and paying well, then the time has come in my eyes.

One thing I hoped for when Dragãn took over was more commercial revenue, but it’s not happened and that’s a big issue.

As long as it has the title St Mary's Stadium in it I wouldn't be upset

Should take a lead from FCUM who's stadium sponsor for a while was bargain booze, which lead to them playing in the Bargain Booze Stadium

I noticed their fans all seemed to have been given those horrific Leicester-style clappers last night.

Which had me wanting Barnsley to knock them out.

They should leave the name alone.

If they can't make money from other sources, they should try harder.

Where does it stop?

The 'bet fair kick off'

Another 'screwfix throw in'

Maybe our parent club Göztepe would be kind enough to sponsor us?

You cannot reason a person out of something they were not reasoned into.

I am a traditionalist, but the stadium name is a big source of income for a football club these days, I agree with you some of the things that are sponsored are getting a bit silly.

I take the point about the money but in terms of 'tradition', stadium names are (or were) a big part of it.

And maybe with so many new stadiums popping up, the old names disappear anyway - but I'd still hope that a St Mary's name change would be resisted.

Cardiff fans rightly kicked off when the owner tried to change the colour.

I'm not sure that fans would put up with a team name change ( 'Axa Soton Dolphins' anyone?)

I'd like to see the stadium name protected too.

The game - particularly at Premier League/VAR level seems to be seriously losing the plot on many many fronts.

Time for a 'back to basics' reset.

for some reason, 'The Friends Provident St Marys Stadium' never really caught on.

Unless it is something catchy, gimmicky, or short, it will still get called St Marys.

I don’t think a sponsor these days would entertain the doubled up name like we had with Friends Provident.

A double deal in shirt and stadium is worth exploring.

Absolutely not. A couple of mill in stadium name will make little difference for the club and I'm always pleased we have a normal stadium name when I hear the farting on about the emirates, the bet365 etc etc. Fk that.

25/30 years ago that would have been a brilliant shirt sponsor when we were still at the old ground 🙂
