I'm trying to think of any ground where I can name all four ends and apart from our own I can't.

If I am right (which I'm now doubting), then I think you are the only team (other than Barnsley) where I can name every end.
For a season when vaping was the craze, it was officially the Bob Lord Stand in association with Totally Wicked. Which I hope had the old cunt rotating in his grave at high speed.

Originally posted by Nesta View PostI like the idea of, as with Cellnet, naming grounds after defunct companies.
Bristol Rovers: The Meiko Scientific
Crewe: The Focus Do It All
Gillingham: The Unwins Off-Licence
Ipswich: The Fisons
Plymouth: The Hyper Value
Rochdale: The Ferranti

We at Oxford have to suffer the ground being named after Firoz Kassam, who made loads of money out of the club by selling their old ground (and getting development rights next to the new one), and now fleeces them for rent each month.
The stadium announcer always just says "Welcome to The Stadium" at home matches.

At least thread names are doing us proud this season. This one keeps making me smile, and the Scottish fitba one has me chortling every time I see it. Nice to have the Premier League My Bloody Valentine earworm from last year carrying on too.

Bob Lord had a trophy named after him as well as a stand, which is just greedy

How many stands had the name of a beverage plastered on their roofs?
