Remind me which clubs in the Conference play at The Etihad and The Emirates?I've always thought that branded stadium names are something a Conference side would do. We aren't Aldershot.
Harry Kane said 'we should be beating teams like wolves. 'Are we just going to accept this perception of us as being small fry. Where is your pride?Anyone who voted yes should be ashamed.
SHAME
That's not really a fair comparison as both of those stadiums are new and the clubs moved from their traditional homes to be stadia.Remind me which clubs in the Conference play at The Etihad and The Emirates?
Both soulless, corporate bowls.Remind me which clubs in the Conference play at The Etihad and The Emirates?
The Jeff Shi arena ?I'd accept a stadium name of Barry Bolyneux
So was Wembley before the recent England Euros games. It’s the fans not the stadium design that gives a ground atmosphere.Both soulless, corporate bowls.

Guo used to dream crazy of a 60,000 stadium. We can do this and fill it. Kids for a quid or whatever. Perception.
Millwall moved to The New Den. Both City and Arsenal took the opportunity to massively increase income. If we can do it without moving it's a no-brainer for me. Fans moan about an increase in Season Ticket prices and the name of the ground - if we want to compete at a higher level we should embrace the modern world and take the sponsorship income - and still call it Molineux regardless.That's not really a fair comparison as both of those stadiums are new and the clubs moved from their traditional homes to be stadia.
Yeah, of course you could hear a pin drop when Aguerro scored an injury time goal against QPR to win the league...Both soulless, corporate bowls.
Surely keeping a smaller capacity is more likely to eventually result in those hardcore fans being priced out if they’re focused on increasing revenue as they’ve said?No. Income aside we don't need a massive stadium, unless of course we want a more sterile, corporate, more expensive, all round quieter (more fans do not equate to more noise/singing in a larger ground) match day experience.
Well when they sponsored Compton they called it ‘Sir Jack Hayward Training Ground sponsored by Fosun International’ so I’d imagine they could do something similar with Molineux.Fosun Stadium - Molineux or Molineux - Fosun Arena, then absolutely, no brainer.
Ethihad stadium?I've always thought that branded stadium names are something a Conference side would do. We aren't Aldershot.
What you say is very true. Thirty years ago people would have laughed at you if you said the video game industry would dwarf the film industry but it does now by some considerable margin. Same as e-sports being scoffed at right now, on this we shall have to wait and see.There’s an element of selling your soul to the highest bidder here, and traditionalists would never agree to changing the name of the ground, but we live in a commercial world now and the dollar is king. If Wolves want to eat at the big table, these kind of sacrifices are inevitable. You can change the football ground name to the Shanghai Arena if you want, it will always be Molineux, and we will always be Wolves. I say crack on Fosun.
In an ideal world higher capacity means cheaper tickets, but we know it doesn't work that way, especially with the talk of competing with those around is in the league with regards to current pricing.Surely keeping a smaller capacity is more likely to eventually result in those hardcore fans being priced out if they’re focused on increasing revenue as they’ve said?
You could argue that a bigger stadium could be beneficial in giving more people a chance to afford to be able to go.
