The 17 Bus Whilst my suggestions were tongue in cheek, why do we need names at all.

At EP we had Town End, Tilehurst End, Southbank, and feck knows what the stand was called, STAND I think??

So North Stand should be Town End, South, away end, east Stand and west, all works fro me.

Agree with renaming the North Stand as the Town End. But what happens when her Maj finally grants Reading city status? Does it become the City End? Doesnt sound so good to me.

Yes. By taking the word "Nob" from Hob Nob, he has implied that all south-standers are "Nobs". Well played

Or better still "The Oliver Holt Media Centre" in recognition of him being Sports Journalist of the Year for the last 253 years!

Cavaman Surprise, surprise.....Mr Madejski to get call from the Palace.

Stadium to be renamed Sir Madejski Stadium


The stadium is not called the John Madejski Stadium, so why would anyone think it could be changed? He wouldn't call it the Sir Madejski Stadium would he! :roll:

the potential is there though.

I say go for renaming it to "The Sir John Robert Madejski OBE DL Stadium". Not only would it really annoy Oliver Holt, but it's also an anagram of "Shortened jailbird bosom jerk Stadium", which I think would be a good alternative name if he sold up.
