If they named our stadium the wonga stadium I'd be upset

It`s White Hart Lane or nothing.

I seriously doubt it will remain White Hart Lane Sandy.
Not least because we are moving up the road.

It's a sign of the times.. Etihad, Emirates, Sports Direct, JJB, Reebok.. if we're going to compete financially we'll have to do it..


How about Power Horse

Yes I think the same as you Sandy..........................

The thing about companies like Wonga is that they target vulnerable individuals with catchy advertising making out borrowing money is easy & solves all your worries. Except it does not, with interest rates sky high and annual APR's around 1500% someone can soon find themselves deep in financial trouble.

Whilst we are also sponsored by financial institutes, ours are investment companies and not loan sharks.

Well it will always be WHL to me, just Arsenals will always be known as Highbury and St James Park will always be Newcastles ground.

I have no problem with the new Stadium having a different name as it will be a totally non historic thing.

WHL will always remain a place of great memories and matches...................................................

For instance if the new ground was The Investec Stadium or something like that & it brought in valuable revenue then I am comfortable with that.

The problems of course come when the sponsorship comes up for renewal..........................the incumbent company can bid less knowing that it could create problems re-naming a stadium every 5-10 years!

The Barclays Premiership.

All financial sponsors, at every level, merely consider us as punters to be mugged off.

WHL will always have an emotional link with all of the Tottenham faithful. Sadly the accountants dont really care.

I wouldnt be surprised if Levy sold the naming rights to each of the new stands as a means of maximising revenue! After all werent we the 1st team in the Pl to bring out strips purely for the CL as well as our home away spare kits etc!
Cash is king.

Do Arsenal really believe their ground is still Highbury?
There's no such place in Woolwich!

How about the Sandy Brown Stadium in honour of our 15 goal scorer from the 1901 Cup Run, and I would also get a free ticket for promoting him for the last 100+ years.

Wongarena?

Sid James Park and Why Tart Lane, it would be a crime to lose either of those 2 names.

Gotta love the Chas and Dave.
Bet you own their 1981 classic, Inky.

Fans get used to it. Doubt arsenal fans care about their stadiums being called the emirates. I would be happy but it does depend massively on the sponsor.
