City Voice - Name the stand

Maybe I'm just not as naïve but why do people believe that their views will be taken into consideration?
Who the fuck here voted/asked for digital LED flags? Haha come on....

Every season card holder could ask this marketing research company probably from London that we want to name the stand after Bert Trautmann but they will sit around in their suits and decide on what will make the most money, engage supporters the most.... Oh we know, name the stand the Origami Yushi stand for a day as he is a citizen for well over 3mths now and retweets every one of our Twitter accounts tweets every day... This guy is a top top blue.
 
I too replied stating that it was a gimmick idea, especially for the south stand. We want to recreate a stand with identity, ala the Kippax, not a gimmicky stand. Told them that their idea would be better placed in the Family Stand.
 
Also said it was cringe and that I hated it. Hopefully the club will take note.

For me, it has to be the 1894 Stand. Purely because it's now the home of the singing section, organised by the 1894 group, and if they really want the idea of having one stand to rival those that we see from clubs in Europe, then they need to associate that stand with the people in it and the message behind it. It would be a great coup for those that started the 1894 group and a real commitment from City that they are behind it.

The fact that it's also an important part in City's history makes it a no brainer. If I turned up and the stand was in my name i'd feel actually embarrassed.

Spot on!! Calling the stand 1894 when you are yet to outsung anyone falls short of a guy who helped us to win the FA Cup with a broken neck - or our great owner!
 
It's unfair to say we don't have a singing section when this upcoming season is the first one where we've properly had people en masse voluntarily relocate their season tickets to create one, and a ball hasn't been kicked yet.

That said, I'm not advocating we name a stand after a singing section that hasn't been proven to be effective yet either. Just makes sense (to me) to let time pass and see if there is a cause to rename the stand the 1894 stand based on what goes on in the stand.
