'Petition' for a Bert Trautmann stand.

How about renaming the soon to be developed South Stand the Bert Trautmann Stand?

Would be fitting with it being behind the goal.

Have always said the two stands should be named in honour of Bert and Frank Swift. Has to happen now. Personally, i'd rather the North Stand be named after Bert and the South Stand Frank for two reasons - i associate Bert more with the North Stand of Maine Road, and naming the South Stand after Frank, given it's where the most vocal fans sit, might dissuade elements of supporters from singing Munich songs.

The Man is a part of footballing folklore, there quite simply has to be something.

Any guy who carries on playing with a broken neck is a legend in my eyes, get it done
