Stadium Naming Rights / Press Conference [Merged]

He is saying that Etihad Stadium means United Stadium.

What are people going to say?
If you say your going to the Etihad Stadium/Eastlands they will say Man City.
Say your going to the United Stadium they will think your going Owed Trafford.


How many people bar the bitter cunts will say United Stadium?

The City of Manchester Stadium is a mouthful. No-one calls it 'SPORTCity' much either if at all. Some people use the press term Eastlands (i personally don't) and the stadium itself has been home to City for around 8 years, this deal means it'll be called the Etihad Stadium for 10 years, maybe longer if they renegotiate.

I have no problem with it finally having a certified, agreed upon, name like the Etihad, or 'Union' Stadium.

It's short, sweet and simple. CoMS was sort of catchy, and it was nice to have it known as the City of Manchester Stadium, but it's too much of a mouthful in conversation.
 
it means Union

Union City Blues!

Etihad

Etihad meaning ‘union’ in Arabic is a young airline – founded in 2003 as the national flag carrier of the United Arab Emirates state of Abu Dhabi. From it’s main base at Abu Dhabi International Airport, the airline operates close to 150 daily flights to 64 destinations in 42 countries – as of 2010 – and carries over 6 million passengers per year. Etihad’s operations are mostly centred in Europe and Asia, but the airline also services Oceania, Africa and North America.

Don't think anyone cares mate. Mauine Road would have been a different story, but no ones ever known what to call it really.
