There's always one clown who has to muddy the water.

We are discussing a Leeds legend and a tribute in his honour and you come up with this.

Fact is , Tigertot is probably not far wide of the mark .

Yep like I say I don't mind if the club do need the sponsorship money from the renaming of the Stand but I think any "honour" to John Holmes should be seperate from any corporate sponsorship.

Not sure why, just like Bramleyrhino, it makes me go urgh to think of it!

Wrong thread to make sh#t jokes on imo.

I thought it wasn't bad for me. If you want to look through rose tinted glasses at the running of a corporate body then fair enough. If you are prepared to let your dominant position in RL wane it's no skin off my nose. I have stated what I would like the stand called, but there's no way can or will the board be able to ignore the commercial realities of naming a stand.

I was wondering that as well ?????

I thought it was a poor joke that's all.
With hindsight i may have over-reacted!

As has been said using the words South Stand has marketing potential even if it gets prefixed with a corporate sponsor.

I don’t think the club could honour the memory of John Holmes more than with a statue, respectful and long-lasting. I can just hear a young lad turning to his old man and saying “who’s that dad?” – his memory would be immortalised.

It still shocks me that he has gone.

A statue would be a fitting tribute.

his family will probably choose from photographs what the statue would look like and there have been some excellent pictures of John over the years
