If Mr Koukash does purchase the stadium what are peoples thoughts on the name of the stadium and the stands ?
Could the stadium have a more user-friendly,spectator-seductive
title than the SCS ( Salford City Stadium ) and the COSS ( City Of Salford Stadium ) ? Naming it the Lance Todd Arena may give recognition to heritage and history but is that too far back for a modern breed of rugby league spectator ?
Should the West Stand become the Koukash Family Stand ? The East Stand The New Shed ? Should the south stand become the
Andy Gregory stand to recognise his achievements;his efforts for Salford,as coach and recently,and as a constant reminder to hold onto young players at the club ! Andy could open the stand at the last game of the season,against Widnes,the club he went to from Salford,and with Denis Betts in attendance as Widnes coach,
Graham Lowe could relive some memories.
The away stand could become the Adrian Morley stand as a proud Salfordian who went away and achieved honours in Australia and on the international scene.
It would be good for Dr Koukash to meet the greats of rugby league with Salford connections.
Whether the developments will lend themselves to naming the stadium 'Port Salford Sporting Complex' which would give a nod to Peel Holdings while retaining the name Salford in the title.
Would people except 'The New Willows' ? Barton Park ?
A possible title would be 'The Koukash Family Stadium For Salford'. The Koukash name could be replaced by the name of any sponsor and it would still be '........Family Stadium For Salford.'
Whether that attracts new numbers may depend on success on the field.
Any other suggestions while we wait for announcements ?

I can only assume that the last post was tongue in cheek - the Adrian Morley and Andy Gregory stands?!

The Lance Todd stadium

well it make one poster happy ([sizefor once[/size)

It's already been unofficially dubbed the Gus Risman Stadium. Job done on that front.

As for naming the stands, nothing daft and gimmicky and no naming stands after people. Let's do it in the traditional way.

Main Stand (The Willows Main Stand, maybe?)
Peel Green End
River End (River Irwell End?)
Barton Stand / Motorway Side


This is, of course, all hypothetical...

I couldn't give one TBH :-
The important matter is the deal is concluded for the Club , our debts are paid , and I can carry one supporting the Reds this season.
We don't know what type of deal is being negociated for the Stadium & surrounding development , outright ownership or an element of shared ownership with one or both parties?
The only thing that matters is that it is successful & doesn't derail the whole deal.

If that happens , our Club is saved & we have a stake in the property to boot . he can damn well re-name everything down to the kiosks & the toilets with my blessing

The Lance Todd arena sounds bloody brilliant to me since we still have the Lance Todd trophy rl fans will know exactly where that comes from so it's not too far in the past.
I have to disagree wroth GT tho........I like the ideas of making the stands after someone of note. Wigan have got the Boston stand and I think thats great. They would need to catchy tho and not long winded.
I agree with middleman tho...the most important thing is the deal done!!!!!
