New Central Park for me. Always will be. I don't care what anyone else calls it.
We all of us long ago gave up the joy of having time-honoured and instantly recognisable stadium names. Millennial fans will never know what locations like Central Park, Knowsley Road and the Boulevard actually meant. They were old sheds, but ancient and soaked in history and tradition.
It doesn't matter anymore. How could it with stupid names knocking around like The Mend-A-Hose Jungle and the Totally Wicked Stadium?
Our grandfathers would turn in their graves.

As a wanderers fan I can confirm it’ll always be The Reebok.
Even when going shopping you’ll tell folk ‘just nipping Reebok’  |

| Quote: Wigan6/Leeds1 Andy "Europa Point Investment Corporation (“EPIC”) has won the naming rights for the stadium - DW Stadium no more.
"Won the rights" as in "No outside company wanted to sponsor the stadium, so the owner found a nice tax-deductible way of moving his own cash from one pocket to another"?
