    I said the same thing to my Wednesday supporting cousin at the weekend. H asked me if I still sit in the Ponte End, I said yes, but it's not been called the Ponte end in years. This was shortly after he disagreed with me about selling the stadium naming rights. So I used the Ponte end as an example, he didn't know it had changed names under sponsorship 6 or 7 times in the last 15 years or so.

    Buccaneers.........doesn't really relate to the town..... but I'd still go
    And if the billionaire wanted to change the shirt to pink with yellow flowers.......I would still go

    And the more important thing - if a billionaire did take over and those two things did happen........I'd go to the WELL feeling much more upbeat and positive than what I do now!!!

    I think there's only one way it could be possible known as anything but the Ponte and that's if it was named the Rimmo stand

    We could be called the Barnsley Bum Boys wearing the stars and stripes of the USA sponsored by Al-Quaida and I'd still go. I don't know what the Hull City Tigers and Cardiff Red Dragons supporters are getting so worked up about.

    Pink shirts with yellow flowers? You were having a go at our badge last year saying you were embarrassed by the 'two limp wristed gays' that formed part of our identify. So you are embarrassed by the miner and glass-blower but you'd be happy with a pink shirt with yellow flowers on it. I smell a wind-up.
