    Matalan Oakwell Stadium would be fine by me, or even Poundland Oakwell Stadium, Don 't care who the sponsors are as long as they're ethical and the money's right. Of coursethe brand snobs on this board would be up in arms so for their purposes we could have the Waitrose Oakwell Stadium or summert

    You reckon we're renaming Oakwell?

    Maybe he meant Russell Brand was coming to Oakwell to talk politics with the BBSers?

    My thoughts as well. If someone is willing to pay a million over the next 3-4 years and the company are good enough then i'd be all for more funds being brought into the club. Us fans would still call it Oakwell anyway. I don't know an Huddersfield Town fan who doesn't say they play at Leeds Road rather than John Smiths Stadium.

    Yeah, but as a supporter of a different club I only think of Huddersfield as John Smith's Stadium now.

    No just joking, it's a strange invite though. Wouldn't bother me as long as we not selling stadium rights for peanuts

    That's true. I mean it's had four names if you include Kirkless Stadium as it was built before naming rights were bought by the builders.

    The Town fans on DATM forum refer to their stadium as 'the JSS'.

    Why would you care about what other supporters call our stadium?

    I like sitting in the Ponty End but I doubt that's what Huddersfield fans call it.

    The fans still call it the Ponty to be fair.
