[Official Site] WELCOME TO GROVE STREET

The programne name change is going hand in hand with the official sites continuous referral to Oakwell as Grove Street

 

You either saw that post or you didn’t , I DIDN’T

 

sorry mate this one has gone right over my head which not being very tall wasnt very hard

 

I DIDN'T say you had. Just stating a fact. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

 

They're the Four Horsemen Of The Apocalypse, old mate. Only to be seen at Armageddon (or when calling our matchday programme 'Grove Street').
In all fairness to them, they did stop at the zebra crossing to allow a Mum and her two kids to cross.

 

touchy!

I couldn’t care less what you call it mate, I’ve no doubt those that buy it will enjoy it. I know it’s always worth the money and good quality

 

Ow I live on Grove St. You can all **** off

 

Then why not ask me if I’d seen it before giving me an ultimatum ?

 

Myself and my two colleagues in media and marketing made the decision. It’s been called BE RED for years, before my time. It’s our address, it’s where the programme is sold, and we just like the name of Grove Street. There is absolutely no more to it than that.

As I’ve said recently, since I started in the job I have often referred to Grove Street. I posted numerous examples of this last week, some from 2016. My own choice to do so. It’s the street where the club sits. It’s our address and in our job, it helps to have numerous ways to reference to the club and stadium etc.

Focus is more on us as sales prove that away fans barely buy a copy.

Genuinely, if folk don’t like the name etc, that’s fine. But there is no ulterior or dark motive. When have I lied to anyone on here?

I’m out for a beer celebrating our win on Grove St today, so I’ll leave it there. Please buy Grove St. I need my job.

 

I'll buy the programme but I'm not buying the whole street.

I don't see anything wrong with the name myself, I'm sure the programme has had about 5 different names while I've been watching us. I just wondered whether that was the kind of change you could just make or if you'd need the big boss to make that call.

And as I said to someone else I haven't noticed the grove Street thing really, I get why you do it though. It's like if you're writing an article about Woodrow, you might call him Cauley, Woodrow, our number 9, the striker etc just to mix things up.

 

It's a great name for the matchday programme, I like it.

Just as much as I like to call the stadium Oakwell.

 

£3 for Grove Street. Bargain if you ask me.

 

If you know, you know

 

Ultimatum? Ah, you must mean the last bit. Looking at it again I can see why you might have read it like that, but that wasn't my intention.
I don't give ultimatums to people I don't know, certainly not on social media, I'm not a confrontational guy or keyboard warrior. The whole post was just a statement of fact pure and simple, but I grant you it was clumsily worded. Apologies for that.

 

you won’t actually own it though.

 

Could it be that we can have a stadium name sponsor.
Can’t really have one if we continue to use Oakwell.

 

I did feel as though I was doubting YTs word which I wasn’t as I hadn't seen that post .
Anyway his marketing has done its job it’s got us all talking .

 

Dunno how you'd know not many away fans buy the programme. At away games buying a programme outside I have never been asked if I am an away fan.

 

What's up with calling it Oakwell Review like when I was a nipper Grove Street was the name of the School Oakwell is the football ground bloody folk from Bradford changing the name of the programme to justify their enormous salary .

 

Be a seller as well outside away end I would imagine
