    Can it be true that local Estate Agents Gilbert and Rose have sponsored it ?
    Surely not !

    That is a terrible name for obvious reasons, but at least they haven’t closed their West Stand, moved on fans to other areas of the ground for a few weeks and had to give out refunds to rightfully aggrieved fans. Only to then open it back up a few weeks later with seemingly next to no improvements to the stand.

    Now that would be a tinpot thing to do, sounds familiar!

    They had to close the John West stand because it stunk of fish.

    I suppose it could have been worse had the Estate Agents been called Fred and Rose
