Is it true (word on the street?) that the owners of Nottingham Forest are considering a name change to the stadium?
Sacrilege?
Blasphemy?
Moving with the times?
Anything to raise cash?
We like daft stadium names?
Discuss.
Do you want it to happen and if so? What do you call it?
SA.

It has to be City Ground, the only change acceptable would be "World Famous City Ground"

Has been mooted as part of the development- does it matter? It will always be the city ground to me anyway…

I could perhaps understand it if we were having a new stadium but we are just developing one of the current stands so it will still be the City Ground.

I blame Dane
It will be the McDonalds Soccer Stadium, home of the Nottingham Robin Hoods Franchise. The game will be divided into quarters giving us more time to buy hot dogs at the intervals. No entry without a foam finger.

Whilst don't want a name change in the slightest, I voted for Tarantula's laying eggs in my eyes, I would accept "The Brian Clough Stadium" as it both embraces our heritage and makes sense from a marketing perspective too.
Can't help feel that going to the "Brain Clough Stadium" does make the venue even more iconic.
