I know this site is on a permanent graveyard shift these days, but I have just read about the big Sports Direct deal.
It is the biggest commercial deal in the clubs history, and I am genuinely thrilled about that, and it's great news for the club going forward.
I have got a problem however with the stadium being renamed Sports Direct.com Park. It's Boundary Park and has been for over 100 years. Renaming it like this is just about someone else's ego to me, like that bloke who changed Cardiff's colours from blue to red, just because he could. However, no one is going to call it Sports Direct.com Park anyway, it sounds stupid. It will always be BP. You can't just change it's - it is what it is.
Any thoughts anyone?
