Colin Slater Intro

I'm aware of that, but it's not in the same league as having a stand. It's a pathetic tribute for what he brought to the club.

Yes it is, but we're out of stands for a tribute, I think they keep the Kop as a sponsored one

I suppose you could have "Boots Tommy Lawton Kop" for example or "The Tommy Lawton Kop Sponsored by Boots" but if somebody started a campaign to get it named after Lawton now, I don't think there would be enough people old enough to remember him or who care about his legacy to get behind it. For most people, they want to see players or managers from their own era being honoured.

Does anybody know what year Lawton's bar was opened? or what year it became known as that.
