SuperSheep Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I'm just wandering if there is any truth in this or its just the usual $&%#. but, on twitter (yes I know, what am I doing on twitter) I saw an account who was giving an overview of all the questions that were asked and the answers of the Sam rush interveiw. I didn't believe any of it till he tweeted about the 3 at the back formation before anyone like Nicholson tweeted about it. And one of the tweets was : @dcfc_news On naming rights of pride park, rush said that he is looking to sell the naming rights of pride park to build a partnership with partners. It probably is just rubbish but if anyone has access to the interview, could they check if theirs any truth in this. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodleyRam Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 'pride park' as a name means diddley squat to me. If we can get some money by whoring ourselves out to McLloydsco then so be it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about the baseball ground? It's heritage and should remain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuff264 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I like the name Pride Park, but I wouldnt be totally against it being renamed as long as it wasnt a terrible sponsor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whoneedshuls Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Is there any baseball teams willing to sponser us with the American connection so we can call it... The baseball ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Pride Park Stadium as a name has grown on me, but it has no emotional pull really. Not like the Baseball Ground. I would have no problem with the stadium being re-named (usual proviso - money to fund players etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCFCfranco Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 if we sell the naming rights i'd like it to have some sort of connection to derby, like the Rolls-Royce Arena or Bombardier stadium. if its some crappy american business that sells pencil sharpeners then they can fook off.

Cisse Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I have liked the name Pride Park from the day one. Derby has a lot of history to be proud of. And I like the stadium too. If we sell the right which will happen sooner or later everywhere, I will still think our stadium as a Pride Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mafiabob Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Totally for this. Widespread across other European leagues etc Remember there is already sponsored stands at most grounds, may as well sponsor the stadium, fans are going to refer to it still as Pride Park, sponsor away!

PrivateDerby Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Actually I can't say how against it I am. It's disgraceful and f*cks with football. AMF. #AMF whatever that means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
