It seems architects are unable to join corners when designing football stadiums nowadays.

From today's Guardian. http://www.theguardian.com/environment/shortcuts/2016/mar/21/from-bell-end-boaty-mcboatface-trouble-letting-public-name-things The Trouble with letting the public name things. Never trust the public. Just look at the governments they elect. The clamour to name the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC)’s new polar research vessel Boaty McBoatface in an online poll has been so great the website has sunk with all hands. When last seen, it was ahead of the second-most-popular name, Henry Worsley, by several leagues – and increasing its lead at a rate of knots. There are two standard responses to this collective silliness: delight at the British people’s Pythonesque mocking of authority; and despair at our refusal to take anything seriously. In truth, social media’s in-built anarchism means it is now almost impossible to hold any sort of online vote without it hitting an internet iceberg. In 2012, soft drinks brand Mountain Dew organised an online poll to name a new apple-flavoured drink. The message board 4chan hijacked the poll, and, at the time the “Dub the Dew” campaign was abandoned, “Hitler did nothing wrong” was leading. Similar online votes elected to send Taylor Swift to play a charity concert at a school for the deaf and Justin Bieber to tour North Korea – both declined. There is also the salutary warning of Manchester City’s online poll in 2003 to name a stand at its new ground after one of the club’s legends. Colin Bell, seen by many as the greatest player in City’s history, won the vote, but the club plumped for former manager Joe Mercer instead to avoid the stand being dubbed the Bell End. The club blamed Manchester United fans for disrupting the poll, but Bell and his supporters were furious. City were forced into another U-turn and the Colin Bell stand was born – at the side of the ground, rather than the end. Involving the public in naming decisions is a recipe for disaster – unless, of course, it is a PR double-bluff and the intention is to maximise publicity. The NERC says the names it receives are suggestions, and that it reserves the right to have the final say. Boaty McBoatface may yet end up as Scott of the Antarctic. This is essentially what happened when an online poll to determine the name of a new wing on the international space station was won by US comedian Stephen Colbert, admittedly after a campaign conducted on his TV show. (Colbert had form for this kind of thing.) Nasa rejected the poll – an affront to democracy, according to one congressman, who said the people’s will should be respected just as much in space as on earth – and called it Tranquility instead. They did, though, name a treadmill in the new wing after the comedian, saying Colbert stood for combined operational load-bearing external resistance treadmill. Maybe the bridge on the new polar research ship could be called Boaty McBoatface. Just an idea. |

^^^ When Leicester moved from Filbert St , the new stadium was to be the Walkers Bowl re the crisps & sponsors. The fans were outraged and demanded the name was changed (to include something Leicester - Foxes, Fosse, Filbert etc) They released a statement saying they were taking on board the fans concerns and instead it was to be called instead the "Walkers Stadium" PS When the renamed it again, I thought for quite some time that it was called the King Prawn Stadium -even heard it as that every time it was mentioned |

Good luck Jonas. Cancer-hit Premier League star frozen out because of deadly disease FOOTBALLER Jonas Gutierrez broke down in tears yesterday and blasted Newcastle for abandoning him after he was struck down by cancer. By Nadeem Badsha The Argentine ace told an employment tribunal he felt owner Mike Ashley put pressure on managers to drop him because they considered him a “liability”. Spoiler: click to toggle
