Some iffy name for football stadiums around

I see some reports are say Cardiff City are playing at the Walkers Stadium, but it is no longer the Walkers has a new sponsorship deal has seen it become The King Power Stadium. Not to bad compare to some out there like those listed below. Newcastle fans are outraged over the St. James’ Park consigned to history officially and henceforth be known as the Sports Direct Stadium.

No matter how many name changes to a stadium to Newcastle fans it will always be St James’ Park. I feel the same about the Cardiff City Stadium, when we moved from Ninian Park to the new Stadium I was hell bent on calling it Ninain Park even if the board sold the rights to the Spam company and called it the Spam Stadium or something. I would still call it  'Ninian Park’, but I like the name Cardiff City Stadium so that is what it will be until the day I die.

Sponsorship of football can turn up some right duff names with Major League soccer in the USA having their fair share,

• Dick's Sporting Goods Park - Colorado Rapids - Colorado, USA (capacity 18,086)
• Pizza Hut Park - FC Dallas - Frisco, Texas, USA (capacity 21,193)
• The Home Depot - LA Galaxy - LA, USA (capacity 27,000)
• Dairy Farmers Stadium - North Queensland Fury FC - Townsville Australia (capacity 25,000)
• Hunky Dorys Park - Drogheda United - Drogheda, Republic of Ireland (capacity 2,000)
• Cash Point Arena - SCR Rheindorf Altach – Altach, Austria (capacity 8,900)
• Mitsubishi Forklift Stadion – Almere – Nederland’s (capacity 3,000)

Very embressing for the home fans, but if some company wants to splash the cash on the naming rights of the Cardiff City Stadium, I don’t care as long as the club makes a good wedge of cash on the deal.
