Either "Wembley Stadium in association with EE," "Wembley Stadium supported by EE" or another similar construction. :roll:

Not a big deal to me. The FA Cup is actually called 'the FA Cup sponsored by Budweiser' but everyone still calls it the FA Cup.

And? This thread was about Wembley, modern football and the sponsorships on EVERYTHING, it's not a petty argument over which stadium is best

Jesus, most were referring to renaming wembley as a bad thing for football. Then up pops some dick that wants to compare stadiums. Get that chip off your shoulder prick and realise that people were actually being respectful. Or alternatively just f**k right off.(with respect).

Andy since76. No need to resort to name calling.. Grow up and listen to what i have to say. I was replying to a comment about F.A being desperate to repay debt on stadium. My reply was to state that as a venue wembley is already being used in other ways to pay off debt and would be aghast if the powers that be decided to sponsor what is the most famous name in football stadia in the world.
I was not comparing which was best as i actually think the millenium has a better atmosphere than wembley. As for chip on shoulder are you welsh not the most balanced people on earth as you have ;) one on each shoulder

These two quotes show that you WERE comparing stadia, which wasn't the aim of the thread.

When there was no need to. We all know how great Wembley is, which is why it's a travesty that it my be renamed.

You're right though no need for it. If you come in with offensive remarks though, you leave yourself open! :ayatollah:

So basically, it will still be called "wembley stadium" then.

Personally I think it should be called 'Ninian Park 2' or 'Ninian Park of the east ;) ' :ayatollah:
