Re: New Stand name

As I said on Hibs.net it should be called the Canon Hannon Stand, because without him there would be no Hibernian FC

You would have thought so but doesn't Hibs stadium have quite a geographical problem when it comes to naming the stands.

Isn't the South Stand pointing to the East.

This was further complicated from the days of the old crumbling main stand wherby this had a North Stand and a South stand which also faced West and East.

Is that a line from the Who song "Substitute" ?? ... Ah.. not quite..

I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth
The north side of my town faced east, and the east was facing south
And now you dare to look me in the eye
Those crocodile tears are what you cry
It's a genuine problem, you won't try
To work it out at all you just pass it by, pass it by

Re: New Stand name

The stands are pointing roughly in the right directions. The West should really be called the "Main Stand", and the South could be renamed the "Dunbar End" or "Dunbar Stand". I have a feeling that BigManAndy might like a suggestion the East is renamed the "Ye Cannae Sit, Stand!!". Or maybe not......

The suggestion to name it the "Canon Hannon Stand" may be historically accurate, but it would do nothing to contradict the impression some hold that we are younger siblings of one half of the bigot boys. Coupled with few of our fans knowing what it means, I feel it would be a very inappropriate choice.

I disagree with this, surely naming the Stand after the Founder of the Club can't be misconstrued as sectarian or bigoted in any way (we're not embarassed by our history are we?)and it would actually teach fans about the History of the Club as it would get youngsters asking questions or googling like mad to find out about the name.

Re: New Stand name

This reminds me of when Manchester City help a vote to decide what to call their new stand behind the home goals. This online poll was sabotaged by Man Utd fans who were all voting for Man City legend Colin Bell so that the home fans would all be sitting in the Bell End!!!

Why don't we call our new one the "I Drink So Much Whenever We Gub The Yams That I Cannae Stand"?
