Newcastle rename stadium

Whilst it's not uncommon these days to have a football stadium name linked with big brand sponsorship, it's usually associated with a new ground rather than one that is 117 years old, but yesterday Mike Ashley angered the Toon army even further by renaming Newcastle's stadium to sportsdirect.com@StJames' Park.

Whilst PTG teams might not have to worry about playing home or away or on a physical piece of grass, it did get us wondering what PTG managers would like to call their hypothetical stadium and any appropriate sponsors they would link up with.

Just for a bit of fun, let us know your team name, what you would call your stadium (including a sponsor if you want) and any reasons for the choice, but please keep it clean!
