Herbert Ellis

[Chico Hamilton III]

If we're thinking about renaming a stand because it carries the name of a lunatic then shouldn't we start with the Holte? Change it back to The Great Hall end.

They could fudge it of course.  The Witton Stand could be divided into  five or six blocks.  The Joe Bache 20%  the Harry Hampton 20% the Paul McGrath 20% the Peter McParland 19% the Herbert Ellis 1% (restricted view).

Maybe the Herbert Block could be the away end.

[brian green]

Yes that would fit nicely with it being the bit homed in on by the Luftwaffe.

Just swap the names around, rename the North Stand as the Doug Ellis Stand....in time it will be knocked down and a new stand with new name can be built

[cdbearsfan]

Could only be named after McGregor, Ramsay or, if we are going for a more modern name, Saunders.

As we already have a McGregor statue I'd rename WLS after Ramsay and the North Stand after Saunders.

Me and my mate have always called that stand `The Charlie Aitken Stand` since it was built.
we told Charlie once & he couldn`t stop chuckling

[Rudy Can't Fail]

I'm not Saunders would be happy having his name on a stand built by the Bendalls.

[CT Villan]

the Herbert Ellis 1% (restricted view).

and the view should be restricted because of the white porcelain and cubicles.

Nothing much wrong with Sir Thomas Holte. OK there are accusations that he split his cooks head in two with a meat cleaver. Also it's believed that one of his daughters starved to death when he locked her up because he didn't approve of who she wanted to marry.  Otherwise a jolly decent chap.

[London Villan]

Saunders, it would be great to honour him and for him to see it.

[Tony Erdington]

Saunders, it would be great to honour him and for him to see it.

Totally agree, but equally by the same token, id like the stands name changed whilst "erbert" still has breath in his lungs.

I'd prefer to think the Holte End was named after the Holte Brewery.

[Sexual Ealing]

I see no reason why the whole ground should't be renamed in Dave O'Leary's honour. We could change our nickname to The Sugarbags.

[brian green]

Or Michael O'Leary and call ourselves The Packers.
