I'm not sure I like one of the Napoli tops. Our players don't have any problems hiding as it is so I don't think this one will help.

I think it's always appropriate to remind ourselves of this headline, with stadium names:

Bolton Boris.

Its a load of metal, bricks and seats. It isn't a living thing. Sentiment doesn't need to come into it. Ask Owen Coyle.
If the company in question was borderline immoral then yer lets kick up a fuss.
But to say I'd rather not have the cash as he'll just waste it is stupid.

What if the money is used to get rid of Dougie? Different story then is it?

Sad state of the times. Seems like most clubs are willing to forgo their century old traditions for supposedly more commercial gain. Take Hull Tigers for example. I know in this case it's a relatively new stadium anyway but it's a bit depressing innit. And in the end, does the mooted £400k figure make much difference? Rather have a name of the stadium that I'm not embarrassed of.

I'm not kicking up a fuss. I'm just giving a different slant to the "If you don't like it you're a thick cvnt" type comments.

I think some of our players will need XXXL tops to hide their waist line

On one hand, I'm happy we won't be using another overused template for next season (how hipster of me). On the other, I hope it isn't garbage like some of their kits have been in the past. That said, Napoli and Villa to name a couple have had nice Macron kits.

As a relatively new Bolton fan, the Reebok Stadium is all I've really known, so it's a shame for me to lose it, but I can understand Reebok is just a brand, as is Macron. Would be a different story if it were Burnden Park.

Clearly all part on the master plan, now we're playing at the Macronara Stadium, it'll be like watching Argentina next season. YHIHF.
