Geema
I genuinely think this is a great idea. |

Both Cobblers to play for England born in the County.
Silly suggestion…. The Dave Cadden First Aid room.
It’s where you’ll go for a plaster 🤣
Coincidence their initials spell PINT? |

Whilst we are on this, it would be a good opportunity to re-dedicate the North Stand the Bowen Stand?
It's a name that has never stuck, and that is a shame.
One of the reasons for me was the use of first name and surname, just made it a bit cumbersome
Bowen Stand in my opinion would have sounded better from the outset.
Chard Suite, Fowler Suite, Kiernan Suite, all have a decent ring to them.

We should also have a Bitter Suite. A kind of nod to the current (bitter) and founder “suite (sic) sweet” members all wrapped up in a play on words LOL

I think we have been promoted 10 times, so could use the promotion years as names.
|
Let me make one thing absolutely clear, the Trust “advisor” is not god. Are you going to tell him or shall I?

I'm not sure about that. Shouting about the times we got out of the basement division does not show much ambition, and there's always the chance some bright spark would decide to put the corresponding relegation year on the reverse. |

This has got me thinking. We could have Joe Mercers quote placed above the entrance to the new East. Depending upon your view of the stand there might be a sense of appropriateness to it  |

And I'm sure everyone across the spectrum, from Beds to Melbourne, would approve of the sentence 'Big city lights don't bother me' being inscribed on the cladding, pitchside.  |

Dunno about that mate, the successive promotions in the 60s was a massive achievement. |

Is it too early to suggest Jon Brady, he's been at the club for a long time, stepped up as interim manager when required and has done incredibly well with the resources offered him. He's also been instrumental in pulling the team and fans together.
I like Worthless' idea of Big City Lights Don't Bother Me being somewhere on the stand.

May I suggest naming them 1 to 10?
Also as it looks like the glazed screens have been removed from outside cladding, removing natural light, the concourse could be named the Dark place'..
