Sonny Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 I would rename it as Love Street however the BOD in their infinite wisdom (and no imagination) have called it St Mirren Park. At least we can call it the correct name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Urquhart Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 I would rename it as Love Street however the BOD in their infinite wisdom (and no imagination) have called it St Mirren Park. At least we can call it the correct name. Can't help but agree with this. Only we could dump one of the most iconic ground names in Scottish football. Maybe we could rename the wee lay-bye road entrance in front of the main stand as Love Street. Re-capture the name many still use, be good PR if nothing else and pay some tribute to the place we played football for over 100 years. Just a thought.

BuddieinEK Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Sorry to disappoint lads but our old ground was never called Love street... it was also St Mirren park... Indeed. And retaining that name was a wonderful move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shull Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 I would've called the new Stadium, Westmarch. No up to me though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 I am aware our old ground was called St Mirren Park but thousands of Buddies for over 100 years referred to the stadium as Love St. In homage to our history I would rename the stadium Love St. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 I hoped the new place would by now, be EasyJet Stadium, with four bright orange roofs, huge EasyJet logos, money in the bank for three new signings and discounted flights for season ticket holders. Get it sorted Henderson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickMcD Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Sorry to disappoint lads but our old ground was never called Love street... it was also St Mirren park... We all know that but everybody and their granny called it Love Street. I can remember when pub quizzes became popular 'What is St.Mirren FC's ground called?' was a real catch question. I don't think renaming the ground Love Street is impossible even if some find it dopey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester Saint Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Can't help but agree with this. Only we could dump one of the most iconic ground names in Scottish football. Maybe we could rename the wee lay-bye road entrance in front of the main stand as Love Street. Re-capture the name many still use, be good PR if nothing else and pay some tribute to the place we played football for over 100 years. Just a thought. Absolutely no reason why it couldn't have been called The Love Street Stadium.When Leicester City built their new stadium they named the road leading around the stadium for access 'Filbert Way' to keep a link with the past. Good idea. There's also City badges on the street sign. Another thing that would be pretty cool for us to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Saint Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 I've always thought it was called the shit-surrounded Grey Concrete Box... Those battleship grey walls are awful. Not homely in the slightest and nothing to lift the gloom of a cold, windswept day being battered by some ordinary/poor side as well as the wind.
