Meh. It is what it is, doesn’t particularly bother me. Anything has to be better than the DW Stadium though.

Same I’m over getting worked up about stuff like this.

I remember the uproar when it switched to DW stadium.

We’ll get used to it and it’ll be fine

I get it doesn't really matter to us anyway as it is not our stadium or our sponsor.

But out of the 2 options he puts in the twitter post, EPIC Arena rolls off the tongue much better then EPIC Stadium

i'm quite disappointed they were given a choice

i was hoping for Boatie McBoat Face mk2 and let the fans suggest the names

The Wigan Athletic we hate Wigan Warriors but we dont know why stadium

on a serious note, not bothered. We rent the stadium on match day, we pay rent for that. i still call it the JJB anyway, and probably will carry on doing so

New Central Park for me. Always will be. I don't care what anyone else calls it.

We all of us long ago gave up the joy of having time-honoured and instantly recognisable stadium names. Millennial fans will never know what locations like Central Park, Knowsley Road and the Boulevard actually meant. They were old sheds, but ancient and soaked in history and tradition.

It doesn't matter anymore. How could it with stupid names knocking around like The Mend-A-Hose Jungle and the Totally Wicked Stadium?

Our grandfathers would turn in their graves.

If Central Park had naming rights sold to a sponsor, we might not have needed to sell it

Absolutely. Ultimately we don’t own the stadium and never will
