More sponsorship, which is the way it has to be, but why have all the stands and suites etc. got to be directly named after the sponsor? Why can't we have, say, The Moss & Randall Stand Sponsored by XYZ, The John Duncan Suite Sponsored by XYZ. I am only using those names as examples, but you get what I mean. Name the various stands, suites etc after Chesterfield heroes, not the sponsors directly. I know the sponsors want value for their money, but trying to pronounce some of the names will not be easy. They don't exactly roll off the tongue. Other clubs name stands and function rooms after past players and managers, so why not us?

Suspect it comes down to cash and you wouldnt get as much that way around.

The Brain Clough stand

We do not have anyone who even comes close to having the kind of stature with us that Brian Clough had with Forest.

Not even Ernie Moss, or John Duncan or Bruno,......BRUNO BRUNO

Bruno was a cult figure, and THAT GOAL will always be remembered, BUT not to the point where there are almost cannonised by the club as Cloughie has been by Forest (quite rightly so too)
