CanadianBacon 2,088 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Given the perilous state the former custodian got the club into (selling it for £1 tells its own story) should the training complex/football academy be renamed? 'The Zoolander Training Centre For Kids Who Can't Train Good' as an example? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.Linton 107 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I was thinking about this when he left, I think it maybe should, to something that won't be changed again when a new owner comes in like a legends names or the area or something.Not just Whyte park and when someone else comes in there name.So yeah it should be changed IMO.

caseyjones 3,009 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 No. Leave it as it is, even though it should never have been given that title in the first place. Changing it now would serve no purpose and would be churlish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBagalag 721 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 It was under David Murrays stewardship that the place was funded and constructed so see no reason to change the name, however I feel at the time it was built it should have been upto the fans to decide on the name. 'The Davie Cooper Academy of Football' is one suggestion that I feel is more fitting than it's current title. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guardian 4,281 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 The Sir Walter Smith Memorial Footballing Academy springs to mind but it's hardly appropriate given his lack of fielding young players.Now I think about it, I'm coming round to the idea of sponsoring the academy.We could get a brewery, someone like Carling. yeah that's it the Carling Acad.....Oh wait.Maybe after our new owner - The Whyte House Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His stewardship took us to the brink - I see no reason why we should continue to honour his name......in fact, the support should have been given the opportunity to name it at the time, not a group of self-serving fellow Board members who were, to a man, trying to keep in the vineyard-lovers good books.
