Any ideas why DC has never considered (or maybe he has) a sponsor name for Hillsborough. Not asking for him to do it btw, but after what we’ve been through with fair play etc.

I think that would go down in much the same way Ashley trying to rename St James Park as the Sports Direct Arena. 

At the moment DC is riding a wave of positivity across the majority of our fan base. Can't imagine what the meltdown would be if he tried renaming Hillsborough. Even if it meant a seven figure sum coming in. 

Places like the Bolton, Rotherham, Huddersfield, etc are soulless and history-less so can interchange their names to AES Seal stadium, John Smith's, Tough Sheet and so on and their fans don't bat an eye lid

At one point there was talk of him asking  too much for it and no one was willing to go there. Same with shirt sponsorships, and various other commercial activities. How true that was I don’t know. 
But, whatever has happened since is a breath of fresh air and it’s nice to not have a club embroiled in politics and fan/club ‘in fighting’ anymore.
