Proposed move

edit

I would like to suggest moving the title of this article to simply Titwood, as the Citylets part of the name is merely a sponsor's label applied to the ground on an infrequent basis — it applies to Scotland matches on the ground only. Such a move would bring this article in to line with other venues, such as The Grange and Ayr which are in fact part of the same sponsorship deal with Citylets. In fact, I would also point to The Oval for a cricketing precedent where the article name ignores the sponsor's names being tacked on.

Speaking more generally, while sponsored names will rightly be used for new sporting venues with no other official title, such as the Emirates Stadium , or possibly when a traditional name has been replaced rather than added to (SWALEC Stadium or the excruciating KitKat Crescent!), in this sort of instance I think it would be preferable to stick with more recognisable, traditional names. Thoughts?? Jellyman (talk) 14:57, 17 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
