According to the recent Cheshire Live articles, two contradictory pieces of information refer to the Stadium being called The 1885 Arena, whilst stating that Stuart Murphy has severed all ties with the Club.

Until the Sponsorship runs out, I’m guessing it will be called that until the start of next season when a new sponsor will be found.

Was a stupid name anyway that meant nothing. Officially it will have to remain for now I suppose, but it's the Deva to me.

I suppose it may depend upon whether he has paid the cash ?

Anyone actually ever called it anything other than the Deva? I know I haven’t.

It's crap really. I used to be able to tell you every team's ground name. Now I'll be watching Final Score and they'll say something like "over to the Bank of Azerbaijan Stadium" and I'll have no idea where they're going. |

Weren’t we originally formed in 1884 anyway? When did it change to 1885?

Couldn’t tell you from one year to the next what the ground has been called. It has always been and will always be the Deva Stadium to me.

The stadium is long gone of course but every time I look at the street sign it takes me back to better times |
