The Toughsheet Community Stadium name has prompted amusement and disbelief in equal measure.
Bolton Wanderers stadium's new "tongue in cheek" name has been a hard one for fans to ignore, prompting chuckles and disbelief in equal measure.they are delighted to have agreed a deal with local building manufacturer Toughsheet.
It means the League One side will be playing at the Toughsheet Community Stadium for the next five years.Managing director Doug Mercer: "We're happy to have a bit of fun with it. Obviously the brand name is a bit tongue-in-cheek, a bit schoolboy humour.'Seriously?' Bolton said the partnership with the company, based in Westhoughton, represents the largest sponsorship deal in the club's history.
But news of the ground's latest moniker has been a hard one to take for some supporters, after less remarkable spells as the Reebok and most recently the University of Bolton Stadium.Another tweeted: "Oh Bolton. Bolton. Bolton. What have you done? You've certainly got people talking. However, it'll always be the Reebok."
However, many simply took the opportunity to embrace the joke, with one fan adding: "If people don't like it, it's toughsheet."
