Sponsor names for stadium are avoided where possible, as these can change and become out of date.

I would agree if something like this was time consuming to change.

The stadium sponsorship is in the game so why not stadium name? Takes longer to add in the sponsorship. Has it not been called Jackman's since 19/20 season?

When the stadium build was announced and confirmed, Jakeman's were not confirmed as title sponsors (although they did still have the naming rights for York Street, as The Jakemans Stadium). It came later, and have been the named sponsor since the first match. I guess it's similar to Arsenal, where it was originally in the database as Ashburton Grove before Emirates stepped in.

I just follow guidelines we've used for a while, and it's never come up before - thoughts @Gingerbread Man? In the meantime, you can use the editor on the PC version to rename it if you wish.

It's an interesting one really, I've always gone with the same guidelines and used the traditional name, but I can certainly see an argument for changing it, with the stadium only a few years old and the name has been there since inception, the name is now synonymous with the stadium.

Deva Stadium is the Leap 76 stadium for this season, but I wouldn't have suggested we change that as it is only a season long deal.

In this instance I'd lean towards changing it.

The club sometimes uses Pilgrim Way as an alternative too, as that is the road that the stadium is on. It's something a few fans tried to make the colloquial name, but alot just say "The JCS" now!

No problem, we can get it changed at the next opportunity 👍
