The Sun, Daily Mail, The Mirror, MEN, Telegraph, Observer, Guardian all call it Eastlands.
Away fans call it Eastlands.
Mark Hughes calls it Eastlands.
The players call it Eastlands.
Sky call it Eastlands.
ESPN call it Eastlands.
BBC call it Eastlands.
Haha... It is settled then!

Yes, I think the argument for 'EASTLANDS' has been won. Even Ian Cheeseman has used the name on BBC GMR in recent broadcast and he is a staunch 'City of Manchester Stadium' fan. See my recent site update due to Mark Hughes departure

Of course we all want it to remain COMS/Eastlands, [and forgive my ignorance if this has been mentioned earlier in the thread as I've only had a quick glance], but if it come to the point where Platini and his Co-Cunts decide upon the rule of 'spending within means' then I wouldn't have a problem if we were renamed 'Etihad Eastlands Stadium' or something along the like, and we met the criteria for Champions League eligibility.

I like this too. Gives the club a real 'Fans' Feel', and sounds like a stadium name in a way. Upton Park is the only other ground I can think of with an unofficial name that's stuck. Any others? I know Swansea fans were calling their ground 'White Rock', but this got dropped due to the effects of copper poisoning on the local populace.
