Southend United football club has come under fire after a sponsorship blunder meant their stadium had a 'Gilbert & Rose West Stand'.
Gilbert and Rose said they thought the stand would be named the G & R West Stand but insisted the name was up to the club.
The issue was raised at a meeting between fans and the club's leadership earlier in the week but there were no plans to change it due to the potential costs involved, according to the Telegraph.Southend fans have called out the faux pas online, questioning how the club let it get so far. Paul Napper tweeted: "Only Southend United could have a sponsor for the West Stand called Gilbert & Rose, inevitably leading to the Gilbert & Rose West Stand."A third person asked: "How could no one have noticed that was going to happen?"A local estate agent by the name of Gilbert and Rose have successfully won the naming rights of the West Stand.
