Default Changing railstation names

Having wandered about Ashburton Grove, site of the new Arsenal FC ground,
it occured to me that there are three roughly equidistant rail stations.
I humbly suggest changing their names.
"Arsenal" on Plimsoll Road (Piccadilly) could become "Arsenal West"
"Drayton Park" could become "Arsenal Central" and
"Holloway Road" (Piccadilly) could become "Arsenal East".
If this can be arranged, I'd further like to suggest changing the LB
Islington's name to "London Borough of Arsenal". Would that be okay?


Why do we have to have any stations named after Arsenal? Some of us don't
care in the slightest about football.
