Jack27 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Whatever your opinion, great to see the club want to meet fans before making any contentious decisions. Makes for a bloody delightful change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 30 minutes ago, Unbelievable said: 25m a year is roughly a 25% increase of our income, is it not? We can’t expect the owners to keep shelling out their personal wealth to subsidise out rise up the pyramid. FFP won’t even allow them to even if they were willing to. Yep. And that's just one revenue stream, easy for us to dismiss £25m/year, but I would imagine funding a club this size to the tune of competing for CL football will mean we'll need lots of these type of deals. In isolation they might not look that much, but when NUFC's income on an ongoing basis will be made up of lots of such revenue streams, PIF are an investment organisation at the end of the day, the club will have to be self-sustaining. I'm not saying I want to do this btw, but if we want to compete at the top level then we have to consider it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 If we want to move forward it's something we'll have to get used too otherwise we're going to be stuck roughly where we are forever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fine with new grounds being renamed, but Chelsea, Man Utd, Everton, Liverpool, Spurs (and yet still) have all managed to spend and compete without renaming their grounds which theyve been playing at more or less for their entire existence. Some have just spent the money they've made better than others. It’s not though, for example if it was £30 million a season, and we signed 5 x £30 million players on 5 year contracts, only £30 million would count per year due to amortisation - so its a bit more than a Joe Willock Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowlingcrofty Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 I can live with the stadium sponsorship under these owners as I know it’ll be invested in the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarralad Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Ashley went about it the wrong way, it was all for his own personal gain. Whilst I love the name of our stadium I'll back them if they want to do this considering what they have already given us and what the future holds with them in charge.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) Wembley's actually now known as "Wembley Stadium connected by EE", but no fucker calls it that. "Powered by" is still rather shit but it's far better than Ashley's renaming. Edited October 12, 2022 by WarrenBartonCentrePartin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 It is better and it's not like I'd boycott over it but it would be a bit garish and sad and is prefer if they tried everything else first rather than treating stadium name as easy money maker. Not that there's any sign of them acting that way kind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we were to get a lucrative shirt sponsorship deal that'd be enough. People go on about renaming the stadium as if its inevitable when no club in the league with the exception of Bournemouth has ever renamed their original, existing ground. A partner a la Wembley and EE as above, yeah fine. Changing the ground's name? Fuck that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Unsurprisingly I'm against it. It would take a lot more than what the club's likely to get to make it tempting. 'Powered by...' is shit but better than what Ashley did. 'Sponsored by...' would be a lot better because it still separates the sponsorship from the name, leaving it feeling less tainted.

Wolfcastle Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) Not sure as lost interest, the will to live and the will for the club to live, but isn't it only called SJP now technically because Fun88 chose to call it that, from the SD Arena, as part of the naming rights they got with the sponsorship? I presume that deal is still in place. Did we get token sponsorship for the Gallowgate becoming the Exhibition Stand?. Sponsor the stands is maybe something to explore because who ever called it the Sir John Hall or Exhibition Stand really?
