I have noticed a steady roll out of business-side jobs other the last 6 weeks or so. Would appear they’re trying to get everything moving ahead of the Adidas launch in the summer? 
 

Must be kinda nice having an almost blank slate to work from. I do wonder where they house all these staff mind, surely there isn’t enough office space at SJP?

Funny you should say that because Adidas actually used to have an office inside SJP when they had the deal with us and after our last extension.

In saying that, we keep on having MGM’s at Alnwick, so that leaves to question why when we have our own function rooms at SJP?

Saudi Arabia’s population of 37m people being forced to pay £5 a month for exclusive NUFC content = £185m a month :kasper:

 

Um, why isn’t this a thing?

I would guess because if they were forced to, that would amount to state intervention and funding of the club, when of course there are "legally binding assurances" that we are separate from the state.

 

There aren't really any obvious workarounds to the rules we're complying with, unless the whole basis of those rules are challenged. Which would be... problematic.

 

Not least as I can't really think what they'd be replaced with that both everyone would sign up to and would also stop the league just being dominated by other clubs than they are now, in a different sort of closed shop.

 

FWIW, I think employing the best back office teams around, with owners willing to invest in that way in order to be able to challenge properly longer term is probably still our best strategy. As frustrating as it is right now.

Am I right to assume we don’t have a sponsor for our training gear? Watched the Spurs match last night and even the bibs the subs were wearing had a sponsor (Some Turkish delivery company that also sponsors the gear at the training ground)

I’d bet we will have next season.

Is this the hope, destroy your kit in the name of FFP

 

I think in the MX league, kits have separate sponsorship on the tops shorts and even socks!

I wouldn't be surprised if we announced one this season along with an all bells and whistles training ground. Sneaky way to push a few extra million in this year

An interesting but short article on how the Saudi’s are investing in the region, but a footnote of cautionary tale about Manchester, which I don’t think is particularly valid.

Where is the “disused office being converted into high-end apartments”?

Surprised we haven’t seen a Vision2030 or Aramco sponsor come in

That’s my hometown team. ? Absolutely hideous, but unfortunately a lot of Swedish teams look like that.

I said a few months ago two big screens(gallowgate and leaves sides of Milburn carpark) for x Saudi company and advertising st James park powered by.... Would be easy money. Don't even technically have to change the name

I'm actually fortunate enough own our 2010 third, blue and black, it's one of our great third kits.
