AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 We don't know it's 'just another Stack' though, do we. It's a fanzone in the style of Stack, done with the Stack people are presumably the club and Sela. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellis80 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 That stack are involved at all when Sela are a company that are supposed to do things exactly like this, and big enough to sponsor a Premier League club shirt, suggests to me they might not be a proper company at all.

Stack is tried and tested, it makes complete business sense to utilise them. what were you expecting like? Sela to fly over a bunch of Saudis to run it all? I'm not sure they'd quite understand our culture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve got a bit of land and have people who did something similar in the city before. Was no reason for them to ever mention Sela being involved.

Was no reason for them to ever mention Sela being involved. they're probably funding a lot of it for brand exposure. I bet their logo will be all over it, and they have to do zero of the work involved. everybody wins really! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 (edited) I don't get the problem, Stack know about making temporary experiences in toon and Sela know about sports experiences and marketing.

Bellis80 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 It’s not a problem, I just thought a company that can do massive projects in Saudi Arabia could arrange to get some shipping containers arranged on a car park in Newcastle themselves if they were involved.

Why though when there's a tried, tested, well established brand that people are already aware of that they can engage with for a temporary setup. The brand is so well established that just saying 'Stack' people know exactly what it is. Why not utilise that? Sela's job is to oversee the event and experience not to actually physically create it.

Bellis80 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 The club are a bigger brand. Just use that and you have a company already on board that could create it. The Stack in town was good. If they said we’re letting them have that car park until we’re ready to do something with it i’d understand it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that's entirely my point: hope it's nice for the people that end up going there, but can't for a second see the point when you've pretty much the entire city centre right there.
