Stadium Naming Rights

I know it's been opposed in the past, but does anyone have any real issues if the stadium becomes sponsored.

 

Surely a few more pennies in the pot outweighs anything else in these times.

Presumably this has already been looked into anyway by those in charge.

A good idea but what kind of pleb will hand over money just to see a big circle of plastic and bricks named after their business?

Trouble is, once the stadium is open, the clubs lose a huge amount of money as for example, everyone will know it as SMS no matter who sponsors it so they wont get value for money.

 

Somewhere like the emirates is known as that throughout football and the sponsors get a huge exposure and will pay for that.

The computer company?

To be honest, I'm surprised the marketing gurus at SMS didn't think about that one before....

 

Back in the year 2000, I suggested to Rupert Lowe that if he could get Dell Computers to sponsor the stadium, then we could continue to call our home "The Dell". He advised me that the Club had already thought of that and Dell Computers were not interested!
