New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[Paul E]

Other than irnwin Mitchell, I don't think there's a bigger UK law firm.

Why does it need to be a law firm mate? There are literally thousands of other ethical businesses out their with much bigger names

Reach is important with sponsors. Particularly when it is mentioned on every TV channel of a match day.

Emirates
Etihad
American Express
Gtech

Even the worst one (before ours) - King Power. They have a turnover of £750m and push the Leicester name in Thailand.

That's the problem with it, it seems like a small time deal regardless of the finances involved. Its the type of name a league 1 or 2 stadium would have.

We get a naming rights deal that is one of the 10 biggest in the world(with a local firm) and people are already moaning because they dont like the company name, unlike all the apparently catchy options out there I havent heard of.

You can call the stadium whatever you want, who cares? The only thing that matters is maximum money in to help the squad.

Pretty dreadful name, but lash the cash in the bank, and we’ll just call it Bramley Moore

Such a weird weird choice.

Defo a fiddle being played

One of the ten biggest? Where you getting that information?

i don’t see us!

Obviously needs updating mate

ME!!! Probably could have extracted another £100m from a Middle Eastern company like that...

Everton being Everton sell out again, proper out of the BK playbook this.... but they are local...

F being local, IF this club is ambitious we need to attract better sponsors than that... My guess is TFG are letting it run themselves while they focus solely on Roma as most predicted.

Shame because even I thought TFG might take us places but now I can see we are signing all the old guard up, signing Harrison permanently. Condference League at best for a decade or more.

“while they focus solely on Roma as most predicted”

Most??? You mean Davek?

 

[Papa Shango]

Erm because they don’t actually turn over anything like we hoped the company getting naming rights to our incredible new stadium were going to

Why does it matter what they are turning over?

What they are turning over to us is the most important part.

Maybe that's the best deal we could get?

Well i guess millions of people (myself included) who had never heard of them an hour ago now have. So I guess these things work. In a way it makes more sense than a major brand everyone has heard of anyway. At the same time, how many of their new audience are in immediate need of commercial legal advice?

 

[TheKr0w]

10 a year is being reported isn’t it?

Up to. They've probably looked at the top deals and the quote of one of the largest and had a guess, don't think anyone knows.

Still, free money isn't it. If it helps towards players and a team challenging at the top half of the table then who gives a bollocks.

One of the ten biggest? Where you getting that information?

It's actually in the top 5 if some of the journos are accurate with the figure..

Every site that mentions stadium naming deals. If the purported 10m by Andy Hunter and others is accurate
