New Everton Stadium

[radiostar]

I'm 'kin furious with these turds.

It looks like we brought Kinnear in to keep the Elstone, Wyness level of idiocy and incompetence going.

It's humiliating, to be honest.

 

[BlueStevie35]

The name is an utter embarrassment.

The School of Science
Saint Domingo’s
Goodison Park
The grand old lady
The holy trinity
St Luke’s, the church of football

………..The Hill Dickinson stadium

It’s an absolute outrage.

It’s nowhere near an outrage, Jesus, you and Dave really need to take a step back from the overreacting for the sake of being contrary

It's humiliating, to be honest.

When has humiliation put off the dedicated Evertonian?

 

[blulouie]

If we have to put up with this humiliation for 10 years it should be a straight £10M p.a. than the £3M + add ons it will be.

There is nothing to suggest it's anything near £3mil pa , that would be silly that you've just advertised it as around £10 mil.
So for £10 mil that would put us 3rd or 4th best paid sponsorship in Europe.
Is that acceptable to you ?

Does that sound feasible for a club that languishes in the bottom half of the league avoiding relegation narrowly and not won a jot for 30 years.

So which is it David ?

 

[kev]

It is like when shirt sponsorship first came out.

The likes of Hitachi and Sharp were sponsoring teams.

We wound up with “Hafnia”, a company none of us had ever heard off.

But we do know who they are now . . . and that's the whole point of sponsorship. It's basically just advertising.
Some of the names being speculated about by posters on here were pure pie in the sky. Toyota and Qatar Airways et al are already better known globally than Everton, so why the Hell would they pay us Millions of pounds for sponsorship?

Ild ask you to look at the figures we can bandy about, then Ild ask you to look at the nature of the business that's supposedly paying the naming rights.

They look likely to you?

 

[Fonzy]

And you think Spurs are holding out for the legal world's Farm Foods?

Well i don’t see spurs getting 10 million a season do you?

So according to some it's dropped from £10m down to £3m, I swear by morning, we will have paid them to advertise their name, never change Dave, never change.

Agree but my guess is TFG have inherited a bad list of options from the people cosplaying as a commercial team.

They haven't had time to get some competent people in place and gone with the least worst option.

 

[COYBL25]

Not sure how this type of advertising works for a law firm?

It’s called “ Brand Awareness “

Maximum exposure for the name of the firm and if the team does well it potentially rubs off on them with regards to business too.

 

[pfim]

the thing is with the Amex and the Etihad is that the name rolls off so easily you forget about the brand, it sounds like a place, it sounds like a stadium. I had no idea the Veltins of the Veltins Arena was a brand until I saw the naming rights list today. i just thought it was called the Veltins. Same with BayArena and Signul Iduna park

The Hill Dickinson sounds like the btec version of the Penny Farthing

it sounds proper naff

All because it’s familiar to you.

They have a turnover of about 53 million a year.

No way they are putting £ 10 mill every year.

Not sure how this type of advertising works for a law firm?

Where there is blame...

 

[Fonzy]

Thought journalists have reported its 10mil where you getting your information from?

Guardian and phil mcnulty said 10 million

Dave says 3…so dave obviously right

I think you underestimate the pop cultural potency of canned jellied veal and pickled ox tongue.
