Re: Etihad Campus & potential new stadium

So ... the dippers are looking to expand anfield to 60k.....

Yet, us the champions have no immediate plans yet the demand is clearly there....

That would be because they need extra income but with us being champions of England (god I love that statement) we can gain a lot more extra income from the commercial side of the game

Am not sure of that..I believe their match day revenues are still way ahead of ours so the lack of champions league albeit is huge is surely outweighed by the fact they still pull big dollar on home matchdays (not to the tune of 30-40mill true)

I'm not sure but surely commercial revenue far outways match day revenue

Chevrolet: 'We'll build a car park for Manchester United fans'

marketingmagazine.co.uk, 27 June 2012 by Noelle McElhatton

Manchester United's new car sponsor, Chevrolet, is to build a car park at Old Trafford for fans of the club, the chief marketer of its parent General Motors told Marketing magazine.


Ewanick: wants to appreciate Man United fans
GM brand Chevrolet was unveiled as the 19-time English champions’ car sponsor, replacing Audi, at the end of May.

Joel Ewanick, GM’s chief marketing officer, said the brand owner was determined to 'appreciate the fans' and plans to build a car park next to Old Trafford ground. ‘This is our way of thanking fans for letting us be part of this,’ Ewanick said. 'We want to be a supporter, just like them.’

The company was given the option of a corporate box at Old Trafford but turned it down. ‘We’re giving the tickets back to the fans,’ Ewanick said.

Ewanick, talking to Marketing at the Cannes Lions Festival last week, added that Manchester United's failure to win the Premiership this year, or if it did not win next year, does not faze him.

It was more important for Chevrolet to be ‘associated with a team that has a chance and is always trying to win. We feel better about [Manchester United’s] heritage and their long-term prospects than just anybody we can think of’.

GM chose the club to help build its Chevrolet brand in Europe. In turn, Ewanick said, GM can help Manchester United gain a foothold in the US, ‘a market where they’re not so strong’.

Ewanick, who manages an $8bn global budget, attracted controversy when GM pulled its $10m paid advertising deal with Facebook, a story that published in the Wall Street Journal just days before the site's IPO.

Thankfully Etrihad are going to build us an airport. :-)

That will be General Motors who needed a US government bail out recently to the tune of billions of dollars.

The same General Motors who have lost half of their value in last 12 months and stock at an all-time low.

Outside of the US, General Motors is an irrelevance, can't even compete with Japanese in their own backyard.

A.I.G also received a bail-out at the height of the credit crunch, seems United keep good company when it comes to wallowing in debt.

How the fuck is that giving the tickets back to the fans?

Surely it's "...giving the tickets back to the club to sell at an enormously inflated price to another corporate customer..." seeing as it's in a box?
