Stadium Naming Rights / Press Conference [Merged]

[hertsblue]

Re: Stadium Naming Rights.

I don't see how this doesn't represent "fair value" when, as has already been stated, Arsenal agreed a similar deal with Emirates and that was 5 years ago. If it was 3 or 4 times more than that deal then fair enough but it isn't.

Anyway, before I start slagging UEFA off, talk of an investigation into it appears to be driven by the media - for all we know City might have already run this past UEFA and they've no problems with it.

Edit: Ok, looking at the figures it's about double that Arsenal got paid but they signed their deal with Emirates in October 2004 so that was nearly 7 years ago.

Yep Arsenals was way way back in 2004 + last December Barcelona received a new 150 million Euro Shirt sponsership (not a peep from UEFA on this mind u, fair value and fair play)

Ahhh bless.

He'll be velly upset if the rags or scousers do it.

PMSL. They won't be able to afford not to.

I wonder if the nobhead bleated on like a little girl when the rags sold their soul to stock market decades ago?

He posted his question and Twitter details on the MEN live feed.

Can someone explain how city can name a stadium owned by the council and payed for by Manchester tax payers?

If UEFA do look at fair value they should do it with our transfer fees paid and wages too.
