laticdickovarmy Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) A question, I received my weekly Arsenal e-mail today and in it was mentioned the sponsorship of the ground as it is due up for renewal pretty soon So the question is would you be happy for Boundary Park to sell out to a company for £££ that could potentially help finance the new stand? Enter here the name of ridiculous company we could use! ----------------------------------------- Sorry for the stupid font Edited November 14, 2012 by laticdickovarmy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeslover Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 It's a no-brainer, take the money and as fans we can still call it whatever we like if the new name sucks. It can be the Theatre of Cockfun for all I care if it funds a couple of players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laticdickovarmy Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 I dont know if the club have ever looked into this im sure they wouldn't struggle finding someone as good advertising just as above mentioned would seem a no brainer to me and could provide the money for the stand and a player or two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I'm sure they'd love to do it. Finding a sponsor willing to pay a worthwhile amount is a different kettle of fish though. Has anybody ever bought a Detect All alarm as a result of the Chaddy roof thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego_Sideburns Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 If money can be gained from sponsorship, snatch the sponsor's hand off. No matter what the sponsor's name for the stadium, it'll always be 'Boundary Park' to the supporters. As with the stands being named and renamed over the years, they've always been known as 'Main' , 'Rochdale Road' and 'Chaddy', regardless of sponsors, the only exception being an undying loyalty of many supporters to the sponsor Lookers in what was really the Broadway Stand.

To me the home stands will always be the Seton Stand, The George Hill stand and The Lookers and I wouldn't buy a second hand car an extention to my house or a tubular banadage from any of those organisations.

ghostofcecere Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Slightly off topic, but I've been to Rotherham today and drove past their new stadium. It's looks all I wished our finished ground would be, but won't. How come that can do it and not us? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lancy lad Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Problem is, if you had a succesful business..................would you really want its name slapped all over a tireless ageing football ground? Not until at least the stadium has a 4th stand and been tidied up and brought into this century! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laticdickovarmy Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) i did fear a bit of a hammering for suggesting the change but seems most would be happy On 12 June 2008, Colchester United revealed a ten year sponsorship deal with Weston Homes,[4][5] worth up to £2 million to sponsor the new stadium. The deal included sponsorship of Colchester United's shirts for the 2008–09 and 2009-10 seasons. After looking into it found the above! Just imagine even £1 million for changing the name of the ground on say 5 year deal! Easy money!

The thing is a lot of people know the name of all 92 football grounds and thats what i think of when asked about a team not the quality of the company as the ground is :censored: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lancy lad Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Any firm that paid for that tidying up would have my immediate goodwill! And mine aswell. Incidentally does anyone know what is happening with the "tidying up" of the Chaddy End roof? A few weeks ago the club were showing this on the OS and all "Spiderman" did was paint the top corners of the stand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
