I understand it's just a part of buisness, but anyway chaging of the stadium's name will be very sad...
I expect it'll be a long term name agreement of something like 15 or 20 years. After the contract runs out it will revert to the official name of the stadium (whatever that might be). Like the BT Cellnet changed to the Riverside Stadium and the Emirates will be called Ashburton Grove when the naming rights deal expires.
At least that is my understanding.

I don't think we'll do it.
be honest though, the ground doesn't actually stand on White Hart Lane but the new one will be closer to it than it is now :shrug:There is a fundamental difference with our new stadium compared to emirates, pride park, riverside etc, and that is that it is in the same place.
The others couldn't still be refered to as highbury, baseball ground and roker park because they are at a completely different place we however will still be at White Hart Lane whatever the stadium name is.
Like the man says if someone wants to give us 25% of the build cost to have heir name stuck on the wall that'll do nicely thanks.
Chimbo at the tat parlour? :hand: Not for me thankyou.Ah, fair point -
"Making Life Taste Better" was their old one, and i can't see how that would work either, unless they did some promo days - in place of Meet the Players we could have Lick the Players days, where housewives and sexed up girlie yids can go and run their tongue over pre-booked parts of our squad :think:
You're onto a winner RSS :dance:
maybe i'm onto something with that - dunno how many would want to lick Chimbo though if he turned up in the gammy shell suit he wore to get his tat's done :lol:
It will be very sad.
If the stadium project costs say £400m and we get say £100m for naming rights over a 20 year period, that's a quarter of the cost paid for already. In these difficult financial times that's understandable why it is going to be done, even if in an ideal world it wouldn't happen.
The alternative is in cost of tickets - if all 60,000 were sold as season tickets that is £83 per year over 20 years, just to re-coup the £100m lost by not selling the naming rights. It's not going to happen.

I don't know if this has been posted before, I had a quick scan but couldnt find it... Anyway, it's an article I read in Propertyweek magazine a while back: http://www.propertyweek.com/story.asp?sectioncode=39&storycode=3131389
