Chelsea consider selling naming rights for Stamford Bridge
Quote:
You can bet the Glazers will do the same if Chelsea sell naming rights to Stanford Bridge. |

They can't sell "naming rights" because Stamford Bridge already has a name. Allthey can sell is "presentation rights" (as has happened at Newcastle).
As for whether the Glazers would do it at OT, Gill has already said that there is "no value" in it for United. Basically we'd lose as much sponsorship revenue clearing out what presentation rights we've already sold in the stadium (eg to Hublot, Nike and Audi) as we'd ever gain. |

Of course they can. The MEN used to called the Nynex Arena. Borrusia Dortmund's stadium is now called Signal Iduna Park Stadium - formerly Westfalenstadion. So it's been done before. . . |

As for Chelsea wanting to increase revenue...not as if they have anything to spend it on for the next 2 years , although I'm sure they'll squirm their way out of that one.

The Westfalen however is an excellent example though as I've never heard it called anything else. If Dortmund claimed they were selling naming rights rather than presentation rights to the Westfalen, Mr S. Iduna should be paying a visit to the Rhineland Trading Standards Department! |

I see your point that selling the "Presentation Right" may devalue the current deals that the other sponsors hold, but if one brand was to pay a huge amount, im sure the board would consider it. Gill said we wouldnt sell Ronaldo, but things change. |

The Home Depot Center is pretty bad - LA Galaxys stadium. Especially the way Americans say Depot. FC Nuremberg play at the EasyCredit-Stadion. And Dicks Sporting Goods Park - home of the Colorado Rapids.... Dick's Sporting Goods Park - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |

You can't do the latter, however hard you try. In fact even when the original name was the result of the sale of naming rights, that tends to stick. I still refer to Huddersfield's ground as the McAlpine. |

Whoever owns the stadium owns the naming rights and can do what they want with them. Well nothing stopping them but a riot of fans. Theater of Dreams works quite well for now thank you potential investors. |
