Money, Money,Money!!!!

Thinking about this £500m deal though. Fawaz has been transparent about marketing the club in his home land. There is no top level sport in Kuwait but they are football crazy. If fawaz wants us to be a representative of Kuwait at the highest level of the game, then there has to be significant investment. There are 200m Kuwaitis he's thinking of, as well as 30,000 forest fans.

Make that 2m Kuwaitis.

The figure is way too high. But just hypothetically speaking in some pig flying way lets say it could be a structured deal worth a certain amount in the Championship, more in the EPL and again different figures for Europe.

I know the top end of that is as likely as getting a substantial win on the lottery but we know Fawaz likes to set his targets up there. That would some more sensible to a degree but still, amount too high...

I did think that was another thing about Derby's that was odd. Not only was it some start up brand that agreed to sponsor them for ten years, but no consideration that the value of the marketing would increase multiple times on promotion. But according to flag pr@tt in reference to what is going on with us; it was really well researched

"Make that 2m Kuwaitis."
Only £250 each

"30,000 forest fans"

£50m a year is the bargin of a lifetime for the naming rights to our famous city ground. It's a deal, it's a steal, it's the sale of the century

The richest football club in the whole wide world, Rail Madrid, are doing a deal for naming rights for the world famous Bernabeu, for 500m EUROS for TWENTY years, just to give you some context of how excruciatingly embarrassing this 'rumour' of yours was.

The rumour came from a BBC reporter so wasn't specifically ours but thanks for taking the effort to dig out a thread from July

No problemo; it was either that or start a whole new thread about a subject already covered simply because I have a new comment to contribute.

Or 'Doing a Rev' as it's known in 606 parlance.

isn't doing a REV an almost daily repeat of a topic
