ferguson1 Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 We really need to maximise our shirt sponsorship this summer, whether it be with Cazoo or someone else. I could be wrong but don’t we have one of lowest deals in the Premier League? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted April 1, 2022 Moderator Share Posted April 1, 2022 How on earth were Everton getting away with a £12.5m a year deal for definitely-not-real- owner Alisher Usmanov's USM to sponsor their own training ground - USM Finch Farm? That's pretty much the same amount of income we make each season from the total of our season ticket sales. Liverpool get £20m a season, but that also includes sponsorship of their training kits - Utd get £22.5m a year which also includes training kits - Everton's deal is completely out of place - Southampton make just under a million a year for their Crypto training ground and training kit sponsorship. It's absurd that Everton have been essentially having their "real" owner plowing money into the club through the back door and even more ridiculous that they've somehow managed to throw all of that money away and a bucketload more besides. Anyways, I'm all for the "Adidas Performance Centre; Bodymoor Heath" if they've got £10m a year hanging around doing nothing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t matter really though as now they've set the precedent and we you could argue we are worth maybe a bit more. + Add Vegas long term (hopefully) we will have increased cross sponsorship opportunities and we’ll grow exponentially.

Maybe if we were doing an "internal sponsorship" but their position was unique in that the sponsor was the de facto owner, although not the official owner. If Fortress did it, I wonder if we'd be open to sanction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Everton did that sponsorship before we brought in the new rules when Newcastle were taken over. Now Premier League needs to approve these sponsorships deals with associated companies. Adidas would fall into that category as NS is largest shareholder of that company.

Some reports imply that a "good" Stadium naming rights agreement, is probably the third biggest funding income stream for teams that choose to do it, so if the right deal could be found, it could help our finances a bit? Apparently Everton get 12 million for the training ground sponsorship I see its already been mentioned.

Rightdm00 Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 (edited) New regulations taking over for FFP all but ensure that even if we get into Europe our squad will be picked clean soon after. The revenue of the Top 6 clubs is so far past us they can spend 2-3x as much each year. Barring a massive Grealish like sell every 3 years I don't see how we can compete. The drawbridge is all but up at this point. Edited April 6, 2022 by Rightdm00 Small typo fix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody mentioned Usmanov sponsoring Everton's training ground, and then Fortress was mentioned as a sponsorship possibility .... I'd love it if Wes was able to give us millions in return for naming "Fortress Villa Park" after his investment company. It has a great vibe!

a m ole Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 It’s great for the club to not have to give a shit about having a whole design, retail, e-commerce etc department to worry about, the problem is just fanatics are really shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBlack Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Using fanatics in this way surely has the effect of decreasing our commercial revenue overall? Are they only making a profit on the deal because of their ability to work at a much larger scale than we could? Or are the margins so rubbish its not worth our hassle?
