It will.. first £4m goes to LLDC with the rest split equally. Says so in the article.None of it will go to West ham though.

I shouldve read it.It will.. first £4m goes to LLDC with the rest split equally. Says so in the article.
That would be a big blow if that stadium gets naming rights before we are able to and Allianz not exactly a crypto type deal either
It's been said before, so again.... to spread the name of Tottenham Hotspur, and the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium far and wide is far more valuable than the money (for now) we could get from a naming rights deal. Then it's the sponsor's logo faeces all over everything & we go back to the shadows.
& the first sponsor's name will stick for A LONG TIME. So even if Sainsbury's pony up £100m a month, I doubt we'd call it the 'Every Little Helps Arena'. The sponsor has to be right.

So true. Just waiting for the 'new owner' one to get bumped!International break…time to bump the naming rights thread.
If Sainsbury’s were to pay 100 m a month we would def be calling it “every little ….”

Not that I want West Ham to get any benefit ever, but you're right, in particular if they're the ones going out into the market to sell the sponsorship deal then they should be getting a proportion of the revenue.A deal for the London Stadium can only be beneficial for us in that ours will definitely be have a greater value. The London Stadium is trading on its Olympic legacy and avoiding the shoddy reputation.
Additionally, it is only fair that Wham get a percentage of the deal because ultimately football is the attraction at that stadium. Without Wham, that stadium would be a white elephant.
Hush up with all that reasonable thinking.A deal for the London Stadium can only be beneficial for us in that ours will definitely be have a greater value. The London Stadium is trading on its Olympic legacy and avoiding the shoddy reputation.

I disagree, West Ham’s benefit from the stadium is getting a new stadium for £2.5m a year rent, zero debt, better infrastructure for fans, more exposure with tourism, took very little risk etc.A deal for the London Stadium can only be beneficial for us in that ours will definitely be have a greater value.

Yes they bring PL football, but whoever agreed for them to get an equal percentage after the first £4m was either dim or on the take, it is not in the interests of the Tax Payer.
It should have been argued at the negotiating stage that, yes you can have it for stupidly cheap, but we will benefit from your PL status by selling the naming rights.
The whole deal was disgraceful, although I was entirely against it, our bid made more sense and it would have benefited the tax payer and athletics more.
Can only guess that the person that went in to negotiating the deal had virtually no experience in any big deals as it appears they had their pants pulled down.
And that’s the problem, the stadium wouldn’t have needed to be retro refitted a million times, and millions £s. And wouldn’t be losing millions a year, it would only be probably losing a few hundred thousand a year! This deal takes corruption to a new level and yet the deal makers don’t get thrown over hot coals for it!! Honestly top level government with the conservatives is daylight robberyI suspect the potential solo airs are their BECAUSE of West Ham and Premiership football. If WHam didn’t get a slice of the revenue then they would have no skin in the game to support the sponsorship. Without that, the deal would likely fall flat.
We may not like it, but it’s the way it’s turned out. The problem is the initial deal which may or may not be tainted with corruption but the consequences would have been a stadium left to rot and draining tax payer money to host 3long jumps and a shot put competition twice a year.
That's pretty much what Levy said isn't it. He did say something about not feeling that betting firms were the image that the club wanted - I assume that was in relation to the stadium. I'd definitely concur with those who are saying that the stadium as it is, sans sponsor, is more attractive.It's been said before, so again.... to spread the name of Tottenham Hotspur, and the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium far and wide is far more valuable than the money (for now) we could get from a naming rights deal.
