But the rent charge seems an easier route.... For an extra £25m we`ll get the team to sign it if he wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to remember some wealthy owner (Man City maybe?) tried to take out a programme subscription for £100m or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaguely remember that too. In this instance it was a very large hospitality bill...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about it; raises the profile of the city, raises the profile of the city in Europe (through TV & competition), more media coverage, increases gate numbers (potential for crossover), commercially better for the Stadium, commercial opportunities for crossover. If we are actively seeking players from Europe (especially France) then maybe just maybe the raised profile of the city will counter any question of "Bristol, where is that/never heard of it" from any potential target. You have a point there. I was talking to friends in France last week about football teams where I live, blank looks until I mentioned Exeter City, "ah, the same city as Exeter Chiefs?"
