[Albion] New £100m AMEX deal.

[Chicken Run]

What a shame Naylor used a stock photo of the East Stand ffs.

I doubt we will make £8m a year from ticket sales so this is a huge increase in income. Great work by the club

 

[Frankie]

Excellent signing, especially tying them down to a longer deal, this club has never been in a better position from top to bottom.

 

[Napper]

just need to push on , on the pitch now

Amex is a great name for the stadium

 

[Triggaaar]

Can I ask a stupid question? If it is 100m is that spread over the period or every season!!!! The former doesn't seem enough and the latter seems rather large!

It's per hour.

 

[Marty___Mcfly]

That should fund the construction of the North Stand upper tier..

 

[SockMonster]

It's per hour.

Excellent!

Unfortunately most of it will likely get swallowed up by the cost of the new bottle top detection system.

 

[Stinky Pete]

Intrigued by this: ‘Off the pitch, the company will partner with the club to develop and support ways of further enriching the fan experience at the Amex Stadium’

Hoping this includes making more of the outside space.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

At least it means we will still be going to the Amex instead of some 'weirdly named stadium' which changes names every time the sponsor changes.

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

That should fund the construction of the North Stand upper tier..

That's exactly what I thought the initial tweet meant, 'Albion announce Amex expansion'.

 

[blueandwhitestripes]

That's brilliant news!!

 

[timbha]

Whilst it's great we've kept them rather than going to some dodgy Macau betting firm

What's the source on £100m?

EDIT: Source added


Very tasty. May have to look at an AmEx card now...

This is great news and impeccably timed to make a statement just before the season starts. Just think what would happen if the government bans betting sponsorship in sport. They did it with smoking.

 

[Marty___Mcfly]

Glazed players tunnel and cheese room to come?

 

[SUIYHP]

Good stuff. As much as AMEX are sticklers for the white panel on our shirts, I'd rather them than MansionBetfun88官网 or whatever the hell is on every craphouse EPL shirt these days.

It now means that if you have an Amex Gold Card or above you are allowed to bring in one flask and one bottle (with top) per game.

12-year sponsorship deal.

Get in.

Seems low for the sponsorship rights of all teams, the stadium and the training ground.
Unless we're a Championship team: then it seems high.

How much do Man Bet (chuckle) pay?

Would be interested in our financial guru's take.

 

[Perfidious Albion]

Wonderful news!

The kudos of having a respected name like Amex applied to our home is beyond price , so whatever the financials are, it is great news.

(Imagine the embarrassment of a name like Brum's Trillion Trophy Stadium! )

 

[TottonSeagull]

If it is £8m a year for the next 12 seems a bit on the light side!

So you are assuming we are a premier league club for the next 12 years?
