Yes, we hopefully are coming good at the right time and will be in a position to attract the limited sponsorships that will be out there in the marketplace.
The TV rights is a worry, if the advertising revenue they deem to generate won't be enough to warrant the lofty price they've paid in the past for them, or if channels go under. I wonder how the AFL feels about a reduced TV rights. Although I think they mentioned this on the Footy Show last night and they were talking about a billion dollars-plus for the next rights. I agree with this summary, MT you've done and I think over a billion is in lala land.
This is a really bad time for sporting organisations at the moment, and we have to really put our best foot forward now to compete with other clubs and organisations tooth and nail.
Manchester United have just lost its massive sponsorship with AIG. It's hitting hard everywhere.
