h-e-a-r-t-s Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Break it down. For every ?1 they give to Man Utd they expect to drive around ?1.50 in revenue from fans around the world buying shirts. Only thing mind boggling perhaps is the support of English teams around the world that drives these deals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will be looking to reneg on that within 5 the way things are going More than twice the second most valuable deal which is Adidas paying Real Madrid ?31m. Though I'm sure that will be going up. They also get ?53m from Chevrolet as shirt sponsors. ?120m from Aon for sponsoring training ground and kit. Insane, still I suppose if your wage bill is ?182m...

(All figures from the BBC) And the interesting thing about that is that General Motors are going to stop selling Chevrolet cars in Europe next year. "The ending of Chevrolet new car sales operations in western, central and eastern Europe was a strategic business decision. Chevrolet?s results here have been and are forecast to continue being unacceptable, due to expected low sales volumes, and intense competitive price pressure from OEM?s with significant overcapacity in Europe. There?s also a cost impact associated with future EU automotive legislation.?" From International Fleet World. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masonic Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 When u consider the margins Adidas make its a fine investment which is likely to be very lucrative for them advertising in sports is a huge thing because its one of the things people watch live which makes it a premium advertising opportunity. When you think of inflation in football and deflation in currency you would be wise to speculate that the cost of this in the future would be more so i think Adidas got the better side of the deal 10 years is a lot of time. Look at the superbowl commercials for instance they can cost millions for seconds i know which one id prefer to be involved with as a business opportunity.

jamboinglasgow Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I find this whole thing very depressing when you consider our club was close to liquidation over a debt that was less than what they will get from Chevrolet for one season. Money being chucked about in the EPL really is mental Financial inequality in football is staggering, yet it is never challenged. EPL clubs waste so much money that it almost makes you cry. Even Agents get more money in one deal than some SPFL Premiership clubs will spend on wages in a season. In a year from Oct 2012 to September 2013, the EPL paid ?96.67m to agents in fees, to put that in prospective that is probably more than is spent in total by Scottish clubs in a season. As you say we almost went under from reckless spending but the fans dug deep to get hundreds of thousands, possibly even a million, to keep the club afloat. Clubs in lower tiers of England are almost going under for bills of ?30k, yet players at the top will get paid at least that in a week. The difference between rich and poor in football is becoming scary. That said, the huge sponsorship deals is one thing Man U fans can thank the Glaziers for (if they think they are good) as the Glazier model is to make most of every possible commercial deal, hence why they are getting sponsors for everything and getting top dollar (or pound) for it. Even read that part of the plan for Rooney's contract would be a joint sponsorship deal, where for a cut of these deals, Rooney would agree for his image to be used exclusively by United's brand partners.
