Happy 10th birthday to our stadium.

Next question. I assumed the halliwell jones deal was for 10 years..?

When is it due to run out.
I hate the sponsorship name and only ever refer it as hj.

It's the H and J, not HJ. I seem to remember they extended the deal.

Did someone on an earlier thread mention Emirates were interested in the naming rights.

The sooner the better.
From now on I will only refer it as Warrington Wolves Stadium.

As most of my customers do anyway.

What's actually to hate about sponsors paying to name a stadium, it seems like good business for the club in principle, or would you have preferred New Wilderspool with no cash coming our way?

You then go on about Emirates the sooner the better so is it that you think Halliwell Jones just isn't good enough now or will you and your customers still refer to The Emirates as the Warrington Wolves Stadium as a matter of principle if that happens or no matter who is involved?

I don't care, money is money.

The name is long winded and pants. Simple as that. The HJ I can deal with. The original 10 year deal was also too cheap IMO.

You want to sort us a new deal then, I'm sure Broomhead and Gatcliffe will be chuffed, but make sure they are
1. Fashionable
2. Short named
3. Loaded

Aldi, Lidl, Greggs, Poundland.... All short named, loaded to a decent extent, and fashionable with most of the RL fanbase and the good folk of Warrington - Surely one of those would like to be associated with a forward thinking organisation like the Wire???

Emirates Stadium Warrington

So basically, you are prepared to take the dirty dollar as long as they have a short name??..... Cock

And lots of money.
Yep, thats the top and bottom of it.

The stadium naming rights contract was extended in 2013 until 2017. Emirates have just come on board as a sponsor. 4 years sponsorship deal on the shirts takes Emirates to 2017 season and then they will be in position to look at either a) pulling out, b) carrying on the shirt deal, or c) working out an all encompassing deal across all areas of the business....including stadium naming?

Yes from the Vikings happy birthday to the stadium and we will celebrate the first team to win there and I reckon the only team ever to NIL a wire team with only 12 MEN in the second half...............AHHHH the thought is so great

Wasn't it going to be called The Peoples Stadium when Deakin was involved.

We could have had a big statue of Lenin or Arthur Scargill and played The Red Flag before every game.
