Whilst i agree other clubs also increased sponsorship deals we have to notice we moved up 3 places on the list, from 12th to 9th. We aren't talking one or two million more revenue to make that kind of jump. Surely we cant expect to move from 12th to the top 3 after one or two seasons....
As long as we are moving up that list, i think we are doing a good job and it will reflect on the pitch. No problem if you don't know marko but out of interest whip were the three we overtook and might the turmoil over the gillet and hicks era have affected our wealth ? Might this nit be a natural recovery from that ? I don't know just wondering ?

I think you're right though about us recovering from the Hicks & Gillet era, but it's good to see that we didn't just plateau and have instead have climbed back up the list.. can't fault that.

No can't fault it, it could have been worse. But it could have been better and it needed to be better to correct the inertia last 25 years that was what was expected and we never got it. Doing a little bit better just ain't enough

I have no idea who the three we overtook are...i suspect AC Milan might be one of the clubs but that is just a wild guess.

Doing a little bit better just ain't enough Correcting the mistakes of the past 25 years is not gonna happen in the space of one or two seasons though...increasing our value and hence our power on and off the pitch will take time, but it is happening.

I agree duncan best of the rest is all we can achieve these days. They have increased sponsorship ten fold they seems a lot is that corect and what is the baseline to measure that against ? Also again I woud imagine other premiershio clubs have increased sponsorship also
Incidently one thing missing from the post is manchester United are number two behind Real Madrid. And we are ninth ! Get the champagne out 9th in the world is pretty good, surely? There are some massive clubs from massive cities in that list, and they have won a lot of trophies and leagues in recent memory. We're doing well - I'm surprised we're as high as 9th to be honest.

Coming to think of it, not having one a league title in 25 odd years we're not doing too bad..

champagne is not fsg's style. i think they would buy us some 2015 wine and let it mature and then maybe open it in 20 years time when it's worth more
