New sponsor incoming? Eco power scaling back apparently

[jamesrover17]

The sceptic/conspiracy theorist in me thinks there is something more to this, in reality its probably nothing though...

[Pinter777]

Seems to be confirmed, looking for new naming rights for the stadium

[mushRTID]

People on here raised serious doubts about their financial clout. Especially when a full takeover was rumoured.

I have to confess I’d never heard of them before they got involved in the rovers.

Hopefully it’s nothing that seriously affects us.

I wish we could give our stadium a proper name at last. It can still have a sponsor (e.g. like Rotherham).

[GazLaz]

Sold the profitable part of the company and can’t justify paying large amounts of sponsorship to a football club any more.

How long was the contract on the stadium naming rights.

Well it won't happen overnight.

The truth is that sponsorship worked for them in a way, they raised their profile to the point where the main part of their business, waste management, was acquired by a much larger company that we've all heard of, Biffa. Now that's happened the much smaller company that's left needs to reassess where it stands and sponsorship of that scale doesn't fit.

I'd trust the commercial arm of the club to do its job and come up with a suitable replacement.

It was 4 years Gaz.

Just as long as they don't name the stadium after a betting company.

It's got a proper name The Keepmoat, at least to some of us

[Lincoln Rover]

Nothing to worry about here at all. I believe Martin has summed it up well. Right, now let’s get get ready for tonight’s game.RTID

 Great endorsement for sponsorship of our stadium to new prospects. Use Eco power’s example of growth and subsequent sale….Ideal scenario.

yes, because keepmoat isn’t the name of a company is it?

[Sprotyrover]

Glad to see the back of Eco Power!

It doesn't matter, they were the 1st sponsor so to many it's still The Keepmoat
How many have you heard talk about the Eco Power? Still many refer to it  as the Moat or Keepmoat

[CheeseToastie]

Does this mean we will have no shirt sponsor for the foreseeable?

[Chris Black come back]

There was a decent sized cohort of fantasists pushing Eco-Power to take over from Terry the other year. Even before the sale of a division of their business, this was in no way a credible option. They did not have the finance available to acquire and run a league club. If the sale of part of the business had occurred after buying Rovers, you can imagine the chaos.

[Upton Rover]

I would like to see a sponsor, with great passion for the club

[silent majority]

No it doesn't. Shirts are all ordered and printed etc. So nothing changes for the immediate future.

[Upton Rover]

Got to agree with you there

[DRFC_AjA]

Wonder if sponsorship is cheaper, and thus more attractive, if you aren't forced to sponsor the belles and dons as well

[MachoMadness]

Bring back Earth mortgages. The Earth Stadium Mk.2! It might catch on this time.

[turnbull for england]

East Riding Sacks Stadium

[Nudga]

Viagra Stadium, seems quite fitting as some of our younger supporters think they are hard as f**k.

[glosterred]

Just as long as they don't name the stadium after a betting company.

Seeing that Biffa has taken over the profitable part of eco-power, maybe the stadium could be renamed The Biffa Stadium?

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Well, thinking ahead, whoever wins the contract to operate the airport, might want to embed themselves into the community in different ways.

Maybe that idea will be skipped.

Could you imagine it, The Bernie Biffas, I'd never be able to go to work, the ribbing would just be too much!

Im quite sure TB has it all in hand.

[i_ateallthepies]

Racecourse grandstand also has the Eco Power name on it, wonder if that will have to change...
