Are you sure they run out in 2015? It's been reported previously that they had been extended to 2025, it's mentioned in this article.

Having spoken with the head of marketing, it doesn't sound like that 2025 date is correct.
Although they were coy on revealing exact details - it seems 2015 isn't too wide of the mark. But options to extend 'on both sides'.

I guess this is pressure on ACL/CCC rather than SISU?
The thing is, the way you look at it you could think that with all the stuff going on people have said the word "Ricoh" a lot more than they would otherwise.
How many times has the word and the logo been in the press because of it?
The only thing is if they see it as negative press I guess.

As he said... he doesn't believe all publicity is good publicity!

10 mill according to this
still waiting for kylie Bowie and u2
so 1m a year, no small change in anyone's book. I wonder if the price goes up or down from the debacle of the last 2 years? 2 ways of looking at it really.
True, I don't think anybody would see Ricoh as a brand themselves negatively because of any of the goings on but I guess it is down to what they want to see their brand associated with.
If they had sponsored SISU's Christmas Party or something it would be a whole lot different.

Maybe this is why SISU are desperate to get the freehold. Sell the naming rights for a lot of years to get a lot of money for it. All they would have to do is bring our club home to get it.

Hate the name anyway.
Nice if Jaguar stepped back in now they are making money.
Can see a car showroom on the site and Land Rover test drive in the bowl.
Don't believe everything you read Dave. Wonder how those increased revenue projections are looking now.
There will not be a showroom on the site that would be illegal.
They won't be interested and if they would only if the football club is there.

"Don't believe everything you read"
There was no need to give an example. We got what you meant in the first instance.
Oh don't say you two think a car showroom would be owned by the car manufacturer?
They are subject to franchise agreements. The dealers are franchises. They have a contract. There are EU regulations regarding the motor industry. There will be no car showroom as to do so it would have to meet strict manufacturer CI legislation.
Don't talk about something you know FA about and I know a lot about.
No one (including yourself) was suggesting that the manufacturer would open a dealership it was just suggested that a car show room could open there.
I like the style of your reply though. Gareth from the office if I'm not mistaken, or was it the comic store guy from the simpsons? Do you do any other impressions?

At the moment ACL and the council would get. Why should they? Its the football club that attracts the name.
Psychic Sally arena perhaps?
As ever, you're talking through your hat. LG paid £28m for their sponsorship of the LG Arena. And that's an 8 year deal. That's no football, and 350% on what the Ricoh currently yields for sponsorship revenue.
As a venue, is the Ricoh the LG? No. Does it attract as big, or as many events? No. Equally, is it 'only' football that attracts the sponsorship? No
The LG is a prestigious indoor venue in the centre of Birmingham. Talk about barrel scraping.
I have said all along without the club there will be no sponsor. The most pertinent point is - where did the Observer get its information from. Information that puts the arena in a very positive light compared to reality.
Of course they will get a sponsor. However its more likely to be the local fish and chip shop (the one on Holbrooks lane)? Than LG is it not?
