Also included an interesting paragraph that may cast doubt on what we are being told about the importance of other incomes like naming rights & sponsorship
"Senior figures at Championship clubs say shirt sponsorships in the division earn between £250,000‑500,000, and it is difficult to sell stadium naming rights at all. Leicester’s local rival, Derby County, who have a bigger stadium capacity, recently sold their naming rights to iPro, a sports-drink company, for £700,000 a year"
FFP is utterly stupid anyway. An example of a strategy poorly thought through.
The only way to do it is have a fixed squad, so like the world cup you name your squad before the first game and thats it for the season. Have a salary cap, and potentially a salary floor as well. Would make the league much more competitive.
That equates to £1.2m which is 3 players salary based on average championship wages. I think that represents a significant problem. And thats before you consider any other incomes we don't get access to.
I also don't see the value on stadium sponsorship for the people buying it either, because Ricoh have sponsored the arena it hasn't made we want to go out and buy a photocopier.

Ever since Allsop & Allsop have sponsored us, I have seen a lot more of their signs about.
Cant help thinking (conspiracy plots aside) that SISU are breathing a sigh of relief we are not going up because of the financial consequences that would bring for them.
Tallies with Tim Fisher's thinking

I now know who Ricoh are however, whereas I certainly didn't before.
But then if you had a need for a Photocopier, would you not think of them first over Xerox, Samsung or HP?

Think it just depends on the product / brand. The same as if JLR sponsor it, I can't see it making too much difference because if people want a Jag or Land Rover they know what they want so they go and get one.

It has made you aware of their brand though.
