For Coldplay it would amount to peanuts, of courseI'm sure it would work for us, just less sure it would work for Coldplay...I think sponsors for lower league clubs fall into two distinct categories. 1. Local companies who can derive strong commercial benefit in terms of sales through a tie up with City 2. Local companies who are national or international in their outreach and see the tie up with City as a community contribution with additional benefits
Would they think it would devalue their brand to be associated with a small club like City : I hope not.
Would they gain? Financially : very little. Reputation: maybe enhanced a little.
Hobby : I think so.
Not everyone always wants to make money from.every activity they do
Agree about your points 1 & 2 above, but it will need a company with a turnover of millions. As I said, there are several big companies each with hundreds of employees around Exeter. And as you said : most will want some kind of benefit from it.
