Attract Foreign Investers : Wed Dec 14, 2011 11:17 am  

Why can't we attract any foreign investors, there is plenty of advertsing exposure on SKY TV, it wouldn't need a Premiership Football Club type of sponsor, just some rich Arab with a bit of pocket money to splash around. Would be a good investement, ground naming rights, millions of people coming to Xscape and Freeport every year.
Me thinks a visit to Qatar and have a word with some of those World Cup rich Arabs might be a good idea.

There would have to be some form of benefit to the 'oil baron'. Those who buy into the football teams do it for bragging rights, and for something to do with their loose change which adds to their recognition on the world stage. Putting money into Cas, or the Xcape would bring them diddley squat, and that's why it'll never happen from an overseas investor!

Is that your business plan?

In my professional opinion, it needs a bit of work.
