exiledfan Posted May 19, 2022 Report Posted May 19, 2022 Though you need to be careful as with sponsorship if it changed we could be something like the Franky and Benny's Arena. Quote

[emoji1787]I was really meaning to cover the costs incurred, or at least part of them. Not really feasible though, as there are businesses that would need reimbursed for their costs too. We can but dream, though. Quote

Dump Smisa stadium!Got to agree. I will never call it any sponsors name. Especially one who doesn't pay for it. It's St.Mirren Park. Nothing else. Sent from my SM-A526B using Tapatalk Quote

guinness Posted May 20, 2022 Report Posted May 20, 2022 Still call it Love Street and always will. Quote

[emoji6]Smisa do not pay to sponsor the stadium. It was called that after the previous sponsor pulled out. Yes Smisa pay in other ways. But not directly the stadium. Quote
Callum Gilhooley Posted January 23, 2023 Report Posted January 23, 2023 Given the recent revelations of significant losses , I can’t understand why the Stadium name is still The SMISA Stadium. I would have hoped the commercial dept would have been trying hard to find a new sponsor and generate at least a bit more cash. Quote

I’m surprised there has never been change in that area in terms of personnel or number of staff. How long has CK been in that role? Did we not try and freshen up with Ali de Foy? Had she left the building now? It is incredible to think that CK has performed that role for so long without much or any assistance. If you compare our commercial setup with other similar sized clubs in the top league I would say we are understaffed in that area. Quote

TopCat Posted January 23, 2023 Report Posted January 23, 2023 What, you mean no one called it the simple digital arena? It is true though, I don't think anyone who isn't a St Mirren fan know what our stadium is called. Regularly hear other fans and pundits call it 'Greenhill Road' 'St Mirren Park' or even the dreaded 'New St Mirren Park'. Personally. I stick with Love St. If any future sponsor wants to throw some money at it they can have their brand in the name. Until then, it will officially be the SMISA stadium. Any formal name change would just put potential future sponsors off. Quote
