ruggedknot 105 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Gazporm footing the energy bill as well !http://www.gazprom-m...ship-deal-.aspx".......exclusively supplying gas and power to Chelsea’s training facility at Cobham and the Stamford Bridge Stadium."So that's, (presumably) more expenses saved during matchdays at the Bridge and lighting up Cobhalm with all the shenanigans going around there.One European title and the floodgates open with all the sponsors coming in. Time for Gourlay to really earn his money and parlay the deal by quickly starting work on a new stadium with the energy bill being taken care of.Another tidbit :As part of the agreement, the Gazprom brand will be visible on LED boards at Stamford Bridge for Premier League, FA Cup and League Cup games. There will also be other opportunities including branding on all media backdrops and across Chelsea FC’s digital platforms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
