What do we think?
Re: General Sports Worldwide
From their web site, it looks as though they have done some useful projects that produced benefits with other clubs at the lower levels of EFL and National League, so it looks like a good move. It will be interesting to see what develops.
Re: General Sports Worldwide
Revenue streams need to be maximised. Not just match day. These guys are experts in what they do so hopefully it brings about increased in commercial revenues.
Just hope they understand Barrow and the club don’t take their eye off the average matchday goer and put price points in for sponsorships/ hospitality that are out of reach.

If Paul Hornby thinks it's a good idea that's OK for me.

There's only one criterion: will they generate more than they cost? If so, fine.
Don't let the old man in.

Re: General Sports Worldwide
The club have been poor commercially for a number of years if it generates more money that is great
The company behind it will be delighted to get the gig because it is clear to everyone there are loads of ways the club can make more money
Good luck to them

Re: General Sports Worldwide
The case study from Carlisle sounds promising, obviously a lot bigger club than us but at least they’ve experience of doing stuff in the national league

Re: General Sports Worldwide
Carlisle fans praise their corporate hospitality offerings so if they’ve played any part on that side then can only think good things
Re: General Sports Worldwide
We've been stung by Charlatans in the past.
This deal should be minimum outlay balanced with a good percentage paid to the Consultants from revenue they earn.
We are not commercially savy the deal with the Hospice tarnished both the Hospice and the club under Paul Casson..
