    Seasonal package at Rotherham (average attendance 10,000). Same league as us, same local wealth, same demographic. £4500 +Vat

    Success off the field is also linked to success on it.

    We're talking about an 5 figure scoreboard, a lick of paint & telling the cleaners to clean the seats nothing really to upset the company accounts. We're not asking for a new stadium.

    Personally I can't see any business in there right mind paying 400 pounds for a one off advert at Oakwell

    It isn't a one off advert, it's an advert played a few times at one game

    Take a look at our commercial websites and the costs involved and then have a look around the stadium and see how much advertising they've got, you'll be surprised.

    And how much are the permanent advertising hoardings?

    If I was a businessman I'd rather have my company name/logo on a hoarding, preferably near the goals.

    If you are worried about seats being dirty why don't you volunteer and clean a few. I'm sure it wouldn't take you long after all there only 23k seats. I always carry a tissue and a wet wipe just in case I need to clean a seat.
