Well, LG has been a sponsor of Lyon for several years now, and since it’s a Korean company, Aulas may see that as an inroad into Asian markets. So I guess LG makes sense in a way – but do you think they’d be willing to pay 150m+ for the naming rights? Are they a very rich company?

Looking at our current sponsors, Novotel, Renault, and Audi are the only other ones that look capable of paying that sum.

Gosh ! JMA reads this blog and take our ideas !
Hi Jean Mimi !!! Thanks for Karim’s extended contract!

You’re right Inara, I won’t support something like Ticket Restos Stadium.
I think the LG’s idea is a good alternative.
That’s kind of “passe partout”.
We’ll see. But I think as you do, Inara : JMA already knows what the OL Land name will be.
Something strange : If you google LG stadium Lyon, you’ll see that appears very often in French links…
Is that a clue ?

I remember when you predicted LG Stadium, Jo. Seriously, you should get on that bet. You still have time!

About the name itself…well, I’m not too partial to it, though anything is better than Ticket Restaurant Stadium (which is a very big fear!). I wonder when Aulas will announce the name? Surely he’s decided by now.

Oh I’m sorry. The Yahoo translation didn’t work.
Here is the link in French : http://www.acteursdusport.fr/PAR_TPL_IDENTIFIANT/11707/TPL_CODE/TPL_LDC_ACTU_FICHE/PAG_TITLE/Le+futur+stade+de+Lyon+d%E9nomm%E9+%22+LG+Stadium+%22+%3F/587-rechercher.htm

I’m sorry, that’s not the subject but… i wanted to share this funny thing with you !
That’s about the possible new name of OL Land.

If you click on the tag “OL Land / New Stadium” on your right, and read my comment on the first article, you’ll see that’s what I predicted too !
I should have bet it with bookmakers ! Grrr !

I’m so sorry not to have posted in the last couple of days, but things have been crazy. Ush, I’ve been having the same questions about tactics, and I’ll have a post up tomorrow so we can all discuss it.

Isn’t it so great that Lyon will have choices instead of forced line ups?

i agree with you Ush, people that have left Lyon have gone on to crappy clubs. Thats right Corey, i said CRAPPY CLUBS lol, Sue me.

……also, Is Cesar Delgado Alive, i haven’t seen him since that game that happened a while back ( thats how you know my memory is bad, i cant tell you which game it was ).

Keitas naturally on the right so rotate him and Govou perhaps, and Ben Arfa and Delgado on the left. What Ben Arfa needs is a kick up the ass and some competition for his spot. Skilfull as he is, I would not be worried if he was sold, I wasn’t when Malouda was and look how Malouda has ended up, pissed off on the bench at a “bigger” club.
