If Redbull bought us tomorrow

[robbied1]

wouldnt bother me one but, we would still and always would be subderland just a while lot richer and with a great future to look forward to

I would imagine there would be a fair few more season cards sold if they did buy us out.

 

[Roker Mackem]

No issues whatsoever with this.

Times change. Football is dying anyway- so may as well do something before it all goes haywire

 

[Fathead]

What's the difference between bought by red bull and the likes of abromovich and the arabs buying Chelsea and Man City, or Ashley funding the scum , they're shite I know , but if it meant success on the pitch then surely that's what we all want

 

[GAS Man]

Bring it on. Will still be Sunderland at the SOL. We are to far behind the big boys to care what we are called when generally all we really get called is shit.

 

[The Hesford Diet]

If they renamed to Red Bull Sunderland Fuck Off You Filthy Mags, I'd be okay with that.

 

[Aardfark]

Call us the fizzy piss stadium if I thought it would bring us some success..

 

[gipetto]

Would i mind being called RB sunderland - no
Would I mind playing at the RB arena - No

I would prefer for us to be successful organically but id take any success over this!

This for me.

I'd rather be "RB Sunderland" than "Subderland"

It depends if the 'rebrand' was loyal and respectful to our history. You could argue that the move to the new stadium and change of badge within a few years was a rebrand.

 

[Deleted member 29136]

I wouldn't be fussed.

 

[Lewberry pie]

No, but I'm quite unbalanced, there's very little I'd not do to have us winning trophies.

Red Bull rarely invest big sums on players so you'll likely be renamed alongside your kit changed, Would that really be worth an extra £20 million or so a season to spend on players? You wouldn't become another Chelsea or Man City and money doesn't guarantee success - we finished 4th with Marcus Bent up top whilst we are 7th right now with Lukaku.

Would be a disaster for any club, you'll become the most plastic club in England which would be a shame as Sunderland are a proper football club.

Looking at other Redbull clubs; Leipzig, New York and Salzburg.. is there anything specific that causes your concern?

So we'd be a lot richer for a while, with a name change to subderland and it wouldn't bother you but what?

Im not sure that we would get any fans other than local ones
We arnt in a tourist area, we would only be getting local people who support other clubs imo

If Redbull bought out Ellis Short tomorrow and wanted to rename us Redbull Sunderland would you have any issues with the re-branding?

But they arent going to are they so bit of a pointless question.

Some deluded people on here thinking a Red Bull takeover would bring success. As you said RB wouldn't have us competing against the top 7.

None at all if it stopped us being utter toilet.
