Speaking of the project related to the construction of a new stadium for Inter, during a meeting with supporters took place in Jakarta, the president of Inter Erick Thohir has launched a hint to the Italian institutions: “At the moment, I’m not in a position to answer, because we are still in a study phase and we have to figure out whether to make a new one by ourselves or with Milan, or reconstruct the Meazza. The clubs can not rely only on television rights, but also on match tickets for their revenues. Italy should do as in the United States, where the club has the full support of the local community. It should be the granting of land for 100 years where to build a stadium. Because a football team is the pride of a region. But now, even the Italian government is beginning to support projects for the stadiums. We have obtained a loan on the rental contract for the Meazza which we will use to modernize the stadium and its facilities,” he concluded.

I would support a plan to bulid a stadium together with AC due to 3 main reasons:
1. to save a tradition
2. to lower expenses
3. that’s how we could have a 70,000 capacity insted of 40-50,000 if we go solo
What do you guys think?
I don’t think Milan want a new stadium. If we build a new one, they will inherit the current one. So there is no need for 2 new stadiums. The smartest thing would be to have our own stadium with brand new facilities and modern contemporary vision.
We should have a new stadium…this sharing sh*t with Milan is enough already
We don’t need a renovation., that will help AC Milan to save their money for their own stadium. WE NEED A DAMN STADIUM.
Super President!
For now,just two questions,Mr. President: 1. Who will broadcast live inter games for season 2014/2015 in indonesia? 2. Where is the official inter store in indonesia?
1.kompas tv
2.coming soon (i hope)
official store? LOL
and how many people will buy official merchandise when most INTER fans in indonesia don’t really care about it and prefer to buy KW because of cheap price?
even ICI had a great difficulty when they tried to mobilize their member to buy the CCIC (which is lot cheaper than let say, official jersey).
betul!
There’s a market for it, Jersey is quite expensive even for the first world standart. Let alone in Indonesia with average salary of $300 asking for $50-$60 for jersey is quite hefty But Merchandise is much more than just jersey. Lots of smaller item like Scarf, Hat, Beanie, small flags, etc which is cheaper and more accessible to the fans. I personaly only have one jersey, but bought many of smaller item (Iphone Case, Beanie Hat, Scarf, etc) at Inter Store Free Shipping Promo.
and how much is the price for those smaller merchandise things?
it’s still within the range of CCIC cost.
but like I said previously, most of the fans still reluctant to register CCIC, and only small group of them whom actually registered CCIC in the end.
let say that those small group ended also buying small merchandises, do you think the profit would be significant?
even there’s possibility that it wouldn’t be sufficient for daily operational cost of INTER store itself.
bottom line is, indonesian market is big, but not ready for this merchandising thing.
But there’s a lot of Interisti outside of ICI. Like me who doesn’t bother joining ICI but spend much of my time and money to watch and buy inter stuff. CCIC isn’t selling merchandise, its more of an organization thingy packed with different rewards. Things like Keychain, Coffee Mug, T-Shirt, Smartphone case could really sell. And im not talking about opening a bigass store at first class mall of jakarta. Maybe could starts with opening a small spot for official inter merchandise in some sports retailer like sports station, planet sports, etc. Or even an dedicated regional online inter store because my problem buying things in Inter.it store is expensive shipping cost and it took at least 2 weeks to deliver.
painful truth, ey..?? I’m still hoping that we should learn the difference in pride when buying an official thingy with that makeshift part
World class news!
