Well they have to be a better sponsor than Lonsdale, lol.

Hopefull this deal will draw in extra income as these online gambling places are not short of a few bob.

[Bobby G]

Good!

No scraping till the summer. Signs of better times that we have signed it in February and its a long-term one.

Im going to check out their logo now to see how it will look on our shirt.

I hope its not going to be that green and yellow one which I have in mind.

PS. How much do you think MGP's presence in our team has influenced their decision?

Their logo doesnt get me going though.

After reading the last paragraph/quote, the optimism coming from the club recently is definitely a breath of fresh air. Plus the potential extra pennies from this deal will help too, as well as the maybe extra coverage in Scandinavia to increase our profile there.

Thats a good point that Bobby G, MGP is loved in Norway, he is like what David Beckham is to England isn't he. With Bet 24 being a Nordic business i can see that being good business for them to sponsor the side featuring Norway's best player.

Wow! Designs for next years shirts are ot that we can choose, our sponsers for the next few years have been revealed, we have done the double on Ushited, Bentley got a hat trick AND our boss is touting Europe, not avoiding relegation as our goal.

Am I dreaming?

[Wolverine]

And here is a quickie as to how the kits would look next year based on everyones choices and the logo for bet24...

Yeah, I sometimes think for a second I have logged into wrong club forum these days

Hopefully they'll change the logo to fit the shirt better

[Bobby G]

That logo looks disgusting on the shirts!!!

[greggyk]

get rid of the green background on the logo and it might look alright

Agreed ... although I'm sure it will be tailored to fit in with the shirt design.

I've really taken to the Lonsdale logo across the middle of the shirt... It's my favourite since McEwans Lager.

Although I'm sure the Bet24.com deal will mean more £$ than our current deal ... and that's what it's all about I suppose.

Nothing could spoil my mood today!!

I've got 2 more floors of MANUre fans to visit before lunch

If the green background is removed, the kit could look quite nice with the sponsor on it.

''Top international firm''

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm ....I just hope it pays well for Rovers as they fully deserve it.

I agree. So I have modified them to remove the green:

And again!

[Bobby G]

Better but not as good as this seasons, which has been one of my favorites of all time, reminding me of the 94/95 season.

[ihtd]

Shame we aren't top of the league like in 94/95 Bobby G. I'm just happy that a biggish firm wants to sposnor us. I say that becuase these internet gambling sites are going from strength to strength at the moment. They will have low costs and high levels of income, so by sponsoring us they have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Plus the fact we have a fair few Norwegian fans might have swayed it.

[Gumbi]

Here's a mock up which I made that looks a lot better in my opinion

Changed it now to make logo smaller.

Edited February 2, 2006 by Gumbi

[Eddie]

Doesn't look too bad in my opinion, but maybe they'll slightly modify their logo for the purpose of being put on the shirt anyway.

[Gumbi]

Here's what it looks like on Home template 3.

I doubt they will be keen to alter their logo, even in the interests of good taste. The away shirt looks far too much like our favourite near (distance not quality) rivals for my liking!

[Presty On Tour]

the last 24 hours av been bloody great eh!!

i'll win euro millions on friday now and i'll bring ronaldiniho to ewood

[andy82]

Dunno if its been mentioned or not but we arent the only ones with this deal. Leeds Utd have also announced pretty much the same thing today....

[Hughesy]

Any indication as to how much we will recieve for this deal?

[Ricky]
