  1. 1. Are you happy with the new sponsors

    • Delighted!
    • I'd have prefered a commercial sponsor, but this is a great alternative
    • Simply don't care
    • Waste a valuable income
    • No objection to charity, do object to the Princes Trust
    • Other (Please Explain)

But I have just heard off a mate that we haven't got a sponsor for this season and we are giving it away to a charity!

Bold bit is correct as of now but I doubt the second bit. I know Venky's have been utterly inept up to this point but that would be crazy even for them.

The option still remains to sell it on a game by game basis.

I don't know whether or not this is correct, so don't shoot the messenger!

Very much doubt that... if we didn't have a sponsor i'm sure it would be left blank as the shirts look great like that and it would leave the opportunity for a late sponsorship deal once the season has started.

No way that's gonna happen.

Venky's want money and that comes with a sponsor – large or small.

With this Ali Marchant chap working on behalf of Venky's in India, I fully expect an 'Indian' sponsor to be unveiled before the season kicks off.

I don’t think we are any further down the line with this, it beggars belief it really does….

I think you're way off the mark John, we are a way down the line, and something should be announced soon.

People need to remember, this same situation has happened a number of times over the past 20yrs, no sponsor announced until late in the day, so its not just venkys this time despite the usual clamour to lay blame.

Really? Are you pretty sure of this? Good news if it's true.

Nothing is a certainty these days, but they've been looking for the best deal, not just settling for anything that comes along like we've done in the past, so that takes time.

Alternatively, if they are looking for positive coverage, not a bad idea.

Over the past 20 years, when have we been a week and a half till KO and not had a sponsor in place?

Debs gets confused now and again, Matty. Bless her. I met her once and she's a lovely girl. It's living with Gav that does it.

Never, but you have to remember we've had some poor deals over that time also. No point settling the sponsorship deal in January if its for peanuts and not the going rate.

We could start the season with no deal in place, but waiting that extra few weeks could see us making the biggest deal by far in the clubs history.

Not from what I heard Gav as of yesterday anyway...

You could be right, I've not heard anything concrete John.

You're not wrong den, on both counts :lol:
