Keegans Export Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 If the kits are being unveiled tomorrow and if there is going to be a new sponsor, then they've done very well to keep it quiet.

Expand Don’t think they care all that much about how many shirts they sell in Saudi. It’s to do with getting the Saudi brand (and colours) in the world eye via the medium of football.

But I also have a sneaky suspicion that the Fun88 contract might be water tight with regards being paid off until it’s natural conclusion. Hope not though. We’ll soon see.

Stuy_O Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 If Fun88 are announcing their giveaway winner on Sunday then that points to them still representing us.

Expand I haven't seen any photo's. Just that deleted Castore clip. Looks to me as if they show just enough of the corner of the shirt to not show any sponsor.

TheBrownBottle Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 The fact that Castore are still our kit manufacturers - on the no doubt shit terms Ashley and Charnley 'negotiated' - should give pause to anyone assuming that all the current deals will be binned off Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My concern would be that I can't imagine Ashley inserting break clauses into commercial contracts, particularly when it is just 'free' income. Without this, there could be sizeable costs to buying out the contracts. We also don't know how long the Fun88 contract actually is - I wouldn't put it past Ashley's NUFC to have signed up to several years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
