Could the delay be down to waiting on league approval for the new shirt sponsor? Seems likely, if it was FUN88 surely they would've just released it now.

I suppose it could have been a scheduled post based on an initial release date which has since been pushed back, possibly due to a hold-up with the sponsorship deal?

 

This would explain why it was posted, then promptly deleted and why Fun88 are still happily posting their usual NUFC content.

 

Like you say, if the release date is today, why delete the posts?

I reckon this is what happened. Quoting myself obviously [emoji38]

They are comically amateur mind.  It’s no big deal, but fuck me you couldn’t imagine adidas or Nike doing this

 

It's honestly probably deliberate. Marketing departments often try to be clever with this sort of thing

Who is it then? 

 

Two of three: Saudia Airlines, Aramco, and/or Saudi Golf. Shirt and sleeve sponsor

Based on anything other than hopes & wishes?

Based on what I know... could still be wrong though. Nothing is set in stone except what written on the tablet.

That’s the same guess as the ITK Twitter crowd tbf.

 

The problem is that Aramco is directly linked to PIF, and Saudi Golf is ran by one of the club’s directors, so either of those would immediately run foul of PL rules

Are you not allowed to be sponsored by any affiliated company now?

 

I honestly though it was just a case on inflated affiliated sponsorships?

 

Could they reject a Saudi sponsorship based on market value? Because that seems stupid tbh.

Yep - it can’t be an ‘affiliated party’ transaction.  Brought in back in October, oddly enough …

 

edit: sorry, yes ‘inflated’ affiliated party

Would the Premier League need to approve us changing our colours? 

 

It's the only thing that I can think of that would cause such a delay. 

Im about to go for a shit but Im waiting on the Premier League to approve.
