sushimonster85 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Think the sponsorless shirts are a huge hint at them being the front of shirt sponsor from next season as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could also potentially see them as a partner for our friendlies in Saudi Arabia, as our current sponsors won’t be allowed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just assumed it's because fun88 is shit and they didn't want to advertise gambling. Wonder if PL can put a fair price on official tour partner inline with other clubs?

BoSelecta Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 I wonder if Eales & the club are in on the ‘how much can we get away with here’ chat or if that’s decided externally and the offer put to them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In proper business they are two different things but I think the term is essentially interchangeable when it comes to football. I guess they are going to provide all the flights etc for the KSA trip so its more of a "partnership" rather than purely a sponsorship arrangement (eg we'll give you money and you stick our logo on something) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qatar Airways likewise, owned by the Qatari government. All the clubs whom have Gulf state money involved have state owned flag carrier airlines as sponsors or partners. Nowt new and to be expected but its just another thing for them to hit the club with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keegans Export Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 He does raise a valid point that having new owners shouldn't necessarily put an end to the aim of fan representation, although I'd like to think that NUST (etc) are going to give the current owners a chance to make moves in that area before trying to force their way in.

Hopefully Dazza Eales has some adidas contacts from his MLS days. To continue banging the adidas drum, just saw this: https://www.footyheadlines.com/2022/11/saudi-arabia-join-adidas.html, so hope something can be worked out asap.

See, I think this is the thing where people attach the success (or lack thereof) of a period of time with the shirt that was being worn. For example, I always thought, based purely on looks, this was a banging top. But it was the one we were wearing during that relegation season so everyone associates it with shit time. On the flip side, I'm not a big fan of the current top, but you know in the future it will be looked back on fondly because of all the good memories being made in it.
