I'd prefer to have no branding around the roof/ Newcastle sign. Everything else I couldn't give two hoots about.

I don't like stadium sponsorship generally especially old stadiums, but after 10-20years of it I'm desensitised to a degree

with us it was that it didn't benefit us in anyway and benefited a bloke deliberately hurting the club (what he made in sponsors is money the club was cost) - if SD sponsorship gave the club an advantage it would have been more tolerable, that it didn't and in fact was nothing but damaging to the club - was basically just defacing grafitti

I think the new owners seem to have a good understanding of what we’re about.

 

I’d be shocked if they replaced those with other signs, it’s an easy PR win for them

They did say they wanted to run the club as a business though, ultimately they are ploughing a lot of money into NUFC, stadium sponsorship would be too lucrative to pass up I'd have thought.

Let’s speculate about which logos replace them?

Newcastle Brown Ale!!!

[Stifler]

Why does there need to be a replacement sign?

 

Personally I’d put the screen there and take it off the window, because it looks fucking shot on the window.

They don’t need it though really. Culturally they’ll be sensitive as we should to them

For question 2, i voted no. But, i want us to replace it with maybe somehing more modern looking. Perhaps backlight on Newcastle United with the club badge.

So you should’ve voted yes then

Not important to revert back to the old font. Another font, another design for the new era,yes.  Keep the old font for the Keegan and pre-Asley era. If they keep the current one, i'm not going to lose any sleep over it.

That'll have been my wording at fault, particularly the use of 'returned'. At the heart of the question was 'should we get rid of the SD font.' I think you can change it if you click 'show vote options' and vote again, if you're bothered. 

[Dokko]

SD font has to go. It's an easy win for them. Back to old or something better. They also need to pick several prime locations for their branding and scrap the rest just so its visually cut down (for us) but still has the same exposure for cameras (and sponsor)

If they can’t get the font back to what it was, could comic sans be a viable alternative?

Based on what? The person creating it only having a Windows 95 PC?

There's next to no chance for this happening

 

It won't be any alcoholic sponsor or betting sponsor (only a matter of time before Fun88 are ditched and I for one will be glad about that)

Yeah I voted no for the same reason tbh.

 

It's not imperative it is changed, but if they asked me if I'd want it changed I'd say yes in a heartbeat.

 

Might just be the way the question was framed.

Fair play, badly worded.

Late 80's or early 90s? Definitely had it for the PL I would think.

Not enough for this

I’m not even sure he knows why he bought the club TBH. Got his money anyway, the lucky bastard. 

He lost a game of cards and his forfeit was to buy either us or Derby County.
