    Alpari Forex...never heard of them, but according to today's Daily Fail we are about to agree a £2.5 million a year deal with the on-line foreign exchange traders.

    I couldn't give a forex...:grin:

    Shirt sponsor close for QPR

    QPR, who have returned to the top flight with no shirt sponsors despite all the commercial contacts of their F1 connections, are close to agreeing a deal with on-line foreign exchange traders Alpari Forex for around £2.5million-a-year.

    The club had failed to secure a kit deal throughout the summer because of the unrealistic prices they had been quoting and the uncertainty over the ownership.

    Coincidentally, new QPR owner Tony Fernandes’s Air Asia company sponsor Premier League referees.

    how much is the referee sponsorship
    2.5 for all the prem exposure seems cheap.

    For a newly promoted team £2.5m not bad. Arsenal get £5m from Emirates, Fulham I think £4m. Only Citeh and United get stupid money, Citeh in very dubious circumstances.

    So do you think we will be pleased or non-plussed at the new sponsor, CB?

    Not a massive name, the deal is on par with other premier league teams of our size.
