Dont shoot the messanger

[Steven Royston O'Neill]

Only passing on what I was told but if true, no reason to doubt it, it could be more trouble.

In the club shop before yesterdays game and a member of staff told me club in panic because Tombola have pulled out of sponsership deal.

New shirt release 2 weeks time and no sponser to put on, they are franticly searching for new sponser.

May be total bollocks but there you go.

 

[Chappaz]

if contracts have been signed I can't see how they could just pull out if they feel like it.

 

[Nads]

Like Chappaz says, you can't just 'pull out' of a sponsorship deal.#


I'd quite gladly not have that ****ing monstrosity accross the front of our shirts, as it happens.

 

[Steven Royston O'Neill]

I agree but what if they come along and say we cant afford it? Like I said just what I was told.

Yeah I miss the days of Brown Ale/Vaux. The rivalry was far more ... bitter ...

Then they would be sued for breach of contract and damages.

and knowing Quinn, would he do that and even if he did would it solve our problem, I would say no to both.

'my name's skalpel and i'm here all week'

Syd, we would sue, they are a gaming company, they make money, and they can still afford to sponsor that farm ****e.

 

[Mr-SAFC]

I don't mind it compared to BOYLESPORTS and their massive blue triangle slapped on the front of it.

I'd have the Reg Vardy back anyday though.

 

[Blind Corner]

If thats the case then Quinny should approach Nissan with a request for sponsorship

I 100% agree but Nissan will probably tell us where to jump, saying as though BM went with Vaux instead years ago (if memory serves me right that is)

 

[jerseymackem]

Well, I did 2 weeks work experience with HSBC and they said I was OK, that might be worth a shot...

Whilst Nissan would be class, as the city's biggest employers, and a respected worldwide brand, there's no way a car maker can afford to be pulling out cash to sponsor a football club in the current financial conditions.

I'd love them to prove me wrong on this like.

Good shout mate, I would love to see that happen.

A definate no no would be Gregs

Ellis Short's company, Lone Star Funds

appears to be at odds with the Japanese Govt, so I doubt 'Nissan' will sponsor the club in the "SHORT" term !!

Nissan wont becasue their workforce is 50/50 Sunderland and Newcastle and like Catterpillar in Peterlee they dont want to favour either club
