I think with the new ownership so keen to obtain B Corp status it's safe to say it won't be a bookies.

Id imagine it will be a company linked through AP or JS with their contacts in the business world.

In this day and age, a sponsorship of £200k is a drop in the ocean for most league clubs, and yes I know we currently arent in the top four leagues but if we have the intent to be promoted, we realistically need £500k a year to help the club. Give them as many signs as they want round the ground and naming rights of the stands.

If Docks have £200k lying around to stick on Town shirts then my theory that the sausage sarnies were a rip off will have been proven to be correct. We wouldn’t bin Young’s off for the same amount of money coming in anyway I very much doubt - we want to be pushing for half a mil at least as mentioned. We probably want to be getting a national/international company with good social media coverage to give us a bit of exposure while we’re still down here in football’s toilet.

As much as I like Docks Beers, I can't see it happening given there's a big push to remove gambling companies from football shirts.

I don't think there's a place for alcohol companies to be on them either (and I acknowledge they're much more than just the beer).

Well it could be worse

Lyon FC had   le69
AC Milan had POOH
Everton FC  had Danka it rhymed too well
Brighton and Hove Albion  NOBO

There's a football club in Peru that simply like to show off their club name on their shirts

We’re moving into the Asian market and are replacing Young’s with Yeung’s.


Man, could be a go between job in it for me.  Serious money over here.  It's book week and a local book shop had a stall at the school.  A kid rolls up with nearly 650 quid in an envelope.

When I played local football in the 80's, we were sponsored by Willy's Brewery. They had just started the micro brewery and had brewed a beer that they called Willy's.

The front of the shirt had a design of a hand pulled beer pump along the side. Across the top was the words Willy's Brewery and underneath the text said, "We like our Willy's pulled by hand".

The whole point of being sponsored by a company is that we give them exposure, not the other way around.
