Didn't spot this elsewhere, but there's a new deal that will result in BOTH the men's and women's team getting support from Experience Kissimmee, which will be sleeve sponsors (presumably ditching Snickers):

Experience Kissimmee, the official travel authority of Osceola County, Florida, is proud to announce a multi-year partnership with Brighton & Hove Albion FC (BHAFC), a rising club in England's Premier League. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in sports tourism and entertainment, offering an inventory of benefits and promotional opportunities.

Under this agreement, Experience Kissimmee has secured promotional rights as a sleeve partner on the men's, women's, and academy shirts, enhancing global broadcast brand visibility and engagement among Albion fans. Other key highlights of this partnership include cross-promotions with relevant travel trade club partners that will maximize outreach and engagement within the tourism and sports sectors.

Extensive media exposure will raise the profiles of both Experience Kissimmee and BHAFC. Brighton & Hove Albion are the 12th most-watched teams across all five major European Leagues, with a total TV audience of 195 million. In-stadium branded signage will ensure prominent visibility within the stadium, capturing the attention of fans and visitors. Additionally, legendary former players and current stars will be hosted in Kissimmee, creating unique experiences for players and fans on both sides of the Atlantic.

This partnership represents Experience Kissimmee's first-ever combined club deal in the English Premier League and Women's Super League, demonstrating a dedication to inclusivity and diversity in sports. The partnership highlights the shared values of both organizations in promoting family-friendly events, holiday destinations, a strong affinity for the United States, inclusivity, and global audience.

"We are thrilled to partner with Brighton & Hove Albion, a beloved English club in the UK," said DT Minich, President and CEO of Experience Kissimmee. "This collaboration is exciting for us, as the UK is the number one long-haul market to Kissimmee. Additionally, BHAFC's audience profile, which includes significant followings in the UK, Canada, and Brazil, aligns perfectly with our key international markets. This partnership reflects our dedication to providing exceptional travel experiences and engaging with fans globally."

Albion's head of commercial, Russ Wood said, "We are delighted to announce a new three-year sleeve partnership with Experience Kissimmee.

"They are an exciting partner with a worldwide presence and one we are proud to be working with. Our values and visions align, and with our significant presence already in the US, it is the perfect partnership.

"We are looking forward to promoting Kissimmee as a stunning holiday destination to our global fanbase, and hope many will have the opportunity to experience a visit."

Total tv viewership according to that press release. 195million people. I'd be interested to see the breakdown of country by country. I imagine a large percentage is Japan.

I tried to find the full list but could only find top spot which was Liverpool with 415m.
I wondered if it might have been down to opponent as well. We played some of Europe's biggest teams last season, both in domestic competition and European competition.

The part of me that still can't quite believe we're an established top flight team wonders whether people were tuning in for the big clubs and we just happened to be the other team :ROFLMAO:

I had a dream recently that fans organised a whip-round and paid for something this to appear on sleeves.

Oh well, maybe next time..

I wondered that too! Maybe the list is 10 premier league teams and Barca and Real. Then it would just be by virtue of being an ok prem team. The press release says we have a significant following in the U.S, Canada and Brazil. All of which is slightly baffling.
