[Football] Premier League shirt sponsorship values 2018/19

[El Presidente]

Still the land of haves and have nots.

 

[Stat Brother]

As said before American Express appears to represent excellent value if the alternative is a load of Chinese script for a gambling site.

 

[Butch Willykins]

Chevrolet having another blinding year having sold 28 (Twenty Eight) cars in the UK in the last 6 months. Presumably all to Mancs.

 

[CorgiRegisteredFriend]

Bring back SKINT

 

[TSB]

Seems odd that Virgin Media are paying FOUR times the amount that Amex are.

 

[Bozza]

If those numbers are correct, our deal looks utterly shithouse.

However, it may be the case that if you're not one of the big names, don't have a Far Eastern owner who wants to peddle his Far Eastern wares and don't want to go down the gambling route, then earnings are far reduced.

Yep. Happy to have a shirt sponsor that is A: Not a gambling website, B: Real money rather than an FFP dodge from the owners and C: Not Angry Birds on the sleeve.

Unlike most teams, we do not look like twats.

Aren't we tied in for x number of years? However, I'm glad it's not some awful gambling site.

 

[Surrey Phil]

I’m dubious about the figures TBH. Given it’s tied in with stadium naming rights perhaps the figures are distorted?

 

[Bozza]

Probably, but there's no way on earth we'd not have included a "If we get promoted to the Premier League" clause.

 

[Silverhatch]

But the Amex relationship is very long term and multidimensional and includes much more than shirt sponsorship. We could dig but I’m sure the true value of the partnership will remain undisclosed

 

[Swillis]

I would rather we had Amex and not some gambling company. I'm glad that Bloom would not be involved in anything as distasteful as that.

 

[Change at Barnham]

45% of Premier League teams main sponsors are gambling companies. That's a bit worrying for society.

 

[Stat Brother]

Probably, but there's no way on earth we'd not have included a "If we get promoted to the Premier League" clause.

I doubt we had a 'we're 20th in the Championship and staring down the barrel of relegation' clause, and AMEX were still sponsoring the club, probably considerably more than our rivals for relegation.


Oh and thanks to the poster who originally made that point.

Very much so.

Personally, I'd like to see gambling companies prohibited from shirt sponsorship, much like booze and fag companies.

I would welcome this.

Most gambling companies deal in hoovering up money from the poor and stupid. If you know anything about what Bloom does then you'd get that it's totally and completely different. Probably difficult for you to grasp though, or maybe it was just another cheap and incorrect shot.

What about loan companies and credit card ones? Where do you draw the line ? I don't have a problem with it

 

[portlock seagull]

Quite like Amex as a Brand. Something rather familiar and gentlemanly about, must be because of old Alan and his ads.
