I see Paul Barber mentioned Sleeve sponsorship in his Argus interview. Presumably this is like an additional badge type sponsor.

How will Nike cope with that?

Whack the Burger King badge on the shoulder?

Players to wear sponsored garters, bracelets and headbands.

I believe that the shoulders are required for another badge next year...

I reckon before we know it, the Albion team shirt will resemble a cub scout jumper, with all the badges sown on everywhere!
Sponsored left back......:)

I have no problem with the South American teams shirts, shorts and socks, does it really matter? Involves more commercial organisations in a club, generates more income and means there's far more chance for humorous sponsors appearing on rivals shirts, shorts etc!

We have added time sponsored by watch religion. I'm amazed we've not had injury breaks sponsored by Deep Heat and Yellow Cards sponsored by Clintons.

Is all that extra kit sponsoring allowed in the Premier League, don't see the teams in there wearing quite as much as in the Football League?

It's a matter of time before kits resemble F1 racing suits.

Are there any others that aren't all that bothered by this?

It's a reality of the modern game, sponsors are going to want to throw cash at us for at least a season, we'd be daft not to take it (despite it being a little unsightly).
