I don’t really understand your reply. What is a multi-national? NB, IG?

What's the issue? Too many sponsors on the guernsey? 

Ask Biskit he is the one whinging we have got an existing sponsor who has upgraded to our jumper for 2023.

I remember when we used to celebrate getting a new sponsor. I still do.

You still haven’t explained your initial reply. I’ll try to interpret meaning. NB already have enough advertising? I still have no idea whether you are for/against NB not having additional branding somewhere else on the jumper, replacing the spot they’ve lost.

i took your initial comment as branding elsewhere i.e. other than mfc

Remember when speculation about sponsors occupied multiple pages and threads here, as often we didn't have any?

Remember the forlorn, forgotten club hanging out for a lifesaver until a supporter drummed up a certain Russian tech group?

Remember Jimmy courting a potential, and not to be named or patronised, sponsor only to have it snatched away at the death?

Be grateful those times are past.

This I can live with.

I do, it was hard. Very hard. Often we would leave it right up until the eve of the season to secure a major jumper sponsor.

Much prefer the alternative.

So a fashion guru named "Biskit" is the sole judge and jury on our new sponsorship partner IG ( who prob has paid 1/2 mill or maybe even a $mill for the privilege) for their logo in the prime position in 2023. 

Let's  be honest it's small and is not any different really to the previous prime logo  sponsor NB ( New Balance).  It doesn't take over the jumper and is much more subtle than the Hertz yellow background.

Any one claiming it ruins the jumper or is out of line just wants to create  a big hoo ha has  not much else to grumble about. 

Our jumper looks good because of its red and blue heritage and our design and the more sponsorship we can gain far outweighs any pitiful grandstanding.

 

Meds time… someone needs to take a chill pill or ten. It’s a topic of discussion. 

And if you’re gonna take someone to task, at least spell their name correctly. It’s B-I-Z-K-I-T 😜

I don't care how the jumper looks.

I just want a flag at the MCG. Is that too much to ask for instead.

Mirror 'No you dont, and i never said that, you totally mis repesented me'

DL staggers into hall and looks in hallway mirror.

MCW

SorryBizkit apologies in your name error.

However MCW if you reckon because I replied to BiZkit why didn't you call him out with a chill pill also?

Threatened like a balloon ready to burst if the "good money for Club" line was used. Didn't like 2 letters changing on our beloved prime guernsey which looks great all the time! 

It's Ok to introduce a thread but not to have a reply back if it is virtually making a mountain out of a molehill. 

After all it's all about sponsorship $$ and we are the winners in 2023 and ongoing years. 

You must be pleased about extra chunk  of sponsorship has been secured for our future. 

Go Dees !! $$$

Uhm you misspelled my name (again).

It’s NOT MCW!

It wasn’t MCW six months ago when I hadda correct you, nor will it EVER be MCW!

Sheesh, now you’ve got me needing a chill pill or ten. 

BTW, I totally agree with you about the sponsorship $$$. And about us being winners in 2023. ❤️💙
GO THE MIGHTY DEES!!!

I'd just like to hear Clint's take on it because I'm legitamately not following.

Is it the logo? Is it selling out? Is it too many sponsors on the jumper? Is the company IG aligned with an evangelical group? What's the sticking point?
