Demon Disciple 12,536 Posted November 20, 2023 Posted November 20, 2023 Up on the Melbourne FC website that Jaguar are leaving as co-principal partner, with an announcement on our new co-principal sponsor coming soon. Anyone heard anything about who this may be? 1 Quote

Straight Sets Simon 23,113 Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 Shocking timing to announce this, totally lost amongst the draft. Purely as a visual the logo on the jumper Hertz my eyes. 1 2 Quote
roy11 4,076 Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 As a result of Jaguar leaving I can confirm the next car I buy will NOT be a Jaguar. Purely out of respect to MFC and not due to my sad looking bank account aha 3 3 Quote
DeeZone 10,590 Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 Sad to see Jaguar leave but we have had a long relationship with Hertz and it is great that they have stepped up to Co Principal Partner with the mighty Dees. Great to see Hibbo and Neita in the add as well.😁😁 2 Quote

Jaded No More 68,976 Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 For all the fashionistas out there, yes this yellow logo is visually offensive, but you know what isn't visually offensive? Having a positive bank balance! 7 1 Quote

Its Time for Another 4,306 Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 Not that we'll ever know but wonder if this was Jaguar not being prepared to pay more than Hertz or them just deciding to not sponsor Dees anymore. Hope it's the former. I would imagine the cost of sponsorship is a lot more now than it was when they first came on board. 2 Quote

D Rev 635 Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 Not best pleased about this. Hertz has a very poor history in regards to ethical behavior, particularly in the way it has treated employees. You'd think that a club that has finished Top 4 regularly and won a flag could attract someone more in line with our own values. 1 1 Quote

Once the number is in the normal spot, it won’t actually look as bad as I thought. Rather not not be yellow, but that’s their brand and they are getting good exposure 2 Quote

You'd think that a club that has finished Top 4 regularly and won a flag could attract someone more in line with our own values. Unethical sponsors is the go-to for champion clubs. Collingwood has Emirates, KFC, LaTrobe Financial, and Nike. An all-flavours ice cream box of worker exploitation, dishonest finance, actual slavery, and fatbergs. I googled to check something about Emirates airlines; the CEO/quasi-owner is of course a son of the previous god-king of Dubai. "Ahmed's career in the aviation industry began in 1985 when he was appointed president of the Dubai Department of Civil Aviation (DCA). Emirates, the national carrier, was launched at the same time, with Ahmed appointed chairman." Love it. Pure Collingwood. He even married his cousin. 4 Quote

I have found Hertz great to deal with both here and in the U.S .Terrific service and always honour the MFC discount. 2 1 2 Quote

I think the purpose is for the logo to be an contrast to the club colours. It needs to stand out. That's why Hertz choose to sponsor us and not the tigers, where the logo would blend in. 3 Quote
