is that you have been given a hammer and in the absence of any alternative tools, everything has started to look like a nail.

nice accent

or allowed is it? Against the law? City dont have their sponsor on the junior shirts.

Not sure about that, we are always active with our team and when they were uner 12s a wine shop sponsored us, we rang the RFL to check we could advertise on the back of the shirt and they said there was no problem..

I suspect it may be more to do with the club and the family values etc they want to promote, which is good imo.

Seems reasonable if Hugell knows the details of all the other clubs finances & sponsership deals they can't be all that top secret.

Bolton Wanderers, West Ham United, Hull City to name three professional sports teams sponsored by bookies have kids shirts with no sponsors, it was probably a compromise from when people were crying for gambling sites etc to be banned as main shirt sponsors.

wolves are sponsored by sportingbet...do there kids kits have it on?

Is 50 grand really one of the best deals in SL? Sounds like chicken feed to me

Proof?

Just had a look on their website and it appears they do, wonder what the ruling is on this and if it's just at the clubs discretion.

six-figure deal done, but you are right about one thing!! 50 grand is chicken feed

Proof?

It's only 6 figures because Hudge is counting the £ sign

£50,000

You gave your figure first, so wheres yours?

Now you know how Rovers got thier deal

Or £50,000.00

Crikey, it's a multi million penny deal

I reckon it's an 8 figure deal, Rovers are being coy:

£5000.0000

Hi Rob!



Haven't seen you on here for ages!

Been working hard?



You have!! 2 posts in 2 minutes! Umbrellas more the thing in winter, though, I suppose

IMO the sponsorless shirts (e.g. junior Liverpool, City etc) look better then the ones with sponsors - more of a retro look.

Going to be difficult to find any isnt it. Doesnt mean its incorrect though. I'd heard 50k from someone inside Rovers. Still, might be wrong though afterall Hudge has said 6 figures.

Its worth way more than £50k believe me. Its the second largest shirt sponsorship in Rovers history despite it only being for 1 year.

Whats the largest and how much was that, just for context?

Would have to be the Lloyds TSB deal for 2007/8, I'd guess, as the last time we were in the top flight before that a parnt o' marld cost 70p an' a bottle of red wharn were one narnty narn. Possibly.

Unless adjustment has been has been made for inflation.

Not a massive amount of competition, but if it is more than twice (per annum) what a pre-bailout L-TSB were paying it can't be too bad. £100k minimum, despite some of the disparaging remarks.

Edit: just noticed GG said [isecond[/i biggest - so ignore all of the above.
