no balls Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 So, I ask again, people with a gambling addiction, are they not vulnerable? Sanctamonious patronising cunts. Quote

Smiffs Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 I can't see us having a host of sponsors lining up personally They don't always have to approach you. You go out and find them. You play one off against another, creative marketing. You don't sit there looking at the phone, tapping your fingers on the table. Quote

You don't sit there looking at the phone, tapping your fingers on the table. I would imagine we don't just sit at the phone. I would imagine being a small club this is the best offer we got Quote
Traf Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 good lord. https://www.change.org/en-GB/petitions/bolton-wanderers-football-club-reverse-the-decision-to-allow-the-club-kit-to-be-sponsored-by-quick-quid# Not reading that, there's enough shite spouted by twats on here to keep me occupied. Quote
no balls Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Dan makes a very good and well thought out comment. Quote
Garrp Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 The only thing that makes us look small time is 'us' having a fucking petition about our shirt sponsor Blackburn, Blackburn, rargh rargh rargh Quote
tomski Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 The only thing that makes us look small time is 'us' having a fucking petition about our shirt sponsor Blackburn, Blackburn, rargh rargh rargh Have to agree pal, it's very cringeworthy. Not really an important issue in the grand scheme of things. Quote
Smiffs Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 I would imagine we don't just sit at the phone. I would imagine being a small club this is the best offer we got I didn't say they were. What I am saying is its a measure of how far we've fallen but I bet the men at the top are still pulling Premier League salaries for Pub League marketing performances. I'd bet you a Dawsons Pie if there was a 25% commission paid out and £10k a year wages, someone would find a better deal. Quote
Danny G Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 I wonder how many of the folk who have protested have signed up to the loans without reading the small print and had their fingers burned! Embarrassing. Quote
Bigtoe Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 I'm probably split on this One side of me says im not that arsed, but I can see the opposite view, but its a bit less full on than boycotting or burning my grundies. I think a family, community club, if that's what they want to be, like ours should think about what image this kind of sponsor brings. If there is only one option to pick from for sponsorship its an easy decision to make. Like smiffs says it does make us look tin pot. Quote
Carlos Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 We don't know how the process works and if it's an auction so a decent company may have bid 3 quid less and we fucked them off or there's no other bidders. Who knows and Garty is about as trustworthy as Fat Sam's accountant. Quote

Leyther_Matt Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Looking at that Championship list, QuickQuid are in the Champions League spot in terms of profile (admittedly not exactly for the right reasons) in comparison with some of the others. As posted earlier in the thread, you can dig up shit about virtually every company in the world, and I certainly don't remember such a commotion about us being sponsored by a betting firm. Yes, it does make us look a bit tinpot but as mentioned it's not that bad in comparison with the rest of the league, and if it gets us the best deal possible in the market then go for it. I'm not exactly expecting a riot outside the Reebok when it's confirmed, but there are 24 hour column inches to be filled, so we'll look REALLY tinpot when the press picks up on the 'protests', even though it's seemingly only a tiny proportion who are particularly arsed about it.

M G WHITES Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 (edited) Must admit, I couldn't tell you who sponsored us last year 118 bet or 188 bet Me neither and tbh i dont care.Loan Sharks are wankers but people are making mountains out of molehills imo Edited May 28, 2013 by M G WHITES Quote
Horwich Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Season after this will be tinpot..we will end up with loads of those shitty ads all over shirt Quote

leigh white Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Blackpool had trouble with this brand in 95 when they had the Rebbecca's of Southport & Preston, before it got changed.http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL676/13442453/24332792/406773884.jpg[/img]"]http:// Quote
Mounts Kipper Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 This is the biggest load of bollocks ever, cannot believe anybody raises an eyebrow, this company are legimate and legal and will be governed by financial law and no one is forced to lend off them it's your own personal choice. We're beginning to sound like whining scousers. Quote
