Favourite Sponsor

[HighfieldBlade]

I want us to have this

 

[Manuel Azaña]

Best EVER, sponsored football shirt.



Banned by the FA at the time.

 

[Tunstall Fred]

This one, though not SUFC has a double combination to make any Blade , maybe giggle.

Oh Dear!

Eric my old French onion, we know you are an established French international, but it has been snowing, do you mind if we do not sign you before we have seen you play on grass?

Erics reply is unprintable on a family forum.

Laver for me, poll needed.

 

[bongleblade]

Think it’s agreeable that Laver are our best ever sponsor...

Gets a lot more difficult post-2000, we have had some horrible ones to be fair. one thing I have found that is that often it’s the memories, rather than aesthetic that sticks with me.

Always been keen on HFS Loans kit for example - horrendous sponsor, amazing season

 

[guancheblade]

I’d forgotten about that shocker.

This also resides in the gallery of shame (not Porter though, who resides in the hall of heroes). Sorry John Holland Sales if they still lurk the forum...

Actually, it looked pretty sleek on the Adkins era away shirt




Teletext holidays the best by far, and also liked the Ramsdens Currency (on the away shirt only)

 

[Boxer Blade]

Easily the best shirt sponsorship in the history of Sheffield football is chuppa chups, hilarious, tell me I'm wrong

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

I always liked USG, sponsors of our Premier League winning season.

Midas was crap but they were big at the time. Not making anything with the huge appeal of a GTA 2 or Resident Evil but when you went to get a PS1 game, there were loads of Midas ones, they actually got a bit more upmarket too and released some decent games for PS2.

I think Gilder Group is crap, being sponsored by a car showroom rather than the manufacturer is a bit Poundland, but obviously the logo is nice enough.

They made that Chris Kamara Street Soccer game didn’t they? Where he is wearing the Blades’ shirt.

Aye



I nearly bought it from eBay the other day for the novelty value.

 

[Blade56]

I’m with Pittsburg Blade (yer fat b@st@rd ).

Though I’ve never drinks, or seen on sale, any of their fruit juices.

Similar situation with Elev8

We've had some shocking sponsors since 2000 though- Ramsdens were probably the best we've had in some time. Do Laver count as a post-2000 sponsor because they were our sleeve sponsors in the infamous Barnet match?

No distress in this photo at all! In fact, I love this photo! It's the ultimate here's what you could have had! If Wednesday had signed Cantona instead of Leeds they'd probably have won the league instead of Leeds.

“Simonds hacksaw Blades” is my all-time favourite.
