CONFIRMED Major Sponsor unveiling - USG - Union Standard Group

[Ainsley Harriott]

Is it just me that thought this was a pretty odd way to do business - talk up a groundbreaking new deal before you've actually completed it?

The Blades Way

I may be a bit cynical here, but I wouldn't be surprised if, when it's announced, the figure will be stated as 'an undisclosed record seven figure sum'., meaning anything from £1,000,000 which is poor against other premier league clubs, up to £9,000,000 which would be mind blowing. I may be wrong!

Still watching...

Apart from this monstrosity

I can't seem to find the "Watch This Space" page now...... So either it's about to be announced or it's fell through.

"We've completed the deal, but we can't announce it because the shirt Adidas have produced needs a re-jig to make the new sponsor look right, so a formal announcement with photo holding up the new shirt has been delayed."

 

[Blade56]

Got a sneaky feeling that this release is being saved for today. Friday's seem popular days for releasing 'News'

We'll see

Might save it until news of the court case to dilute the outcome.

Well done. Saved another 23 pages of conspiracy theories and “incompetence” jibes.

100%. Just a shirt sponsor!! Biggest deal? Well obviously. Its been 12 years since we were in the premier league. TV money has gone up by 5x due to worldwide interest growing.

I think lufax would be best we could get logo wise, there are some reyt shockers.

Although lufax does sound like a physical messaging format for the shitter or a sms service that sends you facts about lavatories once a day.

Lufax, lu.com, or LU global all have bearable logo designs if they could change the colours to red, white and black would be fine.

You want LU on our shirts?

Really??

 

[Pollingtonblade]

Are they faxing the news?

 

[Sharrow Snuff Mill]

Are they faxing the news?

No, it`s being delivered by tortoise from China.

Don't know who they are or anything about them, purely going on aesthetic reasons. So if they're shady as balls then I don't know about it.

The fact they it sounds like slang for toilet is unfortunate but the minor embarrassment of having Teletext on our shirts in 2018 soon evaporated.

I think it should actually be LUBE because on occasions next season we are going to get a right shafting

Any chance you can get your record player changed?

It seems to be stuck

 

[The Crab]

From what I understand, unless you're a serious player in high finance services the name will mean nowt. For examplers I was told think along the lines of Tencent, Pinganfang and Lufax.....No, me neither!

they sound like scammers who have tried to favourite me on the dating site...............

It's actually pretty hilarious!!! One the other day who claimed to be 22, and the age range they wanted was 20 to 97. Talk about fucking obvious.....
