A new low from the owner.At first, I thought it had to be a pisstake, from Leeds fans
Not content with making us a laughing stock all last season, he’s now sending the players out on the pitch, and fans round Meadowhall dressed as pussies.
The look on the players faces, wearing it says it all.
There are some things you shouldn’t turn into a joke for money,and the famous red and white shirt should be one of them.
The definition of awkward will be the next time Wilder tries to talk to the players,about having pride in the shirt.

Absolutely nothing I said has anything to do with the logo being a cartoon cat. I couldn't care less about that part.

'We're hardly in a position to be fussy". It's 5 months since we last had a shirt sponsor. Crowdfund it then? Or get charities on board and allow a different one on the shirt each week if they're unable to commit to a longer term sponsorship?

There are 100s of better solutions than this. But nobody should care because you don't? We should "suck it up" and gratefully accept the fraudulent few bob they've thrown our way because some fans always believe we're 10 minutes away from bankruptcy.

They could've sold naming rights for Bramall Lane and no-one would've given a shit because all the stands have been sponsored for years anyway and fans wouldn't use it anyway.

This is a pure desperation move - the club isn't desperate, the person whose job is it to secure sponsorship is.

Very rare something like this bothers me but this is a total clown move and we're being laughed at.

Calm down pal.
 
Well, I thought it couldn’t be as bad as last year and I was spot on.

It’s worse, a lot worse

Crowdfund? How much is that going to raise?

I certainly wouldn’t give United a single penny just so the shirt doesn’t have a sponsor!
 

Well that’s the end of the “Let dogs attend matches” campaign down the Swanee.

As always with these things - its the design that cocks it up. Appreciate they've at least matched the colours - but a box sponsor like this rarely looks good - they'd have been better having the cat the same size as the lettering and sitting at the start of "Maneki" and made it a rectangular strip - would've been much easier on the eye

This version with Napoli is much better View attachment 195214

MSC is a cruise company. Nothing to do with the cat currency

Edit: I get what you mean now

I've no idea how much it would raise. Not a lot, I'm sure. But nobody seems to be bothered how much this deal is worth, so what does it matter?

Fwiw I'd keep it blank unless something worthwhile is found, or I'd donate the space to charities.

It might be a different story in the PL when the money makes more of a difference but not this.
