Think it remains pretty still but gives a bigger picture of the pitch for Bullen and the coaches. For next week, we really need to be going to Cove and turning them over. They don’t look pretty great and if we go away from home and get a big win it’ll do wonders for confidence. Hopefully get an imminent this coming week as well. Don't really know too much about Cove tbf apart from i'd imagine they'll be much tougher to beat at home... still should beat them though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Coves results suggest they aren’t up to the speed of the championship yet so we really need to capitalise, especially on the away games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B&W TV Boaby Sub sponsor announcements Aye, those sponsor announcements are annoying. Good for the sponsors but annoying for those at the match. Edit: To be fair the sponsors pay for it and its £200 to sponsor a player. I'm tempted to sponsor the Ghost 'Bangala sponsored by Trogdor the burninator'.

Player sponsor isn't anything new though, if they did it once with each player then ok but it's like watching a movie on that freevee and it suddenly cuts to an ad. Takes you out of it a bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calayrdonia Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 If you sponsor a player, you get your name in the programme for every home game and you are named on the website. You also get a match worn shirt from the player. I think that's plenty. Announcing it during a substitution is extremely clunky, cringe and just a bit over the top. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AYRSHIRE_ANGUS Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 I was at Barrow v Bradford last weekend and at half time they went through the entire squad and who sponsored them. There was barely time to announce anything else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They advertised it as a perk of sponsorship though. It makes sense if you are a business but the majority of shirt sponsors are fans. if I sponsored a player, I’d be mortified if they read out my name. I’m sure there is an opt out if you didn’t want it, but it would have to be an opt out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lochwood Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Seenhighlights and Musonda gets caught flat footed at back post for oreilly to score should never happen he is a good 6 inches bigger than him most certainly should be winning that game on clear cut chances, good crowd in also so a chance to build on the two thousand if we win in Cove, and if we get a couple of players in a striker and midfielder it could push the crowd up for the Dundee game although being on the box could lessen that. listening to Bullen and he’s now saying they have to be the right type who will fit in, for me he is talking himself out of signings so not hopefull. It will only take a couple of injuries and we will be right in it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it’s not what professional clubs do Maybe something they are trying in football that is being done every game at professional Ice Hockey teams throughout the UK and it’s believed to have increased people willing to sponsor ( mostly companies ) and they tend to charge a bit more for the sponsorship, I believe this season it cost £25 more than last season to sponsor a player Sponsors present their top to the player pre season starting and the player presents it back at end of season All player sponsors name read out at every game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevep56 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 (edited) I have been a player sponsor for a number of years now. I decided to do sponsorship as I lived overseas and it seemed a good way to contribute to the club. In previous seasons, you got to meet your player near the end of the season at an event in the bowling club. You were also given a shirt signed by your player.. This season there were some changes in addition to the above. The main changes seemed to be handing your player his shirt at an event at the start of the season & having your name mentioned whenever you player scores a goal or is a substitute / substituted. TBH as an individual sponsor, I am not really keen to have my name announced. Fine with it though if others want their name announced and it it attracts more sponsorship. I can see that it may be a benefit to businesses, etc. Thinking about it though, I would not mind if my name is mentioned 20-30 times this season when my player scores... not too bothered about the substitute bit though.
