Or you can have it as credit or donate some or all to EITC. Our club showing, once again, the right way of going about things. Was sent out to all members apparently because I got one as well. Nice touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And me yesterday, I may email her back thanking her and asking if there’s any further news on my season ticket, this will be the third year coming up that I’ve heard nothing.

It's utterly exhausting and everyone is tired of it. I had to apologise to Palfy for mistaking him as this user. There's one bad egg but because this board generally leans left it gets tolerated. It just disintegrates into a slanting match because of the attitude of this poster. Sure people could and should handle it better but in the heat of the moment you engage and fall into the trap. It's no surprise that the board has gone quiet in general though. Football has stopped for a while and coronavirus takes up something like 95% of all news reporting Calm down Karen I'm sorry you can't hold a discussion without having to start a slanging match but that's on you. Go check who threw the first stone. As for the far left looney comment. The main thing I've asked is what policies do the tory party have to justify voting for them, when you know doing so will be at the cost of the NHS and people's lives. Don't see how that isnt a fair question? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very, very underwhelming from a perspective of international exposure for the club.

This is Everton I'd rather have Cazoo for half the revenue of a SportPesa all day (in this case we don't have to worry about that). The kids can finally have the sponsor on the shirt.

Financials aside, this is hardly a step forward from the club from a branding perspective. Totally understand that perspective but what is the solution? Why would a huge international brand want to spend 10m a year on Everton kit? They could headline a pro golf tournament or F1 race for that kind of money and get 10x the return on their investment they would from us. Our place in the table is in direct correlation to the brands we are able to attract. Also I wouldn't say the top 6 have these super attractive names on their shirts: Utd/City/Arsenal are huge brands sure, Spurs/Liverpool are financial services (had to google as the states are totally unfamiliar with AIA and StandardChartered), Chelsea is yokohama tyres. I'm not being a wise guy, can you name a few companies/brands you would like to see? DavisJD and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a bonus that we’re the only club with a UK company being the sponsor too if I read the link correctly. i do hope it’s only the name and not their slogan as well though.

Palfy Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 I’m happy we have a sponsor that can now be put on the kids shirts, I don’t know if anyone else had the same reaction, but my grandchildren who were Everton supporters, didn’t like the fact that there shirts were different from mine and the players. So it should please them that they will look the same as their heroes, and that is important for youngsters to feel the same as the rest of us. markjazzbassist, StevO and Matt 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
