I've heard rumblings it will be First Great Western, a local company, currently sponsors a pitch side advertisement at Readings Ground as well. Could well be looking to bang their name on a clubs shirt.

Surely Farepak Hampers would be more appropriate?

Yes, pretty appropriate.

Always late.

Need handouts to survive.

Catering is shit.

I heared possibly Honda

Ralphy would wank himself blind if that happened.

That rumours been going around since 1990.

Be brilliant if it was true this time..................

But I'm not holding my breath!

i really can't see honda wanting to sponsor us, they're an international company - what appeal will a smallish local club have?

this might also be a perfect opportunity to find sponsors for the back of the shirts and shorts as well. i hate the way it looks but if it brings money in...

Honda have got a really good opportunity here to promote themselves to a wider market.
I feel that if they turn down an opportunity to sponser the club they will be kicking themselves when they watch the Championship on a sunday morning, see the name off another company and realise that they've lost the opportunity to get their name to the millions watching telly.

Added to that, imagine the cachet of being linked to such a marvellous organisation as Swindon Town. :wink:

after honda's frankly bizarre advertising campaign about Swindon being some kind of tree lined car drivers utopia a couple of years ago, you'd think they would put their money where their mouth is.... (unless they realised that the whole campaign was rather laughable)

it'd be a nice end to a shitty saga if honda did come on board. anyone else notice the honda advertising board at the stratton bank end?  8)  :soapy tit wank:

he'll wank over anything i'm betting.

especially after Ash took him to a lap club in Swindon and blew over £200 in there

ooooooooooh yea, good ol' ash, i need a word with him... :evil:

I do't think so. Everybody has heard of Honda, and nobody will buy one just because they are on the Swindon shirt!

I think either of those would be good though

You'd be surprised R4E.

Who drinks Holsten Pils these days? But Spurs fans did because it was on their shirt.

I would be absolutely staggered if that happened. Not to say it won't though, as major car manufacturers have (and indeed still do) support clubs. Opel (GM) used to sponsor Milan, and IIRC Toyota currently sponsor Valencia - there were/are probably others - Aston Villa/MG? Its fair to say we ain't in that league!

You don't see Nissan sponsoring Sunderland, or Toyota sponsoring Derby County, despite both manufacturers having major facilities in those cities, ergo Honda with Swindon.

I would love to see it happen, but in reality, its more likely to be a local motor dealer than a manufacturer.

What does  :wink: mean? Eh? Answer me that!

I assume town will now be negotiating with two companies, as the secondary sponsor space (on the back of the shirt) can now be used.

Its not going to be honda.

I want "Dick Love's it", that'd be class.

Honda would be awesome.

Dick Lovett Ferrari would also be ace.

Oh my god ...its the start of Ralphys wank fest !

Got to be Crapper and Son

   Then players could have comparitive  shirts......crap, crapper and crappest.

I don't think you are taking this seriously now...

But in all honesty, that would be great! Make it happen Number 1.

Nice one chris! :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Millom

This is pure lies, Ralphy and myself would like to deny all knowledge of this happening.  Magic do you remebre when jimmy spread nasty lies about Paul D, he had to apologise.  As for leggett I have no idea what you mean mate  :D

I stand by Ash here.

I deny all knowledge of entering a lap dancing club.

How about entering a lap dancer then eh, Ralphy?

nah was too expensive!

 :roll:

Zurich maybe? seeing as the club already use their sports ground for training.

Zurich have sold it I beleive mate.

We have sold the land up there.  And there's little to no chance of Zurich deciding to sponsor Town, if they did I'd be over the moon, but very very doubtful.

Ash lap danced for Ralphy.  Ralphy wanked....   lots...  and then Ash charged him £200 for the pleasure....   :soapy tit wank:

So true.

Zurich stopped sponsoring the rugby premiership because it didn't fit in with their 'Zurich Basics' (fancy term for corporate culture) or something like that, so i don't think they're likely to sponsor a football team.

"Zurich basics", bloody hell, I never thought that phrase would ever grace the TEF.

:D  Wanky corporate jargon is great

Our sponsorship must be one of the longest serving in the Football League, surely? 1997-1998 so that's 10 campaigns.

It'll be odd seeing a STFC shirt without them.

I think this is a perfect time to get various sponsors (as Sonic said) but likewise it does look rubbish.

There's Z in all of us Jan  :wink:

"Because shit happenz"

You a fellow Zurich'er then Sam?

Capita now actually. We left all the dead wood behind.  :wink:

Capita eh, 'nuff said.   :wink:

Hmmm Capita... the company who messed up their DP checks :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Double penetration?  :shock:

yeah, they didnt check which hole
