Bye Bye Kingswood Group!

[STFC_Gazzza]

The club have cancelled their sponsorship from Kingswood Group after they went into administration hence why the kingswood thing is gone from the OS asa well as all the advertising boards in the ground. Hmmm wonder who our next sponsor will be? *COUGH" Betfair *COUGH*

[Fred Elliot]

Always on the cards really.

during the negotiations I heard they were laying people off left right and centre.

Sad for the workforce concerned.

Brunel next !

[Simon Pieman]

I doubt we would have got any of the £4k they owe us. Ho hum.

[janaage]

Brunel have a three year contract, might be slightly harder to rid ourselves of them.

[pumbaa]

I expect there are termination clauses in the contract. Will probably incur some costs though.

Although having said that, the previous mob probably neglected that aspect.....

Good job the Kingswood logo has almost gone from my shirt then. I'll stick it on a hotter wash to rid it totally next time. Shame for all those employed by Kingswood, but as a club were well rid of the sponsorship deal.

all depends on what the "deliverables" were in the contract.

Given the negotiating skills and priorities of the people who put the contract together I suspect the deliverables consist of "a bag of cash, used notes only"

I think it was a bit more than £4k -  irregardless of how much it is they're in breach of contract . I needed a bigger shirt anyway  

[flammableBen]

I'd like to see us being sponsored by White Ace. Or Guinness. Or Nintendo. Or Tampax.

[OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR]

So are we going to have plain red shirts until we get a new sponsor then?

A few years ago Rovers were sponsored by Bradshaw's Snack Box. Wednesday had Chuppa Chups and Scarborough (I think) were sponsored by Black Death Vodka. I'd be delighted with any of those.

[Fred Elliot]

Or Tampax.

I'll have words Ben

[flammableBen]

Good Work.

It would plug a hole.

  There wont be any boards taken now then.... I recall back at the start of 80's when shirt sponsorship started to kick in ,  Rochdale had their team photo with a player at the front holding a large  plyboard cut out watering can, bearing their sponsor's name the 3 in 1 Garden Centre.   It struck me as funny.....little did I think years  later with our gay little picket fences, we'd look like we were sponsored by the Argyle Street Garden Centre.

  I'm with Leroy from MoS.....Ron's Stores would do for me.
