ExiledAjax Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 1 hour ago, RoystonFoote'snephew said: Ideally I'd like a Bristol company, or at least a Bristol based company or major local employer as the shirt sponsor but can we get the return we're looking for. There are lots of great tech companies in Bristol but probably not big enough. Airbus, Cameron's Balloons or Aardman would be good. Our old shirt sponsor Lancer Scott are Bristol based aren't they? Downgraded to just sponsor the Atyeo now but maybe could come back. I'm with those who strongly dislike Dunder as our sponsor. Not only is it a grubby online casino but as many have pointed out it looks and sounds shite. I'm not buying a shirt whilst their name is on the front. Fully support all calling for gambling advertising to be reined in. Where I live gambling is flat out illegal, nothing. Even foreign websites are blocked.* There's no advertising anywhere for it. Does anyone complain? Anyone miss it? Have I died without constantly seeing the disembodied head of Ray Winstone. No, it's barely ever mentioned. *Of course it goes on underground and through VPNs.

Laner Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 As Banksy is a City fan (or so we've been led to believe) wouldn't it be great if he could design our playing shirt as part of a sponsorship deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the brutal way they were treated by Ashton when Dunder came on board despite LS having another 2 (I think) years left on the contract I'll be amazed if they wanted to sponsor the shirts again.

Lanterne Rouge Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 I`ve heard it said regarding other two club cities that local businesses are reluctant to sponsor one for fear of upsetting fans of the other. I think it went back to a study many years back when Spurs fans were asked if they would buy JVC products and Arsenal if they would drink Holsten. The results in both cases were overwhelmingly no.

You can understand Bet365, 32Red - the names pretty much describe the business, but Dundee remains a mystery! I thought it was a small village near Croscombe, Shepton Mallet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brand affinity is important these days and McGerrard strikes me more as a Scherzinger kinda guy than a Winstone one. WTAF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted July 25, 2020 Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 19 hours ago, Stedge said: I really want Showcase cinemas. Any business that is willing to sponsor a drinks break is a winner with me. Given that the Lee Johnson tombola regularly saw millions of pounds worth of talent left out, maybe a Showcase deal would give us that sort of experience but with Dolby sound, we just replace the tombola with cinema priced pick n mix.

Gifford Posted July 25, 2020 Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 We could share sponsors (Too Good International) with Bristol Rugby. The only problem is if we have an awful season it’ll look as silly as the Trillion Trophy Stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristolcitysweden Posted July 25, 2020 Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 Swedes behind the company and Dunder means Thunder. From what I have heard the main reason for the sponsorship is poor golfing facilities in Malta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that is why Polar Insulation sponsor both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
