villa4europe Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 (edited) Any news on who our 2nd shirt sponsor is? and if we've kept our link with acorns? Edited June 28, 2016 by villa4europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyexists Posted June 28, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted June 28, 2016 I wonder how the Resorts World sponsorship will work, will it just be a; we show their name at the ground and they show our name at the complex? Or will it be a more intensive marketing thing? A wait and see job I suppose. It might be good to open another AV store there though, it's got great international links as its by the NEC (or whatever that's called these days) and the Airport. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's just marketing benefits for both sides. Resorts World will get more popular with Villa fans because of the offers and Villa basically get free marketing. Seems like there's already a designated Resort World rewards site for Villa season ticket holders. Edited June 28, 2016 by meme 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be brilliant for Resorts World. It really needs some more exposure. Its a great little centre and if Villa can help drive people there it will help both parties and my job !!!!

Based on the kit we aren't having one likely because we aren't planning to be in the league long. It's likely a lot of work setting up deals with sponsors when if all goes well they wouldn't be a sponsor next season. So maybe we'll seek one out if this season in the Championship isn't a breeze but right now it seems the club are being respectful to the Championship but are also expecting to win the league if not come second.

useless Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I read an article translated from Chinese to English that seemed to suggest that Vicvilla and a certain department of Birmingham University are going to work together, on formulas for the energy drinks, or whatever it is they're making.

This does mean I'll no longer be driving to VP, what is public transport like these days? I'm walking distance to the cross city line and that runs every 10 minutes to Aston on Saturday afternoon. Sunday's are annoying at every 30 minutes and evenings runs until 11 but can still get me home so all good! Depends where you need to get to but buses and trains into town means should be reachable from public transport from near enough wherever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
