Shirt Sponsor

I think an organisation that fits in with the family values that Villa has would be best for the sponsorship. Genting isn't a good fit with our ethos - I thought we got with of 32 Red because it was Gambling. So won't be sorry to part company with them.

 

Acorns was the best one we've had and we should bring it back. If we have to have a commercial sponsor then I like the idea of Cadbury's, Cross Country Trains, Jaguar Landrover, Tata Steel, Seat - it's very difficult to find an organisation that fits the values of Villa though.

Values of villa?? It's a money business and we go with whoever offers the most. If dug deep I'm sure dirt could be found on most companies so they wouldn't fit with villa "values"

There are some things that are worth more than money. The respect Villa gained by having Acorns is evident - doesn't this then make Villa a more attract proposition for other companies and therefore attract more money anyway? They'll all want a slice of the good PR and to be associated with the good things Villa do with Acorns. Personally I would bring Acorns back on the away strip, sell the home sponsorship and look to emulate Man Utd by getting sponsors for the training kit, social media etc etc.

It will be another totally random company again that takes us out of the blue. I would expect another random online casino or gambling operation; with so much interest in the PL in the far east that's where the money lies.

I distinctly remember Clive Tyldsley bigging up Barcelona for having UNICEF and saying you'd never get a Premier League team doing that.

He said it the second year we had Acorns. What's the point in doing it when the media and pundits view your team as someone that Man United and Liverpool have to play twice a season?

I would be completely amazed if it isn't like the above post suggests!

being against gambling, i disliked 32red and genting, i agree it should be either family orientated or large local business minded

 

Cadburys and JLR are both good calls

Like a few other posters on here, I'd love to see a local company sponsor us but its bound be another gambling company.

I agree too that a gamling company is cheap, basically because we don't get much from them anyway. I'd rather have 3M from someone "nice" compared to 4M from a betting company nobody has ever head of, especially when the TV-deal is going to get us a lot of cash this summer. But who am I to judge, 4M is always better than 3M for the finance people at the Villa and rightly so.

In reality I care far more about what we're ge££ing from the company than I do about who they are. As long as it's not Nestléguns000.gif

I think we should go for Red Bull or something like that.

Maybe a car company - Jaguar or Rolls Royce.... Could be fun.

Is it even definitely changing this season? I thought Genting were going to be with us a few years?

Jaguar Land Rover please

Great global brand made in Solihull

 

They could put different stuff on different shirts, Defender written on three or four shirts, Discovery written on Tekkers shirt.

 

I'm struggling for the others I'll be honest.

Against the rules iirc

Red Bull would probably want to rename the team to Red Bull United :D
