I notice that our nutritional partners are the match day "sponsors" for fev.
Our commercial team need bloody sacking....no sponsors to speak of on the shirts and a list of partners who we then announce as "matchday" sponsors.
We need revenue streams other than Hughes...

Not really much more to say on this. On the face of it we have less (in terms of numbers and one supposes value) sponsors than last year and have not retained any (many?) sponsors from last year. So let’s hope lots of work is going on to ensure next season we get back to where we were. What it says about PL as a draw to corporate/sponsors also appears problematic but maybe it’s a blip. Let’s hope so.

I see one our past sponsers Selco have a 3 year shirt sponsorship with Salford. I have also seen Bata Card on a SL club shirt.

I’m working on the basis we are moving to a more local base of sponsors- we just haven’t got there yet. Look out next year for Broncos as sponsored by Mercur Slots of Tooting Broadway and Fat Al’ Burgers Plough Lane.

Mmmmm....tasty

Felt a bit thin on the ground in terms of outlets in the fan park yesterday. Couple of vendors missing, including the coffee business that is incidentally also one of our few shirt sponsors. Kind of odd for them not to be there for a home league fixture, unless they felt there was a better opportunity to make some cash elsewhere.

I saw it the other way around and noticed whilst they had a face painter bouncy castle and the pizza van, none seemed to be doing much/any business. Beer was selling well but I got the sense the Fev fans who were in attendance didn’t fancy £10 a pop for food and who can blame them. Also lower numbers of kids in attendance despite decent sized crowd. Buck and Dusty still doing their thing and I felt the interacted with the crowd as well as could be expected. The bottom line is getting our crowd size up, and up to the levels that make PL a justifiable expense, are really tricky and the shambles at the start of last season was really, really counterproductive and was always going to be if they had but allocated a moments thought to it. We are in desperate need of some strategic thinking or a big slice of luck. Perhaps a trip to Wembley in the 1895 might be a catalyst?

Despite being a tenner a pop the pizzas are pretty good.

Yup had one a few weeks back thought it was fine. Not a massive fan of pizzas but my son wanted one so I took the plunge as well.

Is it a surprise that the club lack sponsors ? When they do get them, they fail to give much in return.
Hardly any mention on matchday. No programme to promote them in. So why would an organisation bother.
As an example Dacia came on board making a car available to the club, when we were at Ealing.
A bit of a mention on SM, when the car was handed over. Pictures of Dacia staff and Lobster, who incidentally looked like a tramp in those photos. That was it. I cannot think any effort was made to promote Dacia. The car that was loaned was often left, quite dirty.in the car park,
Why would they bother renewing the deal? Yet much could have been done to give the sponsor some value for their investment.
But then this is the Broncos ! I am probably wrong to expect anything else.
