We've re-signed with Dafabet as the club's official Asian betting partner.

Isn’t LoveBet Asian?
This confuses me

So is that going on back of shirts ?

These announcements that have happened over the last few days it seems like something is happening at board level.

Not allowed advertising on back of shirts so at least it won't be there.

I know but it is just getting what they can get I suppose. Shortfall on the LoveBet deal so filling in with this.

Not necessarily. I remember seeing a job advertised for someone to expand our commercial partnerships so i'd take the recent activity as part and parcel of someone trying to hit the ground running.

Coming soon, Noodle partners, official ride-on lawnmower, and garage door partners.

Aye I'm probably just over thinking. Or are we becoming more streamlined ready for take over? Ticking boxes that the new owners want ticked...

Surely it's just normal sponsorship business at the start of the seasn? Not sure how Love bet will view another similar sponsor though. I guess there's nothing in the Love Bet agreement to stop it though.

I wonder what Dafabet is sponsoring? Oh, it seems like LED advertising in the ground and other community stuff.

Don't think there has been an appointment

Don't really remember seeing this amount? I'm obviously speculating, but this, that Stock investment thing from earlier, the streamlining of the video service/website etc. Tarting ourselves up.

Well if we are, that can only be a good thing? Just wish we (And other clubs) could wean ourselves off gambling companies.

Maybe all these things happened months ago, but somebody has just returned to work and catching up on all the emails

Iam sure they would if other companies were coming forward with acceptable bids, but I don't think they are

the More money coming in the better at this moment in time.

Maybe our infamous fax machine was in constant use and we were just waiting for a quiet period, like the end of the transfer window.

Just as Manchester United have decided that Regional sponsor/marketing partners are no longer the way to go - they find a better return from global partners - this is partly because everyone is at it, even the Leagues themselves (have a look at how many sponsors La Liga have signed up, it is mind boggling), following Manchester United's lead from over a decade ago -

I make that 3 betting associates now for our club - LoveBet (shirt). Ladbrokes (UK betting partner and Cricketfield stand - last year this season i think) and Dafabet (Asian betting partner)

Great news, seems we need all the income we can get.

I'm sure you're right but it's a bit hypocritical of the football authorities, not allowing players to bet, even on games they are not involved in, but they are happy to accept advertisers.

Of course, more importantly, it doesn't help gambling addicts either.

I must admit, the likes of Chelsea with a single mega sponsor doesnt half result in cleaner branding in their ground, whereas out variety of sponsor boards can look a little Football League at times.

It seems like someone on the board got confused when Dyche said he wanted all those "deals" completing.

From the United Perspective it is the cost of managing the partnership, public confusion as to who the partner is, tickets, player time and image rights, relationship managers, sales teams commission etc

What odds are Daftbet offering on Burnley making signings before deadline day?
