Dream Shirt Sponsor

ŽižkovClaret · Post by **ŽižkovClaret** » Thu Jul 22, 2021 4:20 pm

We all know what many think of our current and recent sponsors, but who would be your ideal?

I think some internationally recognised brand, preferably with local links would be great, but i can't see the likes of Warburtons, or AMS Neve seeing the necessary value in it.....

Maybe someone with historic links to the town like Michelin, although anyone in a figure hugging football shirt might not be so keen on the obvious jokes

(Im excluding charity partners, as that just isn't practical without some benevolent billionaire stumping up the lost revenue)

Time to move away from betting firms so I would like to see one of

Benson & Hedges
Vodka
Moonshine
Burger King
McDonalds

Warburton family are all Bolton fans, so I doubt that would be a goer

Boo hoo would probably get as many complaints as betting companies do

I think we will have to put trust in the new owners for them to find the best deal out there.

Boohoo is a reasonable shout tbh in terms of sheer profile and cash available. They could have a different one of their brands on each shirt

I think “Pretty little thing” would raise a few titters amongst the away fans

Shoo in for the Women's shirts though with all the TikTok exposure?

Indeed. An oversight on my part, just thinking on the men’s team.

Has to be ' The Hut ' group. Their owner is a bit fan. I'd be knocking his door down to get on board.

I'd but up for Warburtons as shirt sponsors. I know they have some dough to splash around.

There is opportunity out there, following their Burger King deal ending, Stevenage have today announced Amazon Prime Gaming as their main shirt sponsor; not bad for League Two. I would have taken either of those two for Burnley.

Ford or Jeep. I know Man U get big bucks from Chevy, but I can't imagine we'd be asking for anything near that amount, but the company would still get a lot of views of their logo.

Edit: I really should stop watching The Grand Tour. Can't get cars out of my mind now.

Dream sponsor? What the heck is that? There is no sponsor that I would “dream” of having. I hate all these advertisers.

Always wonder why the big supermarkets have never sponsored teams ?

Waitrose used to sponsor Reading and I’m sure Tesco sponsored someone many moons ago.

Wizards Inc. (aka Hasbro games).

Owners of Dungeons and dragons, would help our wingers and we could replace VAR with equally reliable dice rolls.

As a Warburton I would love to see Warburton's as the shirt sponsor.

Like said above Warburton’s management/owners are all Trotters…. I really would be shocked to see their name on a Burnley shirt

It did say dream sponsor. And to be honest, I think most companies would make decisions based on their business value over their allegiance.

As we can't seem to escape betting sponsors, how about Waldron Racing?

Boo Hoo are Manchester based. They just happen to have a huge sweatshop in Burnley.

A fan group sponsor, with the names or images of some of our heroes emblazoned on the front of the shirts.
