Thingy 36 Posted June 10, 2021 The sponsorship 'mistake' has now actually reinforced the clubs good image and so now be more attractive for brands to align themselves with the club. I hope the club doesn't wreck it by having another betting company. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norfolk Mustard 94 Posted June 10, 2021 I just posted this comment on Twitter: Well done @NorwichCityFC - awareness is now sky-high amongst potential sponsors that #ncfc have an advertising space for sale on the front of their Premier League shirts! Honourable applicants only this time please... (No such thing as bad publicity and all that?!)... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canary Wundaboy 1,359 Posted June 10, 2021 Alternate view: We've cancelled a contract after just a few days and wasted probably several weeks/months of negotiations, after having terminated the previous contract early in favour of this one. The basis of the cancellation owes nothing to the contracted parties actions as part of that contract, instead based on public outcry over some marketing conducted by an affiliate in a country halfway around the world that contravened no laws in either country, and was wholly suitable for consumption in that other country's market. We could be seen as an unreliable business partner, as being cowed a totally unreasonable and disproportionate fan outcry, as now demanding unnecessarily stringent rules around non-NCFC marketing activity across the globe. Not saying this is how it will be viewed, just suggesting an alternate scenario from the rainbows and unicorns currently being thrown about demanding how companies could fail to see us as an amazing opportunity. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most people take that to mean capital in return for equity. Sponsorship is not 'investment', its the club providing a B2B marketing product.

Investment and revenue streams at Norwich comes from many avenues. I imagine all entities that want to be associated with us will probably consider now if they meet the purity test else they have stories of how unethical they are plastered all over the internet.

BroadstairsR 2,167 Posted June 10, 2021 (edited) Where's Barry Scott when you need him? He's always very focussed upon the sqeaky clean. Cillit Bang as sponsors? Not really "bang" can be seen as a rude word these days. Can't have that. Edited June 10, 2021 by BroadstairsR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greavsy 2,415 Posted June 10, 2021 Another point is, would another sponsor want to come, knowing they are publicly second choice? Gives them a way in for a lower offer too - knowing the situation we are in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Monty13 2,234 Posted June 10, 2021 This seems to be a very naive take to me. There is a chance that a company may see value in aligning with our values, however considering we just trashed them before walking it back not sure we are a great proposition. As others have said the main sponsors of football clubs are some pretty crappy brands and areas of business. They are not going to be overly attracted to us given why and how we have just reneged on a contract. Its the right decision IMO but we can’t ignore the optics and consequences. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
