Why aren't the sponsors read out by cleggy anymore after the player scores? Another little bit of the community feel lost.

Certainly since coming back on board since January, I've seen a number of things commercially which have fallen down thanks to the previous CEO.
I really hope that everyone can give the present board the chance to put things right this summer with regards to things like shirt sponsorships.
We are trying to pull an event together for such sponsors as we feel it absolutely right to do so. The previous CEO made promises to sponsors that are still only coming to light since January. Some of these revelations are detrimental to the club and we hope existing sponsors can and will work with us going forward on these.
We are looking to do a summer event for shirt sponsors as we certainly appreciate what you are doing for the club.
Jeff

Just a quick one all.
Currently heading down the ground to organise the kits ready for handing out. At the moment weve been working on hosting an event at the club one night in May (on a non school night) so everyone can come down, have a bite to eat and a drink (or two). I'm awaiting a date to be confirmed with D&A but hopefully (fingers crossed) will have this confirmed tonight so I can get in contact with everyone of our sponsors today/tomorrow to confirm the finer details.
Thank you all for your patience, its been a bit "off the cuff" trying to get this organised to this point. But I wanted the club to do at least something to say sorry for the lack of communication on the sponsorship side and to also show we are trying to do things differently, and better, going forward instead of just asking people to pick up their kits as and when.
Once again, I can only apologise for a lack of communication this season (and those before) but I hope to get in touch with you all in the next couple of days with finalised details for the event.
Any problems please drop me a PM.
Kind Regards
Alan

Also trying to organise some Effin event for you but I'm waiting for a date from them cretins at D&A The club are p155 poor at communicating to you deadheads and none of you can be arsed to do anything about it either. So it's up to me. Regards Al

I sponsored Craig Mahons away shirt. That’s all I can say. I bet Ian Rush’s shirt from the All Star game is dirtier !

Great work Al. I won't be able to make it due to location but I applaud you on this and hopefully it will inspire more people to get involved with sponsorship.

Havent had anything Al. We sponsored Jimmy Soul this season just gone. Don't really want Jims socks or anything, but just to tell you that the list seems to be incomplete.

Just curious as to why you've sent them now? We don't have any players for next season yet (with one or two acceptations), will you be sending the information out again when we make the first signings under the new manager, I think you'll see a bigger up take then rather than now.

Its an invite to a kit sponsors event where people can pick up their kits, have a bite to eat and a drink and for us to have a chance to say thank you for people's support over the past 12 months.

Yes - sponsored a player for my brother's birthday. Was assured by the CEO that we had secured the sponsorship weeks before the season began - and I confirmed by email. Turned up for our first home game (we are Exiles in London) to find that there was someone else sponsoring the home shirt as well. No communication or notice - to be honest my brother was a bit upset as he had been told he had got the sponsorship for his favourite player.
No communication before, during or since.....
And yes of course we would think about doing it again but if you can improve the experience AI then that would make it easier!
Over the years we have sponsored a few players and to be honest being notified of the arrangements about collecting the shirt the exception rather than the rule.

Great work Al - looking forward to it. This sort of communication is exactly what we've been missing.
Any chance we can get the CL final on 😂 I'll bring my fire stick if the club doesn't have BT...

Ha cheers fella. Its all been a bit off the cuff as I was planning for the packages for next season when I started this thread and then had the realisation about the event for this season. So it's all a bit 'off the cuff' this time around just mainly due to time and that. Hopefully we'll have a manager by then to invite to the event and have a natter with and present the shirts to everyone attending the do, thats my idea behind it anyway.

Quick Update.
Thanks to all those people who have responded so far.
Still waiting for a number of replies so I will be sending a follow up email this week to those yet to respond either way.
I've informed the guys at the club regards those who cannot attend and what we have agreed regards collection/delivery details.
Thanks everyone

Quick one,
Just a quick thank you once again to all those who have replied following my email last week. I've sent a quick reminder to those I've yet to receive a response from so anyone who has sponsored a kit this last season can you please check your emails?
Those who have indicated they wish for their kits to be delivered via the post, I hope to have them sent out next week and will send out a confirmation email to each of you to confirm when they have been dispatched.
I have a deadline of the 18th May to let our caterer know final numbers, so any replies before then would be greatly appreciated!
Apologies if I have missed anyone.
Kind Regards
Alan
