Mel81x 3,086 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 (edited) Read this today and found it a great read even if its about 2 years old. Don't know if anyone has ever posted this before. https://www.theguardian.com/news/datablog/2015/jan/23/the-history-of-global-economics-in-football-shirts-premier-league Are you happy with your current sponsor? What's one of the best sponsors you've ever seen on a shirt? My earliest recollection of Liverpool sponsors was Candy. I remember my dad watching them on TV and wondering why they had it on their shirts. Edited October 9, 2017 by Mel81x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Favourite ever is Walkers which is pretty much an iconic part of our history of shirt sponsors. Local company/brand and seemed to just fit perfectly on our shirts: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey 3,557 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Every Newcastle fan longs for the brown ale beermat being back on the kit. There was a rumour about it in the summer but more money came in from a random Chinese betting company (who by the way have a fucking awful and unfunctioning English website. Cashed out straight away). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas 3,311 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Thought I'd try something by listing a load of teams and then saying the sponsor that instantly came to mind with them. When I think about things like this, I tend to think back to Premier League days pre 2000's generally. Arsenal - JVC Aston Villa - Muller Blackburn - McEwans Lager Bolton - Reebok Chelsea - Coors Coventry - Subaru Crystal Palace - Virgin Derby - Puma Everton - NEC Leeds - Strongbow Leicester - Walkers Liverpool - Carlsberg Man City - Brother Man Utd - Sharp Middlesbrough - Cellnet Newcastle - Newcastle Brown Ale Notts Forest - Labatts QPR - Compaq Tottenham - Holsten Sheffield United - Laver Sheffield Wednesday - Sanderson Southampton - Friends Provident West Ham - Dr Martins Wolves - Goodyear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
