how much is that worth then? And what’s happened to Vumo or whatever they’re called?

We have come a long way since having Draper Tools on our shirts. Not sure if it is better to be a Tool or a Virgin though.

I don’t like stadium branding, but if ever one fitted naturally it would be the Virgin St Mary’s Stadium. # saintsfc

On TSW they suggested it would be a controversial sponsor. Presume that is to do with Sky but can’t see much else that anyone would be upset by.

Just really glad its not Wonga or a betting company to be honest

So I assume we can now watch 4 Saints matches at the same time?

Ask Barry, he’s both.

I was hoping that Brewdog would be our sponsor. That way the club and Sotonians would be joined in another way…in your face Granty!

I genuinely think you’re onto something with these Brewdog cunts, Fatso. Look what I found in the Liverpool Echo.

A Newlywed couple cut their wedding reception short to go for a pint in craft beer barBrewdog .

Mark and Racheal Plant said their vows at St George’s Hall before a wedding reception at Alma de Cuba.

But the couple, who live in Carlisle, got rid of their guests early to go for a beer in the Colquitt Street bar.

Mark, 36, said: “I’m a big real ale fan and I couldn’t miss out on a chance to go to Brewdog.”

Worse still, they live in Carlisle. Sfcsim will be the next one to fall.

Looks suspect - reckon that is Bletch and her man? The blatent product placement give her away… I think we should be told

Nope he’s got more hair than Bletch

Oddly enough I was on the phone to Virgin Media today. We’re ditching the movies and sports for a bit, at a saving of 50 notes a month. I don’t like cricket. And no, I don’t love it, just supremely indifferent. It took me long enough to get into football, FFS. Geekdom and shitty bollocks take a hell of a toll.

The lovely Scottish lady says “it’ll take us 28 days to shut down your services”. I cheerfully remarked that they’d be on immediately if I upgraded. She chuckled.

I seem to remember, but I may be wrong, but they also make you commit to a specific period when you upgrade. I think it might have been a year when I upgraded to the Big Kahuna package.

Anyway. Virgin Media. The bad news is that they’ve got a really shit cancellation policy. The good news is that the robbing bastards should be loaded *

* We’re never going to get official recognition from the club, are we? :lou_lol:

You can’t know that! My theory is that bletch has reached the “fuck it moment” and that this dude will be king of the combovers in a decade.

Will be interesting to see how the logo will be incorporated onto whatever shirt design we get.

That was one of the best things about Veho, the black and white logo easily blended in. Not sure how Red on Red and White will work?

Getting rid of The Ginger Minger was a part of Virgin Media’s requirements to sealing the deal. They didn’t want the ginger cunt’s hair to clash with their red logo. Harry Reed mate, get a Romeu stylee head shave pronto!!

Somebody put these concepts up on twitter.

keep that shit to the shit kit thread.

I don’t understand people who make mock up kits. It’s like a child drawing her favourite princess outfit or dressing a doll up. Grow up, you fucking cocknuffins.
