If you say so but prior and now in this spat your perspective on some other fundraisers has been that of contempt. So claiming only a riposte to a single post that mirrors previously dismissive scorn is a stretch! You were selective also when responding to a jibe and ignoring the praise. So must have struck a nerve with you as you obviously did with myself as I simply dislike the dismissive tone of what is and should be seen as positive endeavour!
Other than the well thrashed out comments regarding your own club and Temple Street, I don`t recall being contemptuous of any fundraisers by any club ?Quote:

Did they announce during the week that they had a new sponsor?Quote:

Has Dalymountrower approved this?Quote:

No disrespect to bohs, but if Waterford have this on their jerseys, and forfeit a sponsor, do we all not have to look at ourselves and think
Waterford do have sponsor on the shirt albeit at the back of the shirt (Viking), obviously isn’t worth the same financially as the front of the shirt. But the 24/7 care on the front of the shirt is a brilliant gesture from club. Something that’s been received very well locally.Quote:

Is it really a case of Waterford forfeiting a sponsor though ? Is it not more a case that they couldn't get a main sponsor (or at least not one paying any decent money) so have rightly gone with this route instead, rather than leave their shirt blank ?Quote:

Its probably smart business two ways.
If they allowed a front of jersey sponsorship for small money it devalues every other layer of sponsorship , rear of jersey, sleeves , hoardings etc etc.
By going with a charity option this year it might mean next year they get a sponsorship that makes financial sense and better on a multi year basis.
In the meantime they get the kudos for supporting the community which might encourage more people to buy into the club.
Absolutely gorgeous

Shirt is nice, but the 'iconic partnership' thing is fairly cringy.Quote:

Yeah I don't get the reasoning behind that. Good thing I don't intend on walking around in the full kit then.Quote:

I don't think its bad at all. Its's always best to make final decision upon seeing them in front of you. I wasn't mad about our home and liked our new away from the pics I saw, when I saw both in reality I had the opposite opinion.Quote:

To be fair, I doubt that Cork have much control over that. They've probably picked a jersey template out of a catalogue and taken the only red shorts that Adidas have also.Quote:

Looks the same as the old one
Think the stripes at the top are different or maybe Im wrong on this.Quote:

That's it really..
Looks to me like Bohs are in the away jersey, and so are Derry?Quote:
