    A bit odd they still wear the old kit with the old sponsor.

    When did the Murphys Environmental deal start? Was the deal one of those that started in the old winter season and therefore runs to June? That might explain it.
    Not odd at all as the people behind the murphy enviromental group were very good to Drogheda utd and remain friends with the club .They did a great job as a sponsor so the club had no probs keeping the logo on the shirt .

    Murphys dealstarted around the time of the 2005 Cup Final AFAIK , ended at the end of last season but old jerseys have been worn until now.
    Murphys are still involved in Drogs sponsorship , but not as shirt sponsors.

    Not a surprise, a very high profile sponsor was previosly badly burnt dealing them and has since apparently refused to get involved with others clubs here, dispite being heavily involved with other codes here and across de water!

    In fairness it was a drogs fan who said that it isn't a regular sponsorship deal and that it looked bad for the club

    Derry had great bother getting a shirt sponsor prior to the UEFA cup run. I know the club were looking at £40k at the time.

    Harps would have made a fair few €'s with their shirt sponsor draw. I'm surprised Drogheda didn't go down this route.

    Anyhow, fair play to them for putting a charity on the shirts. There are plenty of clubs who would have held off looking for the money whilst having nothing on the shirts.

    Ah sure ndrog, the next thing is they'll be denying carrying the Nissan logo for a year to hide the fact that Nissan told them to bugger off for breach of contract when Dolan was sacked.

    It is a joke of a "sponsorship" that makes a laugh of the League of Ireland with Drogheda wearing that logo on their European kit...more like a pub team...and the kit is awful too in fairness....

    Absolutely, I'm still laughing at Barcelona and La Liga since they had the Unicef logo on their shirts.
    We're not arrogant, we're just better.

    The Spanish FA didn't have to bail Barcelona out with a little donation on behalf of UNICEF.

    The contract was negated when Hibernian were added to the back of the jersey

    Told you they'd deny it

    An EL club put a charity on their jersey and the langers have a pop.
    How is life in the bottom half of the league anyway?

    The charity case seems to you, since the FAI are supplying you with sponsors.

    Woeful, beginning to fear we might end up outside the top four for the first time in over a decade and as long as I've supported City. I don't know how you stuck it all those years.

    Wait, did you?

    You think a shirt sponsor would have an imput into who the manager of the team was I didnt think you were the type to believe every random rumour you heard, regardless of how ridiculous it is.

    We are well aware of the **** up that caused our sponsorship with Nissan to be cancelled. Imagine....it actually related to something the sponsors would have a say in-the layout of the jersey.

    .
    Not only was the manager mentioned in the contract but also a member of your management committee.

    Don't give a toss if you don't believe me because I know its true and the lads in Mother Hughes met one of the individuals concerned last year who confirmed it.

    Ask Brian Lennox if you don't believe me.

    Now - whats this about the FAI supplying us with a sponsor??????
