Is Martyn writing jokes for others now?

[Drummond]

I heard the sponsor was ADickFor, no?

I don't get it.

I don't think you're the only one.

My best mate tells me that FoxPro are also one of the main sponsors of the WRC (World Rally Championship) as he works on the TV highlights.

looks like we didn't screw them for as much as they could have afforded.

I don't get it.

He certainly isn't. Call me Mr Thicky, but I don't get it either.

I think..... (think) that what he wanted you to do was type "what's ADickFor?" so he could say, for banging your mother, or something like that.

There is a joke in the South Park movie which is similar.

That's my guess anyway.

Fulham Football Club has today announced a new and exciting sponsorship deal with FxPro Financial Services Ltd (FxPro). FxPro, a leading global retail broker in FX and CFDs, will join the Club as its Main Sponsor from July 2010 on a three year deal. This will see the FxPro brand appear on the front of the First Team shirt until the summer of 2013.

The agreement, which follows Fulham’s recent successes in Europe and its highest ever Barclays Premier League finish, is the biggest in the Club’s history. Integral to the agreement is support from FxPro for a variety of Fulham Foundation initiatives, with particular focus, and funding, for Fulham Deaf FC.

Fulham’s outstanding media platforms, along with its enviable London location, were important factors for FxPro in the formation of a partnership. The high end hospitality offering, brand positioning, and well executed marketing initiatives reinforced the benefits for both parties in a joint long term union.

Alistair Mackintosh, Chief Executive at Fulham said:

‘I am delighted to welcome FxPro to Fulham during a period of such success and optimism on and off the pitch. It is always a cause for celebration when you have an opportunity to work with a brand that shares your commitment and vision for success.

'FxPro already has global presence and, partnering another Premier League football club, will enhance this even further. Clearly this has additional benefits for Fulham’s global reach which, following the European success of last season and the recognition the Club received worldwide, is something that we are extremely excited about’.

Denis Sukhotin, Director for FxPro added:

‘FxPro is delighted to team up with Fulham Football Club for the next three years. Fulham’s success during the last campaign in both the Barclays Premier League and in the UEFA Europa League saw the Club capture the imagination of football fans, not just in the UK but internationally.

'FxPro is committed to raising the profile of Fulham FC and supporting the Club as it seeks to replicate last season’s success in the domestic and European competitions during the period of our association.’

Thats a bit shit.

[citizenDJ]

A bit strange, sponsoring two teams, isn't it?

I mean, I can't say I care much about sponsors one way or the other, to be honest, but still.........a bit strange, isn't it?

[TheSandman]

Rangers and Celtic have had the same sponsor for ages. They've both just changed from Carling to Tennants.

[Walmley_Villa]

As did we - NTL...Newcastle, Rangers and Celtic had it at the same time as us.

[citizenDJ]

Ah, right. Well, in that case....

A bit common, sponsoring two teams, isn't it?

I mean, I can't say I care much about sponsors one way or the other, to be honest, but still.........a bit common, isn't it?

[PaulTheVillan]

Rangers and Celtic both have the same sponsor.

Can't see it being a problem.
