Another triumph for our CEO.

Of course. I would imagine he has a great deal of input into FXPro's business strategy.

andyh:  This "divorce" took place earlier...and, for some reason, the papers just picked up on it.  It is not as big a deal as it is being made out to be.  We will be paid thru the end of this season and we already are in talks with other potential sponsors.  This will not have any real impact on our operating budget...after all, we went of several years without any sponsor other than acorns.

General

Regarding FXPro - I am not bothered - as long as they pay the money, I wouldn't care if we had Tampax written on the front.

The question I , and I would imagine most fans want to know is will this effect the new kit being released. Surely to god after this year, that would be ridiculous.

Thanks very much for the reply General, and its good to know we are already looking at new opportunities.

Lets just hope it does not have a knock on effect with replica kit availabilty next season.

The General has confirmed the 'divorce' with FxPro, and that we are exploring other sponsorship options.

FxPro were shit anyway !

I have no problem with it, As long as the shirts aren't delayed for a 2nd year. I don't want to have to boycott it again

Crikey, that's a bit pathetic, and I suspect you know it.

We could wear a see-through sponsor. We still get the money, but don't tarnish the shirt. I can't see any flaws with that idea at all. Might suggest it to the General.

Not a major disaster is it? Bring back Mita Copiers.

Looked at logically, if they want to cut back there's probably little between any of the non-Champions League sides. We all get much the same TV coverage, Villa will sell more shirts than Fulham even if they only go on sale in November. The big difference is the London factor and that advert on the Heathrow flightpath.

And the fact that Fulham will do whatever they want.

Good I think it looks shit on the shirt anyway

Yes it does, it's not too bad on the black one, but on the home one, it looks a bit iffy.
