Why don't the club put Acorns on the kids shirts?

There will be an exclusivity clause contained within the agreement with Dafabet.

Because you can only have one sponsor, maybe? I could imagine certain clubs would love to have a different name on every shirt .

Fantastic idea!

Of course there'll be some nailed-down legally binding reason why we can't put the name of a kids' charity on an otherwise "empty "shirt. Brilliant idea though

A mate of mine suggested this to me the other day and i thought it was a clever idea. Bearing in mind it's a charity, surely the main sponsor would'nt object? Or would they? I suppose they'd want exclutivity (if that's the right word).

Why not then have a transfer which can be put on the shirt in the same way as players name? The proceeds of which then go to acorns.  If that isn't allowed the club could sell the transfers separately which could then be ironed on at home.

 I doubt if Dafabet would be happy. There the ones giving us the money, so if they ant get their name on the kids kit then I expect they'd demand no one could.

Probably different rules but, don't the lower leagues have more than one sponsor?  I'm sure I've seen a different sponsor on their shorts, and also on the back of the shirts or am I rambling?

I think I'd call it a day the moment Villa had more than one sponsor's name on their kit.

why ?  seems strange to call it a day just because the club have two or more sponsors on their shirts...

You wouldn't think it was a bit of an eyesore if a football kit had Dafabet on the shirt, Genting on the shorts and 32red on the socks?

I don't even like one sponsor's name let alone several. Anyway, it would probably a case of the straw that broke the camel's back.
