Any news on our new sponsor?

[Gronk]

I'd also tell the new sponsor you aren't going to be part of our name. We are not the "Dyldam" Parramatta Eels.

No let them, but there will be two levels of sponsorship. Extra $1M or 2 to get naming rights.

And who ever it is has to add Parra Eels to their name.

Only ingredient allowed on Pizza Hut Pizzas is eel.

That was the original plan, NRL didn't seem to agree with it.

they don't have any say in it

 

[hineyrulz]

So you are mad keen to whore our jersey out, but you shit your pants at the idea of more advertising revenue from TV. ..Weirdo.

no

 

[El Diablo]

I assume Max is holding out for the chance that we start the season well and 2 months in potential sponsors start offering what he thinks we are worth

no

Max just doesn't see giving the football club millions as a good thing unless the Leagues club gets something out of it

he's all about cost cutting and the only way he can justify giving millions to the FC is if they get advertising on the jersey

that's the way it works when an Administrator is called in

Nahhh ... i reckon theres more to it than that ... Maxy would know there is more money to be had with a major sponsor on the front of our jersey

Bernie Gurr ended up getting Samsung for the Roosters when they were a relative newcomer and not held in the same regard as giants like Sony. I expect something similar.

 

[Avenger]

In saying that all my dreams would come true if we ended up getting someone like Tesla. A famous Serbian name on the front of my favourite jersey would have me constantly on the vinegar stroke.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

The sharks struggled to get one for a period too .... and do you know how much the sponsorship they got was worth?

I have no idea why we cant get one - how much sponsors are offering? How much is fair? ... i assume some companies are trying to score a cheapie maybe? ... and maybe Max is doing the right thing holding out for a proper amount .... i think its hard for any of us to be judgemental without knowing the details

Doesn't seem real hard for some of us

Then you get less money

 

[T-Boon]

Then you get less money

I am ok with that.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yeah me too. It's just coincidence that the rich clubs win more than the rest.

Tesla is a Albanian name

Tesla is a Albanian name

Its actually a Serb surname from Lika. Originates from the village Raduče on the slopes of Velebit. In the census of 1712, one part of the village had Draganic surname, the other Tesla, from which it is indirectly concluded that part of the family changed their surname. It is assumed that the change could originate from one ancestor who had characteristically pronounced and strong upper jaw that reminded on tool for woodworking(Tesanje, Tesla). Ancestors of this family came from Pilatovci hamlet near Vucji Dol (Montenegro).

Croats claim Draganić's are nobles from Zadar, and his mothers surname Kalinic also as Croatian (according to one book by Croatian author Tesla said that).
