Some rumours... (believed to be very true!!)

[planeteels]

1.Asics will most likely not be an eels sponsor in 2005 (i hear definitely not)

And

2. I have also been told that Classic may not be with parra in 2005... i'm not so sure about this one yet - but the person who told me is within Parra.


At least point 1 would explain the reason for Cheap Eels Jerseys....

Anyone heard who our new sponsor could be?

God knows, who our major sponsor will be, I even have doubts about Mounties being our sleeve sponsor due the new pokie tax, but in saying that there is no doubt there will be a new sponsor on the scene or a minor sponsor could make the upgrade!! those which may be in the running include VW, Musashi and WSFM.

Anyone considered "Clubs NSW"? They'll have a battle to fight and exposure to seek...

I've heard different about Classic however you may know someone witha bit more info then me.

Asics will most likely be out - the two I have heard are a car company and another sportswear/goods manufacturer

Nike, eh?

I just hope pur sponsor is a reputable sponsor with a truckload of cash!

My god, if we dropped classic and went with nike i would be extatic.

It'll be a massive coup for the sweat shops and a payrise for workers from $2.50 to $2.55 and hour!! :roll:

More like 40 cents to 50cents/hour :x

Nike is rubbish! =;

Sometime back in the Australian Financial Review, it had us going out to tender on naming rights for Parra Stadium...wonder if that is building up to something as well for a huge sponsorship deal???

 

[Hurriflatch]

How will Hindy feel with new shorts no telling how long it'll take him to get them to "fit" right

 

[eloquentEEL]

if VW step up... will we be the Vee Dub Eels Club?

And if Nike come in, do we have to change our logo again, so that it looks like the Nike swoosh?

:evil:

Though it wouldn't suprise, considering an eel can look like the "swoosh" 8-[

Maybe we should get an airline to sponsor us... would of certainly helped carry some traffic back and forth between here and England... how about getting Richard Branson on board, an Englishman himself... just tell him we're near the beach and we could end up with Virgin Blue'n'Gold

Yeah, still haunted by the vision of those skin-tight, hi-tech Nike rugby jerseys that ripped 15 min into the game at the Rugby World Cup.

The horror of Widders and Riddell wobbling along in tight yellow jerseys

 

[PJ Marshal]

Oh well as long as we get better sponsors than Herbal World and Wokka Noodles :lol:

 

[Avenger]

Assuming we do change from Classic, then do we have to change the whole design of our jersey again? I would prefer the retro to come back forever.

 

[Glenn]

If a change of jersey makers is on the card, definitly wouldnt be unhappy if the "Retro" design was used...
