2010 PLAYER SPONSORSHIP

Post: # 851809Post Mr Magic »

I have received the following email from the Club today
2010 Player Sponsorship Program

2009 has seen us grow the Player Sponsorship program and it contributes to giving our Club the best chance to win games of football. Currently we’re in the process of finalizing our Player Sponsorship program for the 2010 season.

As 2009 Player Sponsors, you will have first right of renewal on your sponsored player before new sponsors are able to access the program. The finalized package is most likely to be released in ~1-2 weeks however it’d be great to have an idea before then of how many of you would like to renew your sponsorship. It’d be great to have you all on board again for what we hope will be a fantastic 2010 season.
So the question arises - do we wish to re-sponsor our 2009 Players or go for new players in 2010?

If a mod/admin would 'sticky' this thread it would be appreciated. (thanks :) )

Maybe we just wait until teh Club notifies us what teh groups/costs are for 2010?
What they determine may have great bearing on which way we go.

For those unaware of what we've done in the past:-

Season 2009 we sponsored Raph, Steven, McQualter, Heyne, Tungatalum
Season 2008 we sponsored Gilbert and Geary.
Season 2007 we sponsored Barry Brooks

How much does each share cost?

It's been $15 per share over the past 2 years - and you can take as few as 1 share and as many as you like.
Hopefully the Club maintains the sponsorship prices so that we can continue with that pricing structure.

It would be much easier if we made every share $1000 then we could sponsor alot more players for less work.

If the player prices remain the same I would like the same players sponsored again, obviously without Tungatulum and maybe the inclusion of Tommy Walsh.

That's my choice.


Don't wait for the light at the end of the tunnel to appear, run down there and light the bloody thing yourself!

Luckily every post you do is excellent. Maybe you should go to a shop and buy some less serious pills.

I would love to be involved next season too. I didn't even know this forum existed until I was searching for info on GF ticket allocation after we won the prelim..... And now I am seriously addicted.. :lol:

Look forward to further information. Am happy with whatever players the majority decide. It will just be great to be involved.

Not sure about re-sponsoring Raph, he's a source of too much frustration. Walsh I imagine will be popular.

Wouldn't mind seeing us sponsor an underrated veteran (eg: Baker, Blake), one of our younger guns (eg: Armitage, Jones) or an up-and-comer (eg: Lynch, Stanley, Simpkin). Or go back to Gilbo.

Suppose it depends how they break down the lists. I'm in again of course.

this is similiar to a suggestion I made a few days ago

stick with/ start with 3 and then given interest and funding/ payment add a 1 or 2 more as the list develops and closer to season start when there may be player/s Not Sponsored...

Has there been any thought of rounding the shares off to $20 :?:

from memory the share cost was originally arrived at by being 1/100th of the $1,500 that was required at the time

basicly the price of a set Lunch meal at many pubs and restaurants.
or a maccas meal with desert.

If you spend $15 at maccas you are eating FAR too much.
