Are we still looking for a shirt sponsor or have we accepted the offer from Evostik and if so is it a good deal financially ?

Dennis said today that an announcement of a shirt sponsor may be announced Monday. Fingers crossed.

A deal has been done but cannot be announced yet, we need to do this properly. It won't be Evo-stick though.

We do have a kit sponsor but I don't think any announcement will be made until Thursday. I didn't think it was Monday but I could be wrong.
Let's be proud of what we have achieved, Darlington Football Club needs to survive so let's all be in this together because this is your club now and your club needs you.

Up until now we all thought that Evo-Stick would be the sponsors, unless our appeal was successful.
Now, what has happened to change that? Has a better deal appeared on the scenes within the last couple of days, or have they pulled out for some reason?
COME ON DARLO!

No, we knew evo-stick had put a decent offer, we were never told they would definitely be the sponsor

That was my take on it also.

They were seriously interested, but it was never a given!

Fair do's. Let's hope it is a good deal for us and them and that their logo isn't horrible lol. (Joking)

So this would be their £10k investment? - That would be a shame because weren't they going to put that in anyway?, this way we'd miss out on an extra sponsor - hopefully the sponsorship deal is worth a little more.

I never said it is the Northern Echo - it was a pure guess from me.

So until it is announced, who knows who it is, or why they are sponsors and how much it's worth?

Don't worry, I was just speculating too :) - more so for loanstars reaction to your original post than anything else.

You do have a keen knack of guessing correctly though don't you?

I do, yes :)

To be honest, The Echo seems an obvious choice. It's a way of re-justifying the money that they pledged before.

I honestly have no inside track, I've asked a couple of people and they aren't telling :evil:

What about Cummins or Cleveland Bridge?

Or do Cleveland Bridge still sponsor Darlington CB? I'm supposing they do.

I agree.
My preference would be Darlington Building Society. Never had to explain which team I supported when wearing those shirts...

Shirt sponsor "Northern Echo"
Does that mean there will be no new money on top of the £10K already pledged ?
