I plan to sell mine to Elf in 12 months time for £200 ......... damn!!!! I should have bought a child's size
Regular posters on 606 might have missed out on the news elsewhere, that there has been a race amongst a section of our fanbase this week. “The Who can brown nose Thomas fastest and hardest Stakes” A small but select field has entered this competition, made up mainly of previous Course and Distance winners. Looking at the current odds in running, I would say “The Cardigan King” is a long nose in front
PS - The Cardigan King previously won The Murray Stakes (1992 - 2006), the Slater & Jiminez Stakes, the Duchatelet Stakes, and most recently the Matt Southall Stakes (2019), when he had his photo taken with the winner.
I assume this brown-nosing event is in aid of securing a job that's up for grabs - the fans' liason officer? Give the job to Lauren if she wants it.
TS might be better taking a step back from public engagement with the fans. He clearly knows his football, and he'll be asked for his opinions on the performance of team and manager. Could be tricky.
Can Charlton build commercial revenue? December 24, 2020 Under the 'nice but tough' regime of Thomas Sandgaard, SE7 club Charlton Athletic are starting to rebuild. However, it takes time to recover from a damaged reputation in League ONE. Sponsors are starting to return to The Valley: https://www.cafc.co.uk/news/view/5f...ome-dugout-control-tower-and-brand-new-tunnel They have responded positively to the new regime of Thomas Sandgaard and it is to be hoped that there will be more sponsorship successes,. A successful commercial strategy generating more revenue is key to the club's future. What the club has absolutely no intention of doing is selling the naming rights to The Valley which many clubs see as a useful source of income even if it results in some naff names. It is hoped to make more of an impact in Asia, particularly in India which is seen as a largely untapped market. However, football is only just starting to make an impression there with cricket still the big mass sport. As far as China is concerned, the big global brands have a great advantage. It's really chicken and egg. When the Addicks were in the Premier League, I was watching a football programme in Kunming and suddenly there was a really rather good analysis of how then manager Alan Curbishley and his sidekick Keith Peacock worked together. I was talking to someone in the commercial department at a less well known Premier League Club and they said their strategy was to get people in China to adopt the club as their second club. I'm not sure how that would work. There is some puzzlement about the reason for franchising out the club shop and the club will work with Hummel to improve the offering, believed that it was too biased to clothing.
