New shirt sponsors - Swansea Uni

[Itchysphincter]

I like the sound of this. I can't imagine that it's worth much money but it just feels right.

In other words, they couldn't get anyone to sponsor us.

I'll eat my sofa is we are getting paid for this.

Very warm and romantic of course, but that doesn't pay the bills.

Hope we haven't turned down a better offer for something "local".

Suspect there might be some Fairwood related dealings in there somewhere. The Uni taking up more of the maintenance expenses maybe.

If we have turned down a better offer then it must mean we aren’t as hard up for cash as some people think.

I doubt Yoyo Bet or whatever other pretend company that's been on the shirt for the last couple of years paid us anything either.

At last there is a Swans shirt I will buy for the first time since Swansea.com. (I do have a Travel House one that never sees the light of day). All betting companies can get fckd!

Well quite. The notion that the club would have turned down a better offer for this is naive. Or indeed any offer. The previous sponsor no longer exists I believe.

With the financial strain on the HE sector and particularly the strain Swansea Uni are under at the moment, I very much doubt that there is much (if any) monetary injection to the club. I can only assume there is some kind of Fairwood deal included.

They are in bigger financial strife than the club- must be related to Fairwood

Congratulations to our club, I say. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8644775/Swansea-City-highest-profile-football-team-ditch-gambling-company-shirts.html

Heads up for all you kit fanatics - it's officially released at 1pm today. However the app at least has a full view picture of the home kit; it looks extremely nice with a black to white fade upwards from the bottom of the shirt.

Did it ever exist?

Great to be advertising local establishments / businesses.
But TBH I think the college could have made a better design than just printing their prospectus badges and lettering.
IMO Swansea.com still far and away the best design.

That’s a very good question
