Any news on a sponsorship for this season or is it all being kept secret until signed
Hope it's Fullers London Pride myself
All rolled out with new kit I suspect
Been Wondering about this myself , Marathon Bet have an option for another year but no news yet .
COYW
Well in the early pre-season videos the players were wearing Marathon bet on the training gear, but in the player interviews this seems to have gone in favour of plain gear.
Methinks a new sponsor beckons with the kit announcement...
Well, I promised Fullers that if they became our sponsor, I'd donate a pint of blood, and they seemed happy to go along with that idea, so hopefully they'll keep their side of the bargain
the option was on our side I believe, so if it is a decent amount take the option or do a deal with someone else where if we go up we get a substantial increase in yearly sponsorship.
Marathonbet have disappeared from our list of sponsors/ partners on the official site
Seems a bit pointless to be selling the last years away kit as our new season third kit, at buy one get one free, 2014-16, if they are changing the sponsor

That's actually a good point. Wonder if the club will offer a swap for those who have it, so they can get 'up to date' so it were
True, understand the volatility of sponsorship deals but there's no sense of advertising the kit as a 2 year kit when the terms of the sponsor deal allow that deal to be ended after the first season.
Our official partners include iPro, VisitFlorida.com , Metro bank, motor village, carlsberg and apsley tailors.

Hold on, how can the Club have the cheek to charge £40 still for the black shirt (supposed to be this years 3rd shirt) if they're changing the sponsor? Put it this way, if that's the case, there will be a lot of fans kicking off.

Sorry, didn't see this
The kit will stay the same, with sponsor changed. Like when betfair replaced Pizza Hut on the home kit in 2002

So what about those who have purchased the black shirt recently?
Well the kit is sold as 2014/16, assuming trade descriptions act will kick in and everyone will rightfully kick up a fuss, or maybe the new sponsor as part of the deal will cough up to replace them
Marathonbet have an option on a third year as part of their deal but haven't decided yet or Fulham are looking further afield for More money either way they shouldn't be selling shirts with Marathonbet on until it has been sorted
By all accounts, Marothonbet have removed Fulham from their bio. Read into that what you will.
MarathonBet is no longer listed as a club sponsor on the mobile website.
I reckon it's 'Lastminute.com'
We'll find out on Thursday
The word Mug comes to the fore. But please don't be offended
When the new kit was being linked I looked online for the best looking sponsor and found a few blinders. Mozilla foundation comes to mind. I'm a technical Neanderthal so will try and post a picture but realistically won't be able.
iPro is our new sponsor. I have it on good authority, its a 1 year deal. The shirt looks decent sponsor dead centre with a black collar.
we have done a one year sponsor deal, that's terrible IMO, surely we could have got a longer deal with someone. also seems the black shirt is our away shirt for next season, online they have the link for the new home kit (nothing on the link though) and the black kit listed as our away kit usually by now it says third kit.
Don't IPRO sponsor Derby? not saying they cant sponsor two teams just asking

I don't think this is true. A photoshopped image (on not even the correct new kit) with iPro on it has been floating around. I stand to be corrected but what's your source?

if so, that will be the best logo we've had in relation to our colours and shirt.
Don't know how to post it, but if it's the iPro Sport logo, then it will be very minimilistic (basically a stylish writing of the letters in black, with the i dotted in red).
Plus the kids will hopefully be able to have it on their shirts, so that they look more authentic
iPro is on the leaked kit that's been doing the rounds on Twitter.
'leaked' is the incorrect wording, as it's a mocked up version of a kit we will not be using.
I was thinking of starting up a small company called Magath SUCKS!
Does anyone think Fulham would give my logo some shirt space?

Oh really? Fair enough! At least the sponsor is correct!
New sponsor confirmed: http://www.fulhamfc.com/news/2015/july/14/kit-update (http://www.fulhamfc.com/news/2015/july/14/kit-update)
Going to reveal both the sponsor and kit in unison, meaning for our friendlies we'll be wearing a sponsorless version of last years kit.
So it won't be launched on 16th July then :(

But is it though?
I can only imagine that no deal is done as yet. going to have a very disappointed son.
OH FUDGE OFF!!! Surely you can still show us the design of the kit, then have the fans 'pre-order' the kit whilst they go into production.

If it is still awaiting League sign off that would be both stupid and risky. If it's a design that fans love and pre-order en masse only for the League to turn around and say it isn't acceptable the club would be in a pretty awkward situation.
The kit wont change now, to late in development before the start of the season. the kit is here just needs printing otherwise there would not have been the teasers
If they're gonna make us wait like this for the kit, after all the bleedin' buildup they've made us endure, it better be a flippin' good sponsor!

I imagine it's for the sponsor's placement, size and product (e.g. maybe if it's a gambling/alcohol brand, it may require more signoffs..). Just guessing though.

Which makes me ever the more hopeful that it'll be Fullers/London Pride

Exactly - so if any of that changes then it may not look as good. So if a boatload of fans pre-order it to then dislike the corrected design the club would have to deal with the blowback. Ain't no one wanna deal with blowback!
How much longer is this going to take then? It seems as though all the other clubs have already released their new kits and ours is continually being pushed further and further back towards the start of the season.
Piss up in a brewery etc.
Great news, a new sponsor means more cash. Dunno why everyone is so whiny about it !

It's Airness all over again
Surely someone working at the club must have known the sponsor blah blah blah needed FA approval. So why commit to advertising to launch it on the 16th if they couldn't guarantee it? I promised my daughter I would take her to the club shop this weekend and buy her it but judging from the announcement that might be a waste of time now.
I wouldn't care so much even if the shirt wasnt launched until Christmas but don't tell us a date and attempt to tease with a collar then a sleeve, if you have no certainty it will even be launched then. Not taking away from the great news that we are getting a better sponsor, that can only be a good thing for the club but its the manner they have delayed it that is disappointing especially for kids who wont understand the reasons.
Lets hope it is as nice as we are hoping, when Fulham say something is exciting it usually isn't.

I saw that but take that to be the sponsors logo and positioning not, the kit design otherwise it would take to long to get anew one sorted prior to the season. The club as I say have released teasers of the new kit already how silly would they look to then change it, am convinced it is about the sponsors logo etc, maybe also exploiting the option to have another printed logo on the shorts or back of the kit like some other teams have done in the past
The sign off by the league will nit be for the kit, more to do with signing off the sponsor logo, size, suitability, that type of stuff.
The actual Kit is picked and signed off.
im hoping for the jacksonvile jags as our sponser, worth 100 million a year. with a choice of your favourite roar girl printed on the back.

I don't really see the fuss. It's a kit. We'll see it eventually, just sounds like the club are trying to ensure we have a decent deal in place with a reputable sponsor. Can't complain really.

Selling it? As sponsors surly they should be giving it away at home games, now that's what I call sponsorship. :yay:

I think if we paid Fullers about 1million a season that should cover it
