JawD 99 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Anyone else heard about this? Renaming Shearers Bar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 22182 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Yeah because there really isn't enough sports direct branding around the stadium already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawD 99 Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 Coming soon - sports direct crisps. Oh and the only ale served will be Sports Direct - Bitter :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Sports Direct blobs in the bogs aswell, safe as fuck apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernMag 0 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I now hate SD - only remembered today that we're at the SD Arena. Motherfuckin' titty sucking two-balled bitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 10972 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I've never liked the name "Shearer's Bar" to be honest. I have never associated Alan Shearer with a great night out to be honest (I know he has a good reputation with pros, but he just never strikes me as that much of a good laugh). Should have been called "Gazza's" then sell buckets of chicken and fishing trips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Everything about the stadium is incidental to the main draw, which is Sports Direct branding. Next there'll be a little logo put on Sir Bobby's bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 33881 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 (edited) I wish this was a photoshop but it's not Newcastle United becoming part of Sports Direct. They're not a mere sponsor.* *Are they a sponsor at all? Edited March 3, 2012 by Howmanheyman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 43095 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Wonder how many of the team now touch the sign before going out on the pitch? I know a few used to - Saylor, Shola etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 33881 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Seriously, that sign would've been put up originally for inspiration to our players and a reminder to visiting players of where they were and what to expect. How the fuck is overwhelming it with Sports Direct logos going to help this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6700 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Seriously, that sign would've been put up originally for inspiration to our players and a reminder to visiting players of where they were and what to expect. How the fuck is overwhelming it with Sports Direct logos going to help this? Quite. But they've got TV cameras in the tunnel these days now, haven't they? Wherever there's a camera there's a SD sign it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6700 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 BTW, how long before Sports Direct appears on our shirts as a second sponsor (as how some of the Championship clubs do)? I can well imagine him sticking it on the back below the shirt number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the fuck is overwhelming it with Sports Direct logos going to help this? Might get a few players popping in for a donnay putter or a pair of lonsdale trainers, or maybe not.

Happy Face 29 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Would anyone swallow all the SD stuff if it means more investment like Cisse and Colo and Kruls new deals etc? Would you get Sports Direct tattooed on your forehead for a £100,000? The two are unrelated either way, SD don't pay for any of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the advertising from the ground helps put money into his SD tills and he invests some of that money in the club then the two are related, although there is no definitive proof either way. I was asking the original question in a hypothetical way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 31221 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 There is zero correlation. Happy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would, but I'm not convinced that NUFC sees a penny for the SD advertising. I think the transfer fees come from other incomes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
