Guest Ash76 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Seriously, why does it matter whether you can order a f*cking D Taxi or not? Someone mentioned it’s embarrassing, why?

The Dukeries Owl Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 16 minutes ago, 2roland2 said: Tbf I don’t think it’s the right thing to do and personally I don’t like it, a lot of our fans are not bothered as long as it gives us an advantage which again is each fans individual right to ignore the morality of it as officially we are only bending rules. My my main concern though is if Chansiri leaves anytime soon or even a few years down the line, we have neglected to develop relationships with potential sponsors and for the kind of levels of sponsorship you need in football they sometimes take years to develop and nurture. it might not hurt us now but it could hurt our future revenue streams if we eventually need them with new owners or if indeed Chansiri decides to stop doing what he’s doing, ie/ funding these sponsorships himself. If DC does get us promoted there will be queue of companies lining up with sponsorship deals. If he doesn't and he gets tired of fighting the EFL and their arbitary rules then conceivably we would be up the creek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be more than happy for him to use existing family connections and businesses to do what he is doing but setting up companies like D-Taxis and Elev8 comes across to me as unethical and bad practice.

oldishowl Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Some of the things that go off around football with tapping up , dodgy agents and the modern equivalent of brown envelopes involving big sums of money and some of our fans getting excited about a few theoretical companies. Chansiri may may be a bit naive but if anything he is too honest in my eyes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who are we judging him against in terms of honesty? Pinocchio? Sep blatter? I don’t expect all of our fans to be bothered about the morality of what’s going on and that’s each fans choice but too honest Everything you mention is within the rules and is totally visible to anybody who wants to find out. Open and transparent , discussed openly on a fans forum. As I said, they are nothing in comparison to some of the very dodgy things that happen in our game .

Only in as much as the main club sponsor is the surname of the owner and the two main commercial deals are companies that don't even trade. If you take off the blue and white specs, that does come across as the epitome of tinpotedness but then there will still be plenty that will defend it.

If Chansiri sells up it doesn’t have to mean we are up the creek although things like this leave a club less desirable to buyers when potential revenue streams have been left to rot. All i am saying is we shouldn't be ignoring that side and we should be developing to maximise revenues if Chansiri is successful and we do indeed go up. The reason Chansiri decided to do all the sponsorship himself so to speak is because they are not worth the paper they are written on unless you are a premier league club. And even then you have to be a half decent one. You talking as if Chansiri is screwing us out of a multi million pound deal with Nike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would prefer DC to use real businesses that his family own in East Asia to get the same money into the club and the advertising space can be used for smaller commercial activity if there is any.

ZicoSterland2 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 This transfer thread is again running well off subject. In my honest opinion DC is an honourable man with good intentions for the club. The constant doom mongering , sniping and in some cases total untruths really does beggar belief. Please get the season started so the amateur accountants, managers , and paragons of doom can become a back number to what happens out on the field. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
