To be fair someone being daft enough to sponsor United for more than they should doesn’t make it dodgy. I don’t see how it can be what’s the advantage what’s the links / connection.I think that Everton also tried to claim for loss of Sponsorship following the Russian invasion of Ukraine but were declined something along the lines of due dilligance and should have factored in any failure in completing the full sponsorship.
Funnily enough another club were able to take up sponsorship from Chevrolet who had zero UK presence and then went on to quickly sack the person responsible for signing off on the deal, they then subsequently signed a deal with Team Viewer worth over 50% of their company revenue where nobody could understand how they were going to meet the obligations which they ultimately failed to do. And now they have a new £60 million deal with Snap Dragon who I believe don't sell direct to the consumer and who's target market are the Microsoft's and Samsung's of this world. Hard to see how the deal gets justifies their investment.
Strange really, no questions asked.
What are the details of the Everton sponsorship ? Was it pre initial invasion or pre full invasion ? How much ? What where they supposed to do I am not sure anything war like is especially foreseeable or what you normally think about. Are there insurance policies for this ? Why have they Everton not challenged it more ?
