I’m not a fan of having sponsor names on shirts on the back, on the arms etc but the world we live in and the financial situation we are in, can’t be choosey. Also in reality as much as I don’t really like them it doesn’t impact me and it brings in a few quid so why not.

And yes nice to have a sponsor that isn’t some Far Eastern gambling website with a silly name

You know it's going to be a shite old season when our supporters are wetting themselves over a new sponsor they have never heard of.

Hendo New official ‘Back of Shirt’ Partner for 2020-21 - Rapidz. Financial technology firm and digital wallet specialists.

Nice bit of extra sponsorship money, will hopefully ease things a little bit in the immediate future.

Anyone any clue how much the Rapidz thing is worth to the club?

Your definition of 'wetting' is weird.

Seems positive news.

:?: It's known the club needs cash in to sort out the accounts/sign players. We get some cash in, fans make positive noise in hope it may free up some cash for a transfer fee or wages - hardly wetting themselves but whatever floats your bored boat.

On Twitter the supporters are wetting themselves, it's just a fact. They are that desperate for any sort of good news that they are treating a sponsorship deal as a major event.

I have been on Twitter and they really aren't. A few, that's good news one jokingly saying are they paying us an Ejaria and that on the surface it looks like a good bit business. Nothing more really.

You didn't say, It's just a FACT, so it cannot be true.

Nigel Howe has been fired/resigned.

A yes man has been installed as his successor.

There have been rumblings for weeks about it, if you throw enough darts you'll eventually hit a bullseye.

He isn't a journalist but Tweets like he is one making him a fake journalist. Keep kissing his arse though.

Has there? First I’ve heard about it and nothing about it on here. Heard they had different ideas on Swift, for example, but nothing about him leaving. Unless you want to point me in the right direction?

Also not really sure where/how I’ve been kissing his arse.

Yes that's where the rumblings started. Howe wanted to sell and the owners blocked it, the two parties were on different pages. This happened around the time of the Sheffield United bid.

All on Twitter and reported by people far more reliable than a fake journalist.
