Term-X 7,891 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Still surprised it's not THAT much more than the Samsung deal, Mourinho could have us dominating in a few years, so it's odd nobody wants to be a part of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We Hate Scouse 10,326 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Turkish airlines sponsored united for a while and they also sponsor Kobe Bryant and messi so I don't get this small brand argument however what they are offering is way below market value I thinkAdd Dortmund and Barcelona to that....Some peoples reactions are comical.Turkish Airlines, the small company, giving Chelsea millions to market terrorism...

Pizy 18,918 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Just heard the news that it's official.Can't say I'm pleased. Samsung has always been one of the cleanest, least offensive looking sponsor logos. This new one is a shirt ruiner in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Term-X 7,891 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 All this for £7m extra, what's £7m to Samsung?.. a drop in the ocean, strange really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinAshburner 1,270 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I think that it should be illegal that in Sports or Football that you wear old outdated Sports Kits or jerseys to Matches because the New Sponsors have copyright and put a lot of money into the kits and uniforms. so that means no one can wear Samsung Chelsea FC Jerseys to Matches because now Turkish Airlines are now new Sponsors.They Shouldn't Let people in at Stadiums if you are wearing old Chelsea FC jerseys and not the new jerseys. it should be illegal to wear Samsung Chelsea FC jerseys to Chelsea FC Matches in 2015/2016 now that Turkish Airlines are now the new Chelsea FC shirt sponsors.

I'm more surprised that other huge, globally famous brands weren't jumping at the chance to pay us loads and have their logo on our shirts.I mean Turkish Ailines? That's the best we can do?

different level 1,056 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 official from their side...It should be enough. I doubt they would announce it if the contract wasn't already signed.From one side it's nice that we've upgraded on the shirt sponsorship deal, I mean United are getting £47m a season from Chevrolet, our deal with Samsung seems quite pathetic in comparison. Now the thing that we should've gotten even better deal is a different matter.From the other I have grown attached to the Samsung logo on our shirts and even kinda accepted it as a part of our identity which is a bit sad. If it was any other prominent company it would've been okay, but it feels odd buying an item which has "Turkish Airlines" text on it. I can't see myself doing that. I'll probably just buy the regular lifestyle t-shirts from the megastore until we change it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't charge 50/60 quid a shirt and then make people buy them or you can't come in just because they change the shirt sponsor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly the end of the world. Some people just love moaning about insignificant things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tautvix 1,321 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 All I care about kits is Chelsea logo in it...However, Turkish airlines is gonna look like Samsung. Only with two lines in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelDance 552 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I still rather us keep Samsung if it's just 7 million pounds difference, we've got a good reputation with them and they have with us the fans and the team. We're good as we are, and if we keep it up the next transfer we probably won't spend a lot anyway. And it's not official in my opinion until I see it on the Chelsea website. What I heard is that they are the favourites because they are the highest so far.But dear god I'll stick with my Samsung one until we either get them back or a non airline. I still would prefer Carlsberg (If they would be interested) if Samsung don't want to work with us even for the same deal, a nice company not a international company with no connection to London or England.
