Turkish Airlines rumoured to replace Samsung

[cchuka 99]

I'm very happy with the change. I always felt the Samsung logo was a bit domineering. Especially with the popularity of their phones

While on holiday, someone told me they liked my Samsung shirt. I was livid

I really doubt that. Didn't we just this year start the new contract with Samsung that we signed last year or the year before?

A Chelsea spokesman said: "Samsung have exercised their right to extend their deal which will see them remain as a premium partner of the club until the end of May 2015."

Surely we can get a better brand.

Mcdonalds?

Wish there was a major corporation called Chelsea. That would be perfect lol.

Fly Emirates again!

It's a shame because Samsung's lettering is built to be on a football shirt - unobtrusive (can't stress enough how big a deal this is - the big ass Chevy logo on United's shirt literally forces me to look at it and nothing else when it's on the screen - job done, I suppose) and the white sits very well on the royal blue background. Not to mention that they're at the top of their business and we have a unique relationship. They need to stump up more dough, though. Another £10m a season equals a superstar signing every 3 years.

CHEVROLET

I want one of the sexy and hip brands of today.

Wheres Apple, Google, Tesla, Facebook and such?

[Rambo 1,729]

Please god no. I know it makes sense from a financial standpoint but the SAMSUNG logo is iconic on the Chelsea shirt and aesthetically one of the best looking sponsors out there.

[coolhead23 1,147]

This could just be a ploy to get Samsung on the table and have a better deal from the next season.

I don't see Samsung exiting us so soon and specially when we are being a powerhouse in Europe.

Debated on this issue earlier on another thread.

I still standby my stance for Samsung. The jersey just looks weird with other sponsors than Samsung.

[Chelsea Legend 11 4,062]

Its always gonna be about the badge for me, no matter who the corporate sponsor is. So long as the next deal is for a shit ton of money I don't care if its Walt Disney

[Term-X 7,891]

Ugly logo. Please no!

Non-glamorous location, boring airliner (dubai is the hot spot right now not turkey) and an obtrusive name. Samsung is only one word and they don't add an ugly logo with the text. Hopefully there are intelligent people at the club who understand the shirt needs to look good and be associated with desirable brands.

[TheOneChan95 225]

I hope Samsung sticks with us and fork out more money. As many others pointed out the words just seem to fit very well on the shirt. It doesn't scream out "LOOK AT ME" but instead feels part of it. Hopefully they realise that sticking with us could be very beneficial for them in the long run as our squad seems poised to become a dominant force in football for the next 5-10 years.

[Thendo 1,088]

I am not to bothered with it as long as they can make it look decent on the jersey and offer us tons of money for it. With ffp coming along, these sort of incomes becomes much more important , so we might be forced to not be to picky with the appearence if we can get more money out of it (just as utd). That said, I wish we could keep our sponsorship with samsung, as someone said its easily the best looking shirt + sponsor combination out there.

[Daniel1980 1,425]

I liked Fly Emirates.

It would be cool to have a prestigious sponsor, but considering FFP, money is more important.
