The Daily ITK Discussion Thread 18th May 2016

[mark87]

Can you two maybe take this to the 'My cock's bigger than your cock' thread...

Bottom line is Nike are globally one of the biggest players in sport and if they want to chuck a shit tone of money at us then it's fine by me. No I don't personally wear their gear, but they're being talked about like they're Dunlop ffs

Fuck off, Dunlop is bigger than Nike, and has a bigger dick too.

It's all about the check-in action *says in a Ray Winstone voice*

I hope it will be bigger than chelsea one... We will look silly when a team that hasnt even got into europe this season got more money from kit sponsor than spurs...

I thought that agreement is about to be cancelled.. there was some news about it about a month ago

 

[dovahkiin]

sorry if posted
hertyid on coys: While I haven't seen him in the past couple of weeks, my man at the club said previously that the Nike deal was ready to go. And he wouldn't have said that if it wasn't so.
I don't believe that the Chelsea deal would mean all our Nike stuff would fall through. He said UA had an option to match Nike bid and extend but weren't prepared to pay up, so must be a high number.

I have flown all over the world, on multiple airlines, and I have to disagree, Emirates the times i have flown business class with them picked me up in a Mercedes from my home, chauffered me to Heathrow, took me by Mercedes to my hotels the other end, delivered me back to the airport again, and at Heathrow took me home again in a Merc, I have flown Singapore and BA and neither did that, only ones who have bar Emirates was Malaysian a few years ago, Emirates service of business class passengers pisses all over any other airline, and the seats, food, tv and wines were well decent too

So you haven't heard about the hours they make there pilots do.. surprised..

 

[Bus-Conductor]

I think you've smoking too much Shisha my friend. It has a few "malls" and a few luxury hotels but the rest of it is still desert and very much pony, even compared to the next door Abu Dhabi, which at least has a bit more class. Dubai is only up market for chavs who can stay on the Palm, not even the M.East stay there for luxury, they go to classier places like Oman.

As to Emirates, I've flown business class all around the world and it is one of the worst airlines out there. Anyone thinking luxury in terms of airlines thinks Singapore or even BA but definitely not Emirates.

I understand what you are saying, having also flown Emirates and been to the desert chicago, surreal bling festooned, 10 lane nissan taxi grand prix that is Dubai, but the average UK footie fan or those viewing their Tai Sky super sunday isn't the discerning, Times reading, frequent business class traveller. To most, Emirates/Dubai would be seen as a slightly more luxurious product than a company as common as muck, who's product is the ubiquitous nylon running shoe, made by 6yo kids in far east sweat shops and worn by everyone including those 6yo far east kids who bought their fake nikes for 2p from 4yo far east street trader.

Dunlop are the Nike of the tyre world

What the fuckity McBoatifacing fuck are you lot on about tonight?! Strewth.

 

[ryantegan]

My favourite Spurs sponsor ever is Holsten. Have you seen the chav toothless herpes ridden barrel scrapped specimens that drink that shit?

Yet not once did I wish we were sponsored by Covoisier to save face from fucking Arsenal.

 

[Martinhotspur]

Nike Hart Lane

 

[rabbikeane]

As long as they pay for it they can call it the Ryanair Landing Strip

 

[THOWIG]

Who cares. We are all still going to call it white hart lane right?

 

[Snarfalicious]

Just Do It Lane.

Epicenter of Orgies for years to come.

Sexual.

 

[voxy28]

Nike Arena I reckon.... Since it is located at WHL, I doubt they need to emphasize this as commentators usually will welcome viewers at the location than the stadium.

Dont give Daniel any ideas

 

[alexis]

Yes - for combined shirt and stadium sponsorship deal.

For info (kit deals):
Gooners get £30m per year from Puma
Manyoo get £75m per year from Adidas
City get about £20m per year from Nike
Chelsea £30m from adidas but will get £60m per year from Nike from next year

If we are looking at kit and naming rights, this could be massive.

How after being 9th do they get 60 mill bent as no?

 

[alexis]

I don't know the sponsorship market very well but traditionally naming rights do not hold much value is my perception. I think the OS are close to securing something for just 5m a year and that's a stadium which will hold numerous events and had the olympics. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.

Maybe but the business brains there also let spammers have it for bugger all

I've got to pull you here because your talking bollocks, highest density of 5* hotels I have found anywhere in the world with top class restaurants in each. Service is excellent and the only malls bigger are in China. Emirates has the newest air fleet of any carrier of its size, etihad qatar beat it but are smaller. This is from someone who doesn't love Dubai but has lived in abdab for 7 years. Agree it can appear vulgar but it's an old image and no longer fits the bulk of the city. You sound like you have an axe to grind with place which is fine just don't talk bollocks. Peace

That's ME and Asia airlines see Singapore or malaysias CEO quote of recent times. But agree with you it's dangerous now and pilots are frazzled
