Regarding the "use of a player for 1 promotion evening" part. If we get that as part of the package, perhaps use that for some sort of Q & A session on this board? Said player wouldn't even need to leave the comfort of his home then as long as he's on the interweb (assuming of course someone, naming no names, from the club didn't pretend to be him and answer the questions!)

Sounds good. Or if he's not comfortable doing that we could do an interview with questions prepared beforehand. I don't mind writing it up and sticking it on here.

My cunning plan is coming to fruition. All you suckers with season tickets will not effectively be getting in for free. Whereas tigs will, at this rate, pay less than £14 & get in the Coral. Can we play Cas?

Not that isn't a good idea but an alternative, more boring suggestion is that if any one of our number has a business who could use them, they could do that in return for chucking a suitable sum in the kitty for next year. Might be over-complicating things there though.

I bet the RLFans lot are very happy about this free advertising

As a school teacher, I would like them, especially if it was one of the Bradford born players. (In fact Elliot Whitehead went to the school) I'm not sure how much I could squeeze out of the school's budget though....

You could all look at it as a good deed.

Personally I would be happy for Wigan Bull to get any of the none sharable sponsorship benefits as he is going to all the hassle of organising this.

Thanks Wiggy

Lot to be said for that, to be honest.l

agree entirely

You beat me to it. I was just thinking exactly the same a couple of hours back and was gonna post it when I got back. I'm sure the parking spot for example will be very handy for someone travelling quite a way each time.

Without speaking for anyone else, using the appearance (if we got one) of the player at a local school would seem a great idea.... Certainly I can think of no reason why I'd need the player to turn up at my Network Rail office,

I'll see if I can think of something

, but if not a school appearance would easily be the best idea for me.

Aye me too. I suggested the Q & A purely because it's a way for everyone on here to benefit, but I've no problem at all with the appearance going to a good cause of some sort, and a school visit would qualify!

A Q&A is a good idea though, and since we're a fans group potentially doing the sponsorship [imaybe [/ithe player might do one of those too as an extra?? Would be worth an ask surely? As it might not put him out too much if he only needs to be logged onto Stuart Duffys PC for an hour answering pre prepared questions??

As an aside, would a player Q&A web-interview on this forum or through the Bulls own site even be something to put to the club anyway, maybe separately from the sponsorship thing?? Deacon or Menzies or one of the senior players might be interested in doing it as a new feature for the club and some different fan interaction? Just a thought.

The school visit seems best to me (assuming that it isn't somewhere like St. Helens

) as we get the added bonus of also promoting the Bulls to a wider audience.

P.S. I also agree with benjcake

Very decent of you all.

I'm not in it for personal gain, it's helping OUR club out that's the draw for me.

I'm happy for the non shareable stuff to be "polled!"

[size=75Mind, the parking would be good!

Anyone own a coach we could park in the spot?

Hood owns a very poor one. Badum, tschh.

Can i jump in on this as well, didna notice it beofre.

I'd be happy to contribute.

Hi,

I posted my reply on Saturday that I was up for sponsoring a player but my post has since been moved to the trust/isa thread instead so I would just like to say again that I'm up for chipping in and sponsoring a player!

The point I made on my previous message was how would poeple feel about sponsoring a player yet to make his debut? We could sponsor one of the potential stars of tomorrow. Imagine the feeling we'd get when he was to make his debut......

As far as I've seen only players who have a squad number are available for sponsorship. Given that the existing sponsors get first refusal we'd probably be looking at players coming into the first team squad anyway. I'd probably get more satisfaction from supporting a player just starting his career than someone more established.
If we took that approach would we be looking to take this strategy every year, supporting a young player just coming through from our academy, or given first refusal would we follow our existing player.
If we did look to change player every year I'd suggest we'd want to set that out with the club up front.

Thats a good thought, and I'm sure when we get a list of possibles it will contain a lot of players yet to make their debut. Someone like George Burgess maybe?

I was thinking the exact same player.

If we still get one media appearance from our player to an event, surely having George would be quite beneficial if we were going to use the appearace to inspire youngsters - i.e - I'm sure he will have some stories from Sam down under to inspire potential stars of what can happen if you are committed, work hard, etc, etc

Its getting cheaper everyday. If this all goes to plan I'll be really chuffed with us all. Updated list below.
