Not strictly true, they have previously sponsored sandal RUs shirt and also ran a major national newspaper campaign entitled "proud to be made in wakefield" IIRC (cant remember the exact wording)

coca cola have a global policy on sponsorship which precludes them from sponsoring individual teams. they are only interested in events and the bigger the better

on two occasions did I contact the coca cola enterprises to see if they could sponsor our kits and was told that hey don't sponsor local clubs but was willing to donate drinks for certain events



the branded name just rolls off the tongue without thinking so why would they sponsor a team local

So the bottom line is they have no community spirit.

yep

Not true

Stoke me a clipper i'll be back for christmas

I'm just reading between the lines, if you are right then good for them.

Correct - that person is now at Fev.

where is he nowadays?. what about double two, i hear there rolling in money there

Yeah they do have a very active community programme to be fair.

So who are the rumours about then, lets have some names

Adnan Khashoggi

My money is on Clipper.

Clipper are the new Ruben Wiki.

No need to stoke a clipper, they have/had sails

We could do with HMRC sponsoring us, they seem to have plenty of money coming in these days!

Or British Gas !!!!!! Nice profits this week..

But preferably not RBS, unless it's out of their bonuses.

If what I've been told is right I've got to say well done Wakefield. Another example of a club getting the sponsorship deal they deserve while the league can't!

Without spoiling the surprise it's a well known brand within the food and beverage industry (not coke before you ask) that's off the m1 rather than the m62.

Hofmann pies?

Nope

Are there more reasons to be cheerful?

Morrisons
