Official club agents?

Post by CreamofSumYungGai »

What does this mean? Is this just them giving us some money to get their name out there or as a 'club partner', are we tying in to something above the usual sponsorship deals?

Not sure but I've heard the club (Macklin maybe?) speak about partners rather than sponsors so I think that just could be to do with language.

This so called 'leading figure' in the sports management industry seems only to have been incorporated in the past six months.

I don't know why a club would actively seek a sports agent partner, the more realistic explanation to me is that they simply have paid us some cash, from their point of view an association with us gives them a veneer of legitimacy.

Be interesting to find out - maybe our youngsters will be encouraged to go with them?

Would there be a conflict of interest issue there?
