"Manchester City sign partnership deal with Puma worth at least £1bn Deal with kit manufacturer runs until at least 2035 Contract worth £100m a year, up from £65m a year".

Talk about a PSR workaround!

Dangerous, as when pep leaves there is no guarantee they will win the league every season

Man City agree Premier League record £1bn kit deal

Manchester City extend their kit partnership with Puma for at least 10 years, with the contract understood to be worth a minimum of £1bn, making it the largest deal in the Premier League.

"That figure surpasses the £90m deal signed by rivals Manchester United with Adidas in 2023, while champions Liverpool will also be with the same manufacturer from this season after agreeing a reported, external £60m a season."

£100m city
£90m man utd
£60m rs

throw this cwc rubbish and the mega bucks that's paid off the select few, and suddenly it's been a nice little earner this summer.

And now they've given themselves an extended Champions league and the brand new PSR Cup ! Luckily the Super league didn't quite make it..

A separate super league would have evened the playing field a bit for those that were left. I wouldn't miss playing the "big 6". We're currently in a closed shop and will never win another title unless it's a Leicester type miracle.

But I think your point is that there is already a super league in all but name.

Still less than Barça’s renewed deal with Nike - €132M annually, 1.7-1.8 Billion in total thru 2038 (Including provision to increase with market value increases)

Wouldn't it be nice if everton got a nice little earner post castore.

Yes I would have preferred them to just leave after initial disgust, I also said at the time, ( I thought they were leaving our leagues) to never let them back. The reason as you say it would have created a much more level playing field. Look at Liverpool the nett spend Champions of socialism, they whinged they couldn't compete.

who then a few years ago were breaking record transfer deals for a central defender and a goalkeeper within weeks, they couldn't compete, the poor dears. Now they've broke the British transfer record again and are willing to actually break that one if they can get Issak. Man City just got a 1 Billion kit deal, United's is only £900m, Chelsea are a law unto themselves, just spunk £60/70 million transfers whenever they want, they held the previous transfer record buying Caceido from Brighton, they sell Hotels, their ladies team to themselves all under the watchful eyes of our premier league regulators, Masters and Co.

Bournemouth/ Brentford are being decimated by the sly 6, all the best players hoovered up for the sly 6's ever increasing squads. Man City have tied Masters up for eight or nine years through the courts, everyone can see they are guilty, yet the only teams that are done are Everton twice and Nottingham Forest, both docked points for being marginally over the psr threshhold within a year, including appeals. The latest swindle by the big clubs after increasing the size of the laughingly called Champions league, more money, is the newly formed PSR Cup, whatever it's called. The financial gap is getting bigger by the year, it's something that will never come close to being bridged, the Premier league is a five team competition and always will be if things remain the same. Super league already here ? It's been eclipsed by greedy owners who always want more. Sorry long winded rant over.

Don't see many,if any citeh shirts up here in Scotland.

Success breeds.

If you to to Asia, America you dont see Villa, Newcastle, Everton... you see United, City & Liverpool.

Just the way it is. That's why I wont complain about the £20m from Castore. Far higher than wed ever get from any of the "major" Brands who spend their money where theyll get most recognition

Success with United is definitely a term that we can use here very loosely

What's funny is that we were with Chang for beards and it amounted to nothing abroad. We're just crap at marketing, especially international, and Castore are probably the first ripoff that we've done that actually makes financial sense for us, rather than "new and improved 20m deal for the next 10 years" or whatever we had with previous sponsors.

Same with Stake - 10m per season isn't a lot but it's roughly the minimum we should be looking at. Cazoo was similar (9 or 10) and Chang were 4-5.

25 years of sustained "success", and branding, means United hang on popularity wise, but as new generations come, they could easily fall behind, but very true!!

Weirdly, the time we signed James, it felt wed cracked the market, alas that soon dwindled.

Had Howard, Donovan at one stage. Howard saved 14 against Belgium and we couldn't flog shirts due to a deal we struck 10 years previously

Go to Thailand and everything is Chang. 10 years? 1 trip. Then returned for the PL Cup and couldn't sell merchandise cause of our deal with Kitbag/Fanatics.

Thankfully the dark age is over and we're actually commanding good figures.

 

[DualityNSNO]

Go to Thailand and everything is Chang.

A colleague of mine went there several times while they were sponsoring us and couldn't find me any Everton... anything. You'd think after 20 years or so of partnership we'd have a foothold there, but no, Leicester were everywhere

We failed to capitalise on Hamez but the pandemic also didn't help - we were sort of the talk of the town with him and Ancelotti, but it was TV only at the time, people were locked in, etc., and it just didn't work out for us (which in a way is absolutely vintage Everton).

Hopefully we're right and we're out of this dark age, but time will tell.

When company’s such as these are prepared to put these sort of deals out there, they’re clearly confident that these teams will continue to dominate their domestic league and have high profiles internationally.
Further evidence that football is fixed around maintaining a status quo for certain teams.

What's the point of other teams even trying? Time to turn pro football off and enjoy real competition with non-league.
