    This international partnership comes at a particularly appropriate time for us — we’re currently hard at work to launch Global by US Mobile.

    I think any legit sponsor like this one and the club should be applauded for casting the net wider. Nobody grumbled when we had a tiny garage on Huddersfield Road (Hayselden).

    Especially in the states if your company has association with a sporting entity it does draw attention.

    So what they have a couple of thousand follows on twitter, ISOFT probably would have had 5 or 6 it it was still about.

    If a thousand Americans decide to buy a shirt, it's a pebble thrown into a big pond but at least a ripple has started.

    I'm saying well done BFC, maybe opening the door for a bigger deal across the pond.

    Trying to understand your thinking. Would you buy a shirt of a sports team if it was sponsored by your mobile phone provider?

    There is mention on their website of an upcoming global network launch, which makes me think they're expanding.

    Edit: just realised Gordon Owen has supplied the quote above.

    Maybe if offered a deal and I was into footy as a US citizen. Amazon grew from a small online bookstore to the giant it is now, who knows where US Mobile might end up they seem to have a good offering when I had a look at the deals.

    I just get people knocking the deal.

    It's been quoted as the biggest financial deal of its type ie shirt sponsor for us, so what is there not to like about it.

    Again well done BFC, hope the partnership goes from strength to strength.

    I’d have preferred the Ramones eagle logo but this one is pretty cool looking and I can’t see any reason to knock the deal.
