Title: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: Sunday8pm on October 29, 2006, 01:12:21 PM Hi,
Basically the local football team i play for are looking for a new kit. We are a pretty reasonable side, currently 2nd place in the 1st division in our local league. We are also in the County cup and looking strong in it so far. The cost of the kit would be approx £250. Anybody interested can choose the logo by all means but i would appreciate it if the kit could be kept to our traditional colours of Black and Red. I think this would be a good oppurtunity to advertise as the key market (i think) would be young/middle aged men! The team play in the Bury and District League and play in the Suffolk Sunday Cup. Details of our team (Walsham le Willows) can be found here http://www.bdsfl.f9.co.uk/ Anybody interested please feel free to email with any questions. kind regards, Ben Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: mikkyT on October 29, 2006, 01:19:35 PM Make your colours black and yellow and blonde may very well dig deep ;)

Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: Sunday8pm on October 29, 2006, 01:26:48 PM LOL
well im open for negotiation i guess! Although the problem there being is we could do with the kit quite soon for our (touchwood) cup run. The league also wouldn't let us change our colours mid season. The current kit is a mess with people wearing odd socks etc, its emabarassing turning up to these county cup games where the other team have tracksuits, teambuses and god knows what else. Theres an idea, if someone fancies buying us a bus id be thankful :) Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: Royal Flush on October 29, 2006, 01:36:39 PM Make your kit grey with little arrows on it and MikkyT may well dig deep . I just wet myself Post of the week Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: MrMoves on October 29, 2006, 01:44:44 PM I'm guessing fans at these games are generally family and friends? Not including players, how many people on average will see the shirt and logo?
Advertisers need value for money. As exposure from this level of football is likely to be very low, where can ad advertiser expect to recoup his £250? Who else plays online poker apart from yourself? Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: booder on October 29, 2006, 01:46:20 PM Who else plays online poker apart from yourself? i do :hello: Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: MrMoves on October 29, 2006, 01:47:42 PM Who else plays online poker apart from yourself? i do :hello: and play in the same football league? Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: booder on October 29, 2006, 01:50:07 PM Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: MrMoves on October 29, 2006, 01:51:10 PM Careful Booder you're in serious danger of being funny.
Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: Sunday8pm on October 29, 2006, 01:56:37 PM We have around anywhere between 20-50 spectators at our games, These dont tend to be families, usually pub regulars.
The reason i asked was i see that USA Poker have now started sponsoring Pub Poker leagues across the country. Nearly all Sunday football teams are 'Pub' teams. We play 9 other teams per season in the league. Thats 9 sets of 15 players = 135 people from the desired target range. Lets say an average of 20 potential poker players as spectators per game, including away fans = 180 from the desired target range. We also play in 3 different cups, County Cup, Division 1 cup and the League cup. Id say we will probably play around 9 cup games this season, thats another load of spectators plus the county cup games we travel so thats spreads the name to another area. So let me put these (estimated figures) into perspective. We will be seen by around 500 people per season in the kit. Realistically around 5% of these will sign up. I think £250 rake can quite quickly be generated by around 25 people. Regarding your quesdtion about me being the only player in the team. The team are all good mates and have a weekly recreational homegame usually with 6-8 players. None of these lads play online either so i think that would also be a good oppurtunity to get them into online poker. I hope i have answered your questions Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: MrMoves on October 29, 2006, 01:58:36 PM Thanks Ben.
Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: Sunday8pm on October 30, 2006, 11:52:06 AM I'll give it one last shot!
BUMP!! note - Im also quite happy to chip in say 50% of the cost of the kit if necessary! Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: smithy69 on October 30, 2006, 11:57:55 AM GOOD LUCK BEN , i KNOW WALSHAM WELL!!!!!!
I used to play for Haverhill Rovers, and played a little bit at Bury Town. If only I was as fit as I would like I may well have asked for a game. Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: Colchester Kev on October 30, 2006, 11:59:20 AM I will send a jar of bovril for the half time drinks in winter :)

Only reason i ever go watch Ipswich Town play! Done deal Kev ;) Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: Sunday8pm on October 30, 2006, 12:05:48 PM Smithy,
When i left Ipswich at 16 i started College in Bury and was playing for the academy side there. Nice club and good set up. I see Haverhill had a good tie against Aldershot in the FA Cup 4th prelim. 1700 attendance can't be bad! Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: smithy69 on October 30, 2006, 12:14:45 PM LOL -I was in the Haverhill Academy side, the 1st year they ran it.
Do you know a lad called kenny Brooks, he used to play in the Bury Academy team Title: Re: Advertising Oppurtunity for a Poker Site Post by: tikay on October 30, 2006, 12:36:08 PM I was in the Middlesex Academy Under 5's the year we swept the board & won everything. I pretty much retired after that. What else was there to achieve in football?

I've heard you were also involved in the famous game where William Webb Ellis picked up the ball and ran with it, thus inventing the game of Rugby.
