this Bud's for you

"The F.A. Cup with Budweiser"?

 

"Budweiser Player of the Round"?

 

 

Does the F.A. have no sense of dignity? What a disgrace!

OMG a new thread .............................?

[Dr Who?]

I don't know what to do with this new thing that has turned up on the list.

 

Anyway, it is and always will be about the money, when it comes to the FA and in football in general.

 

Just look at our televised games for example.

I had no idea that they sponsored the FA cup, i take no notice.

It was the FA Cup, is the FA Cup and always will be the FA Cup.

 

I feel Bud have wasted their money.

BBC News reports (19 January 2012):

 

Beer 'must be sold' at Brazil World Cup, says Fifa.

 

"Beer must be sold at all venues hosting matches in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, football's world governing body, Fifa, has insisted.

 

Fifa General Secretary Jerome Valcke said the right to sell beer must be enshrined in a World Cup law the Brazilian Congress is considering.

 

Alcoholic drinks are currently banned at Brazilian stadiums and the country's health minister has urged Congress to maintain the ban in the new law.

 

Brewer Budweiser is a big Fifa sponsor.

 

Mr Valcke is visiting Brazil to press for progress on the much-delayed World Cup law.

 

Fifa has become frustrated, because voting on the legislation has been held up in Congress by the dispute over alcohol sales.

 

The Brazilian government has also failed to resolve differences with Fifa over cut-price tickets for students and senior citizens, and demands for sponsors of the World Cup to have their trademarks protected."
