hasper57saint Posted 8 June, 2016 Share Posted 8 June, 2016 Perhaps now Sky won't be so keen to show a Saints match with the main oppositions Logo on our shirts.This could mean we will get more 3pm kick offs to suit the fans rather than Rupert Murdochs bank account.

Saint Billy Posted 8 June, 2016 Share Posted 8 June, 2016 Great news, saw this as a rumoured possibility a couple of months back but never thought it was a goer. Excellent. Had Virgin cable and broadband a couple of years back and thought it was an awful service but to be fair Sky is not much better. In any case who gives a ****, the brand is well known and is much more credible than having Wonga on your shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint IQ Posted 8 June, 2016 Share Posted 8 June, 2016 It's got to be done. Drop the St and get the bible bashers frothing at the mouth! On wiki her nicknames are Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God, Virgin Mary, Saint Mary, Mother Mary..So Virgin St Mary's would still fit https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=virgin+mary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sotonjoe Posted 8 June, 2016 Share Posted 8 June, 2016 "Virgin Media has accepted a $23.3bn (£15bn) takeover by American cable tycoon John Malone's Liberty Global in a deal that threatens to topple Rupert Murdoch's dominance of pay television by creating Europe's largest broadband business.The new company will have its headquarters in the UK, and serve 25 million customers in 14 countries including Germany, Belgium, Switzerland and the Netherlands." But that's not accurate. You can't buy virgin media branded products anywhere other than the uk. virgin media is a uk company serving the uk only . Parent company Liberty Global might well own companies selling services in other countries but that's a different matter entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M271 Posted 8 June, 2016 Share Posted 8 June, 2016 I gives more chance of looking good, so long as it doesn't mean a giant white stuck on panel to make their red writing show up. Would look good on Rank Xerox / Air Florida style from the early 1980s, with the broad white centre panel. Although the news release shows white logo on red background which would suit an Ajax style shirt, and make our new manager feel at home!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mulletsaint Posted 8 June, 2016 Share Posted 8 June, 2016 I gives more chance of looking good, so long as it doesn't mean a giant white stuck on panel to make their red writing show up. Unless we have an all red kit or one with a large central panel, I'd suggest it'll either need a big white area around it (not necessarily rectangle), or they'll use a black version of the logo. Can't see it would have enough stand-out to keep them happy otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
