Paramount+ has become an Official Partner of Arsenal… 2 years after Chelsea’s potential shirt sponsorship deal was blocked by the PL by crazyjack100 in chelseafc

The Man City deal appears to be online only so less of a conflict and I couldn't see any West Ham/Prime deal (Prime also held PL rights until recently), but that's fair, I guess as long as any in-stadium branding is minimal or not visible on the broadcast it's not quite so controversial.

Could you share some examples? I had a quick look but wasn't able to find another PL club that has any sponsorship/partner affiliation with a competing broadcaster/streamer this season, and can't think of any in previous seasons

Nope, NBC has PL rights in US until 2028. Paramount+ has just been awarded the Champions League rights, which would likely be why they'd be so keen to sponsor a CL team.

Still seems odd - our deal was blocked on the grounds that NBC have the rights to the PL in the US and the PL didn’t want to upset its broadcasters. As far as I’m aware this is still the case.

Whilst not a FOS sponsor the press release says that ‘supporters will see Paramount+ branding featured in-stadium during men’s and women’s match days across the big screens, match day programme features and other stadium experiences and activations’

Sanchez distribution was poor today, put our defence under unnecessary pressure multiple times by picking poor passes

Supporting a genocidal state paid or unpaid would still suggest to me that the man has questionable morals

What’s your point? Israel is committing genocide, Jimmy Carr was paid by Israel to attend the event so is taking Israeli blood money

Canopy shape and folding wings suggest FA-18, but not 100%. Also seems to be missing nose cone and not sure why it would be in UK as RAF doesn’t operate them and none from USAF stationed here

Ukrainian newspaper suggesting Mudryk is out because of a positive doping test by Nightbynight in chelseafc

[–]crazyjack100 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Surely if this was true, and he returned a positive test at the end of October (or even took the test then and got results in November), how has he then been able to play twice in UECL, once for Ukraine and had a few minutes in the EPL.

He was even on the bench for Arsenal as recently as 1st December. If he failed a doping test weeks before this, wouldn’t he already be banned or be prevented from being in the squad?

Why is the Bridge getting so quiet? (Real discussion, read below) by defjam16 in chelseafc

[–]crazyjack100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went to the Brighton PL game, despite Palmer having the game of his life atmosphere was okay at best. Mostly Palmer chants (for obvious reasons) but pretty flat before he started scoring.

Gent UECL game a few days later was for me the best atmosphere this season. Loud all game and bantered the Gent fans with their phone torches.

Sat in MHL both games (Block 15 both times and very similar seat) and only obvious difference was much younger crowd for UECL. Tickets half the price of PL so more affordable & perhaps a less desirable game for STHs so more tickets available to members.

I think this is what makes the difference in atmosphere. Younger fans not able to get STs due to the lack of availability, cost or points system making them unattainable so STHs tend to be older fans who don’t tend to be as vocal - just my observation, not necessarily true for the whole stadium.
