New Sponsor - Dare Iced Coffee announced as Principal Partner

[sonnywalters]

i may be wrong but didnt somebody say Big M is in the same company as Dare????
So well done to Thunda
But honourable mention to Crasha who was all over the milk thingy early days.

Same same but different... Both ultimately owned by Lion.... But different 'brands' and different companies.

(Remember the Big M ads of the 80s. Awesome!)

Now I can finally justify my addiction to Dare iced coffee, I guess...

So glad it didn't turn out to be Barista Bros cause that stuff is nasty.

C'mon, it's not that ba...

Good work, Matt Finnis! As long as we continue getting sponsorship money through the door, we'll be alright, and this is a decent get as well.

I wonder if this was the same company the OP had in mind when they started the thread or this was a successful pitch with a different company.

DARE relatively new to the scene, after the thread had been started.

Also owned by Lion. So basically one step removed from beer.
This has to be good!

Great stuff. A new sponsor. I'd buy one if I could. Enjoy an iced coffee. Not a big item over here. It's 2 degrees this morning. Sun out, looks lovely, but it's cold.

Hot coffee coming up!

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Dare iced coffee is the only iced coffee.

All the others are inferior and they have small willies.

 

[Jack Stevens]

Well one decision in life just got a lot easier.

I for one welcome our new iced coffee overlords

 

[LennyStarkiller]

DARE to dream that this group of players will get us that second premiership

 

[Persevering Saint]

Y'know Ahmed Saad will love this sponsorship.


... and NO, not because you can drink them for the caffiene to improve your performance!

... but BECAUSE, they use ARABica beans!

Does this mean I have to give up Ice Break?

Persevering Saint are you giving up FUIC?

 

[sverik25]

Dare is actually a good brand name to have plastered all over your jumper and that too.

I'll be interested to see if we get a more detailed reporting of the amount of $ we are getting (we probably wont), but even if it's just a "multimillion-dollar" deal as reported there it means that at minimum it's $1m/pa for two years. That's a large part of the loss we made last year gone and even more should go if our membership numbers improve. Good stuff!

Not quite as simple as that, as Ledified's contribution will drop a little bit, but it's certainly good for the balance sheet.

I wonder if the old jokes (with some truth within) about players being unhappy about Seaford due to missing their coffee fix actually sparked this idea in the first place.

Anybody from here actually gonna head down to the launch to have a look & score a free drink???

If I wasn't stuck in an office I would, just so I can scream syringe and point, but otherwise yeah it'd be good to go to one of these promotional things.
