Three's contract ends with the FAI at the end of the month + Elverys are selling all the current gear off for little or nothing.

Has anyone heard if we'll be getting a new sponsor?

There was rumours BOI might take over as part of the deal in relation to the FAI's debt

Wouldn't surprise me if Three might reconsider things with the ongoing change at the FAI.

Are they sticking with NB as the kit supplier or is it only the sponsor that is changing. TIA.

Sticking with jacc sports as they had the licence for NB in ireland, however they also have the licence for Kappa, Under Armour, BlK and umbro so if I was a betting man I would think returning to umbro is on the cards similar to what happened at shamrock rovers.

Giventhat Niall Quinn is friends with Boylesports founder John Boyle the  Belfast bookies may have been an option?    

However as Boylesports are a shirtsponsor of Birmingham city it's probably unlikely    
Double Maxim without doubt the greatest drink in the world

Yes, that’s the most likely outcome. Bank of Ireland will have their logo plastered on the new shirt in return for knocking X million Euro off the €55m debt

i think BofI are on fairly shaky ground at the minute. Their share price halved over COVID. I’d be surprised if they wanted to sponsor anyone. 

I’ve always wondered about companies with no presence outside of Ireland sponsoring the national team. 3 operates in many European countries so they get exposure on our jerseys in qualis and tournaments. Opel the same. Eircom, why would they bother sponsoring an international team?

They get feck all exposure as the teams don’t wear sponsored jerseys. And I doubt any fans in other countries would suddenly have decided to switch to three because Irish fans had the logo on their jerseys.

In saying that, sponsorship has always baffled me in general, it obviously works for them but I don’t think I’ve ever been persuaded to buy one product over another because of it

I think this is the most likely too. Given the debacle that is the FAI I can't see many outside the likes of Paddy Power who would want to be associated. Sponsorship as part of the haircut on the debt makes sense.
