StornowayBlue 630 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I guess it depends on the product but sponsors wouldn't pay out if there wasn't a direct correlation between advertising and sales. I tried Blackthorn after they appeared on our shirts but as stated its rubbish. I stopped drinking Magners though, as did many, when they got into bed with the hoops.

K.A.I 36,183 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Rangers having a sponsor doesn't make me want to go out and buy that brand but I'll happily boycott the taigs ones used to love New Balance trainers too Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brazz1972 397 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Back in the 80s and 90s sponsorships seemed as if they were part of the club. I always remember a specific sponsor when I think of a club and picture the shirt. Think now they change so often they don't have time to become iconic anymore. Obviously our McEwan's Lager ones stand out. Don't think I've ever went out my way to buy a product that Rangers have been sponsored with but did used to avoid buying the tarriers brand.

Bellshill_Bear 1,105 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Marketing and advertising isn't designed to make you go out and buy something for the sake of it. It's designed to make brands recognisable. Subconsciously if you are faced with a choice between an unknown brand and a known brand most people will always go for the brand they recognise.Sun on iously through billboards, sponsorship, adverts on telly, catchy songs punchlines (compare the meerkat) these embed brands into your mind making them familiar.

Corky True Legend 2,682 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Gave up on Magners for the same reason. Also gave up on Tennants as they are the same group, as are Blackthorn and Caledoia Best. If you drink any of them, you are supporting the mhanks.

Ozblue 4,331 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I'm still using ntl and drinking McEwans. I only wear Adidas (as per Legii Warszawa) and drink Polish Zywiec piwo, so does that make me a fucking immigrant Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
