Can you imagine coming across Marouane Fellaini on Tinder?! Swipe left or right?
United in talks with Tinder for £12m sleeve sponsorship | Tinder team up with City instead
- Thread starter Baxter
- Start date
You'd have to swipe up to see his face.
Elbow swipe.
Definitely against this... Wouldn't want to wear a jersey with their logo on it and definitely won't get one for my 5yr old..
I can't imagine they'd go through with this, seems so inappropriate considering the brand of the club is aimed a all ages. That said, we have a noodle partner...
I'd imagine with Tinder being a service for over 18s the same rules will apply as alcohol and betting sponsors so won't appear on junior replica shirts. Seem to remember someone having Durex sponsor them and same applied there.
I don't think the noodles we sponsor are particularly slutty though.
Foundations
I'm amazed by the general consensus around here in a world where advertising of alcohol and Gambling is rife. You go to a stadium and there are constant billboards for companies like Betfred and BetCon, is it okay to advertise gambling to a child then? Even when you watch a game there are constant ads on tv for them. It's a dating app, it's not a terrorist organisation. Like people have also said, Payday loans are plastered over countless clubs.
Not that I'm personally saying I'm for or against this. Just seems like for some reason some things are seen as less acceptable than other things which are ultimately just as bad if not worse.

Hear Hear. In terms of being morally corrupt, there are a lot worse sponsors out there all over the place, where nobody batters an eyelid about.
I wouldn't care so much abt the 12m, but putting a cheap brand on our sleeve should be worth a lot more.
12m? Would hardly buy you a footballers arm these days ffs..
I'm trying to think of a dirty headline for this story...
It won't be for one season. And the way a transfer is amortized, that's probably more like a £60m player, or £250k/week for the wage bill. Better a bit of a shit but legit sponsor that some plastic oil club shit.
I'm surprised we've gone this long without a sleeve sponsor if I'm honest, but I suppose if we'll be getting £12m a year then the wait was worth it as that's one of the highest sleeve sponsorships? £12m on it doesn't sound like much, but when you add it to what's already being paid then it's a nice boost. If the opportunity is there you might aswell take it.
Tinder is slowly becoming more of social media platform than dating, in some countries you can even find jobs on there. Its really not as crass or tacky as a lot of people are making out. I'm sure some of people slating this deal haven't even used it.
Any company with 50 million customers and valued over a billion £'s can hardly be labelled a cheap brand. Probably hoping to use this deal to shift the perception most have that it's just a shag app. Though it is pretty good for that if that's what you're after.

of the blowing variety?
Obviously Tinder isn't a cigarette or alcohol brand, but is this sponsorship likely to happen considering it represents a hook-up site? A large percentage of our kit sales must come from kids and teenagers, with their parents not wanting them associated with the topic. Although, I suppose the sleeve logo could be dropped from non-adult strips?
"Daddy, Daddy, I want to go on Tinder... and drive a Chevrolet car!"

12 million is 12 million
It's a dating app. You're several years behind if you think it's largely used for hookups.
fixed.
If you are concerned about a logo on a shirt corrupting your children's minds then I strongly advise against you having kids.
Which is, incidentally, what I tell my penis when I'm on a Tinder date.
I'll see myself out.
From the old days of players wearing their heart on their sleeves, we're now at players wearing their cocks there. Good times!
Your username would suggest you're not much an advertisement for Tinder.
Someone wanna tell me how Tinder have £12mill in the first place? Plenty of Fish was the better of the Dating apps and i don't see that spunking money left and right.
Because you're very much in a minority in thinking POF is preferable to tinder.
My Caf identity is secret, being a member on a football forum for 12 years isn't exactly a turn on
Spunking left and right is far more Tinder's modus operandi.
12m? Isn't Tinder worth like a billion or something??
But yourself and many are okay wearing the swoosh symbol being stitched on using child labor in a sweatshop?
Somebody please think of the children...when it's convenient for me to get worked up about
What's your point?
The logo is only displayed on one sleeve and traditionally these kind of deals are worth about 20% of the main shirt sponsor deal.
Napoli already partner with Tinder
“Tinder is first and foremost a platform for meeting new people. We look forward to connecting fans with their favourite player.”

We should go for that. They'd certainly be making a point, considering the colour of our shirt.
Eh? I was responding to a post who was wondering how Tinder were able to throw around 12m
I hear ya.My Caf identity is secret, being a member on a football forum for 12 years isn't exactly a turn on
So if I wear Nike or Adidas products I need to accept whatever logos they put on the jersey?
Makes perfect sense
Yeah you were, missed that bit Sorry dude, spent too much time on RAWK today, it's dulled my senses.
