PIF set to walk away from major off-field Newcastle deal

Posted by

Newcastle are set to walk away from their kit sponsorship deal with Castore. 

There have been concerns from Newcastle due to Castore being unable to deal with the demand of fans wanting shirts and there is a possibility that they could return to a sponsorship with Adidas.

That’s according to journalist Jordan Cronin, who claims they are exploring the possibility of ending the deal early.

“They haven’t been able to deal with the demand of Newcastle United fans wanting shirts, and there is a possibility that Newcastle will explore an early exit from the Castore deal. There’s certainly scope to get Castore out early and maybe go back to having that sentimental feeling of having Adidas on the shirt because obviously, we all remember Adidas from the ‘Entertainers’ years,” said Cronin, speaking to Loaded Mag NUFC’s Youtube channel.

  1. Why would you stay with a business that can’t provide you with a quality product?? Would you accept heinze baked beans with flavourless sauce????

  2. Its true they are struggling with the fans demands for shirts. A lot of fans have been getting shirts with things missing and the quality is very poor…

  3. Castore have produced some of the worst Newcastle shirts in a long time
    Time cut loose & bring back adidas great football shirts

  4. I don’t really like castore because in the last two seasons I’ve had to take my shirts back because of the fitting if your xl in my height you have to buy 2xl which is not fair for a guy like me

  5. I’ve bought 2 anniversary t-shirts in the recent weeks. One S and one 4XL for a friend. Both fitted fine and feel good one both of us. Can’t fault them.

    Although I do get that the actual financial benefit from the deal Adhley made with them is not good enough. At the end of the day they’ll want what’s most beneficial taking into account all things.

  6. Adidas owned FIFA marketing as a result of a deal with Havelange/Blatter. Allegations of brown envelopes all round. I would prefer we took a more ethical partner. Just saying like….
