Manchester United agreed sponsorship with AoN
Posted by r41nb0w on June 4, 2009
AoN will be replacing AIG as the main sponsor for Manchester United. The sponsorship will start from season 2010 – 2011. It is a 4-year, at total 80-million pounds. So it will be 20 millions a year, better than AIG’s 14 millions a year. To make it sweet, it is the highest shirt sponsorship at the moment.
The thing is, I wonder why since the Glazers took over the club, United’s sponsors are always the company working in the insurance and risk management sectors. Maybe it is because the high debt that he introduced when he took over. So, in case something bad happens, the insurance company will pay him some money. Ha!
Anyway, I am looking forward how the AoN will fit in the united jersey!
~btw, AoN = Almost on Nineteen! Watch out Liverpool!

since the glazers took over, american companies broke sponsorship record deals twice -AIG and now AON just blew everyone out of the water. This shows their guile as business men and will certainly help towards financing the debt.
i recently wrote an article about the debt (and how it is serviceable) and would appreciate any comments/visits, cheers
