Thursday, 23 July 2009

Cuckoo Design in Manchester has put its money where its (erm) beak is by partnering up with Bury football club.

Cuckoo supports Bury FC
Manager regrets his choice of subs
The Shakers are celebrating their 125th year this season and have asked 125 companies to donate £1,250 to help fund the team.

As a member of the “125 Company Partnership” Cuckoo will receive advertising in every match day programme and on the electronic scoreboard, full corporate hospitality for 10 people at one match and a pitch-side billboard at Gigg Lane - which the club shares with FC United.

The agency is also sponsoring Roach Dynamos Junior Football Club, who play in the local Bury leagues and also happen to be part-managed by sales director Steve Wheatley:

"At Cuckoo were keen to demonstrate support to our local community, so by encouraging junior football and also being involved with a professional club as highly regarded as Bury FC we’ve found the perfect opportunity.

"We have some avid Bury FC fans at Cuckoo so they are obviously particularly happy and we’ll all be watching with great interest on 11th August when Bury are live on Sky Sports versus West Brom.”

Let me get this right... it's actually £1,250. Clearly counting (not just as in 'news') is a problem?

AB - your lack of attention to detail must be a 'gift'.

You're right AB, it's still not news.
