Perhaps too many users just aren't funny so shouldn't try to be?... |

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Can't belive that the RFL are letting them get away with still using them, and the freel prestige associated with 'sponsoring' the SL.
Well, next time I need multinational long haulage I won't be going to Stobart !'"
Still very much a mixed message though , they have on them " It's all about following your local team " 
So how does that work then ?  |

It just seems a strange ' strap line ' to put on an advertising board that is likely to be tens if not hundreds of miles from the club on the sign ?
As for them still being used , well done Mr Wood  , free advertising  |

Yep, and those lorries are worth £2 million over 2 years, we are absolutely coining it in, the only problem is how to spend the cash

You score 1 point for each Eddie Stobart spotted, and 10 points for a SL truck ! |

I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure I remember hearing that with the sponsorship arrangement with stobart no money was involved?
They sponsored us and so received advertising on tv via games while we were advertised on their trucks in order to spread the game... if this is true they are advertising us and receiving nothing in return... surely we come out on top in this arrangement?

Mummy duck is now thoroughly depressed. SHE was the one that was famous for losing five in a row........until the 2011 GF!!!!!: |

After all the complaints about the Stobart "advertising" I have seen more SL trucks in the last month than I did during the whole of the 2012 season. I commute along the M56 and Tuesday last week saw 3 of them on one journey. As previously stated, if they are getting nothing in return its surely a win-win for RL '

(although given that it was a crap idea when it was first brought in...its still a crap idea!)
