DCFC1388 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Just seen a short video clip of Mel Morris being interviewed outside Pride Park with Amazon flags outside the main entrance, cant say I have seen these there before. New sponsor or maybe a documentary being filmed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EtoileSportiveDeDerby Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 A few days ago there was a recruitment fair at PP for Amazon to go and work for them nothing to do with football as far as i understand. Might be the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LazloW Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Is there a single company we could be associated with that some people wouldn’t find a negative associated it?

Be so sad I'm not keen on them as a company but I still buy stuff off them. I'm an awful consumer. But then, everybody know sports direct are pooholes but someone is buying their trainers (Gary?)

The same Unicef that was wrapped up in several sex scandals last year involving people they should have been protecting? There are very few sponsors of any kind that everyone would support, I suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbles Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I think how much Mel has changed his ways these past 2 years is extraordinary. He said about growing the brand and he sure is doing so. We are twice as big of a club as we was before and the pulling power we have currently is unbelievable.. You can see that he has a growth plan in place and he's seriously determined.. People may critisise him sometimes but personally I feel he is one of the best owners we have ever had, we may not have premier league football yet but we're certainly heading towards that.. If there is some sort of sponsorship or whatever from Amazon, one of the biggest companies in the world, then, again, we are seriously growing as a club. All I can really say is that we are seriously lucky to have Mel as an owner, the amount of pish we have had to go through with our managers etc and for us to always come out stronger than before, is fantastic. There has never been a more perfect time to be a Derby fan, and get behind the team and the club as a whole, than right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
