This company shows that communication isn’t always the right way forward. We already have an owner who is an absolutely clown to put it politely however this company definitely want to give him a run for his money (lol) when it comes to being the most outrageous.

To be honest I understand why they are constantly ****ed off but a little bit of DD before becoming sponsor is all that was needed to see they wouldn’t have it easy. I’d much prefer that we didn’t have them as a sponsor next year as we don’t need the drama with them too.

With their social media posts, I do get why people are jumping to this conclusion, I do.

However, they have put well over 6 figure sums into this Club to keep us going, and you think things have been bad this season, without PG Site Services and their funds, we would have had games cancelled, we wouldn’t have been able to travel to certain away matches, and in all likelihood, we’d be talking about the phoenix club a lot than we had done earlier this season.

Put that aside, they stuck a lot of money behind the bar before what was potentially our last ever home game too for the fans to have a few drinks.

They agreed to be our sponsor for 5 years, a real can of worms will be opened if it’s cut short at the end of the season…

Forget DD, it's just not very classy.

Think some of us supporters need a reality check.
The saying “Beggars can’t be choosers “ comes to mind.
PG our main sponsors don’t have the best communications and do seem a bit dramatic at times.
But let’s not knock them, they have been more than generous to our club, without the extra funding we the club may have folded.
 
It seems, as people are alluding to that they've been lied to, which is why the frustration is coming out, agree they are going the wrong about it, but if they've invested alot of money I can understand

I don't think many people disagree with that.

I personally think what they're doing is classless and a also embarrassing regardless of any justification.
 
BoyWonder2 you say they agreed to be our sponsor for the next 5 years, was a contract signed , if so and they break that contract, do the club have any recourse they can follow for break of contract . I understand they have put a lot of money into the club ,but that by no means gives them the right to dictate to the club ,they have got what they paid for thats naming rights on the shirts.

No disputing the fact they have put a lot of money in but the way they conduct themselves is absolutely mind blowing. Have you ever seen another sponsor behaving in the same way they have? Every single social media post they put gets more negative reaction that a positive reaction, they act like spoilt little children and their professionalism is shocking. They had a great opportunity to come out of this whole situation looking very good and enhancing their rep. Fair play on them for the money they have put in but I don’t think that excuses them for their unprofessional behaviour on social media.
