I heard that Jan Mølby brokered the deal himself  :D


But in all seriousness, the 'multi million' bit sounds promising...anyone know how much we're getting?

Gotta be worth a bit. Dunkin donuts are a huge company. They are as many Dunkin donuts drive thru's on the US as we have bookies.

They run a "America runs on Dunkin" ad campaign.

They do make bloody good donuts though

Yea it's the biggest donut company here in the states, everybody knows who they are. Very popular donuts and coffee, and for sure a household name.  It kinda made me laugh when I first saw this on the official site, but they are a huge company and can definitely afford to pay out a good chunk for a sports sponsorship like that.

Doughnuts are basically deep fried cake with a daily limit of sugar poured on top, not exactly what fit football players should be selling. Money coming in is good but I would rather it be chosen a little more responsibly. Food like this is a major reason why diabetes is through the roof.

I think that particular horse has already bolted mate, football teams have been sponsored by everything from brewers, betting shops, sugary drinks, collapsed banks, fast food outlets and pay day loan companies.
If someone waves money in their faces football clubs will grab it.
