Your obsession with us is getting disturbing. 

Please don't have a mental breakdown.

This was pure cringe.

Sydney FC had just been dicked then drawn and quartered by Melbourne Victory in one of the most one sided grand finals since 6-0 and then this happened.

Took me forever. I just found it. Tell 'em Ivan!


I have no idea about film editing and production stuff, but it looks like Brankos been pasted into that, like he's done it on a green screen or something. 

Either way, cringeworthy as fuck/

Jim Mowing sponsoring Adel Utd deserves on honourable mention.

Prob the worst i saw was in season 3 when Victory hosted Sydney FC at Etihad. TAC were our sponsors and at HT played a video with kids chanting trying to get the crowd signing "keeping the support...aaahlive, keeping the support ahhhhlliiivveee"
Similar to "ohhhhh Melbourne we love you".
I honestly couldnt believe my eyes when i saw it.



Pretty sure it was Jims Plumbing.

The ALF has some of worst shit marketing to its fans.

Sponsor logos all over cheer squad flags, banners and the like is pretty piss poor but widely accepted.

I'm sure Richmond got the crowd to try and sign "horses" at half time because Bingle are their sponsors and wanted to replicate their ad.

Not just AFL. Cathy Freeman was the No.1 fan of the Cronulla Sharks for a number of years after the Sydney Olympics. Peter Costello was then named as the No.1 fan so they could milk government money out of him to upgrade the stadium. I don't think he attended a game.

Thought there was more of this crap

Jerks offered members a free Maccas smoothie if Emile Heskey scored a goal in the upcoming home game. He scored 2, against Victory, even considering Mark Milligan tried to handball save one of them and appealed for a pen & red card as opposed to the goal :lol: the promo was cringeworthy as hell until we were all happily sipping our smoothies :lol:

The Mariners abortion Viking mascot thing was and is the most cringeworthy thing I've seen.

Masterminds at FFA are working on more great ideas like this as we speak probably.
