Stake was £10m a year wasn't it?
I'd be willing to believe that, with 6 or 7 premier league clubs all looking for a sponsor to replace betting companies at the same time, it could be quite tough to find a decent deal.
Sounds like this CMC deal is just keeping the status quo from the stake deal.

Sad news given who they're run by.
Problem is, you kind of need to leave these feelings at the door otherwise you're eliminating potential deals before they've been sounded out, despite how good they are for the club.

£12m/year. I think there are around 10 clubs looking for new shirt sponsors this year so think it is a tough market.
It sounds like Stake will replace Christopher Ward though on the shirt sleeve.
