Now, I love that Sheeran supports us, promotes us and has raised our profiles in places and to demographics football doesn’t typically resonate.
I also think he comes across as a pretty sincere and nice person who genuinely cares.
But I hate his music still (I wish I could like it but it’s not happened to date), find him a bit cringey and have never really wanted a shirt with his sponsorship on. Although infinitely better than other sponsors in this world, such as betting.
It’s a battleground in my mind I’ll never resolve, which annoys me.
Feels good to get that off my chest anyway.

I have his tattoos tattooed on my tattoos. |
Finally, some commitment x |  |

I’m not remotely technical enough to even bodge a half cover of that. Ed is a supremely talented musician and seems a really nice bloke, but his music isn’t my cup of tea, and I do feel weird wearing a shirt with his name or whatever on it, just because I wear a lot of band shirts in general.
It goes without saying that he’s better than Magical Vegas by a landslide, and he’s done wonders for the club. I’ve brought three shirts with his logo on it - but it doesn’t mean I love it. |
So you're calling Hoppy a liar? Publicly? It's the end of a friendship |  |

In the lobby bar on holiday lastnight the band playing done an ES song, daughters in her pink 3rd top, and random Americans were pointing out the sponsor as the song was on.
It’s great |  |

I don’t particularly understand why his music bothers so many people. It’s not my cup of tea but so what.
I could understand why it would be a battleground in your mind if a gambling firm was giving the club tens of millions per year. But not why Ed’s music generates that much negative emotion. There’s music that I don’t like but not hate - that sounds a tad excessive. |
He's no James Blunt. |  | | |

Given that Benjamin Britten failed to sponsor us I'm very happy with Ed. |  | | |

Words of a salty Powergen fan? 😉 Yet to see a sponsor whose logo tempted me to the club shop lol, but we've certainly had a couple which put me off.
Ed's up there with our best sponsors over the years and I like how his branding looks compared to most; sometimes forget I'm not just promoting maths symbols. | | | |

If it was Brian Eno sponsoring us I might be tempted to buy a shirt! |  | | |

It's being a Town fan that's the important bit tho isn't it? I have 4 of 'Ed's' shirts even tho I don't love his music (do love Eno tho btw!). | |

Imagine if Brian Cant had rocked up on Playschool in a Town Shirt... every kid of my age would have supported Ipswich and with all the kids and grandkids obviously following their dads team we'd now be the biggest club in the country bar none!..... I think🤔 |  | | |
