Sports Prophet Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 As swift as the St George Dragons made public the decision to pursue Israel Falou, IKEA have shelved talks of a sponsorship agreement with the Dragons which shares a home with one of IKEA’s major stores. An IKEA statement was issued today citing difference in culture between the two organisations. “We are a proud organisation that strives to deliver fantastic household items for all Australians and IKEA have decided to end discussions of a corporate partnership with St George Dragons as the club has demonstrated no obvious respect or need for trophy cabinets in the foreseeable future.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like that black & white film about two blokes and a woman John, "But it was not allowed." Only in french. And did you pick up all the possible political intrusions or just mine John? IKEA would be an excellent TGG sponsor, and getting all moral about the product or the origins involved is probably something RL can little afford right at this moment in history. Or are morals and history banned from libraries, forums and general discussion too? 2 warning points Non-Political Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnM Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 The IKEA reference from earlier posts is strange. Their stuff is mainly fine, very popular, easy to assemble, and has brought modern furniture etc to many. Economy of scale, too, keeps prices reasonable. I guess some people joke about it for a cheap laugh. I certainly used to do that.. Before I actually ever shopped there. Perhaps there's a Puritan streak in some people who see drinking, betting, indeed anything popular and enjoyable as something the huddled masses of RL supporters should be denied.
