You sort of get the It takes a while for people to embrace it And then afterwards if the sponsorship changes People will still continue to call it that for a while Just to get used to it Yeah you've got the flow on effect Because I imagine if you want to sign up to a partnership or a sponsorship of something like that,

you're going to have to be in for at least 10 years for it to sink in because you've got to wash out the previous one. That's 24 months. Then you enjoy six to eight years of wonderful branding and then you pass that burden on to the next sponsor who has to deal with the 24 months of confusion But yeah We are in the middle
