It could have been a lot worse, The Durex South or The Payday Pig South - vans feel slightly comforting in this context

Do all the conference premier, north & south clubs recieve a share of the £2 million? I'm sure it's not confidential and we all want SUFC to get every pound it can ⚽️⚽️⚽️

Oh dear! How very down market! I am no fan of Vauxhall, but the old GM Vauxhall conference had some dignity and restraint as a name! Skrill was a tad ropey, Vanaraaarrrmaraarama League is piss poor. However, let's win it anyway!

Being sponsored by a loss making betting company, an online payment company no one uses and can't fulfil the commitment or by van rental company. My choice would always be the latter of the three!

Cant really see all the fuss here. Yes, Vanorama, may be a slightly odd name but it probably sticks in peoples minds which is what the brand will want (their radio jingle on Talk Sport certainly sticks in the mind and I have even found myself humming along on a particularly boring motorway drive).
Van sales/rentals are nothing to be ashamed of and as mentioned above, it is probably more edifying to some than online gambling companies and others. If it was the Wonga Conference I would be less pleased personally.
The official statement looks encouraging although Skrill probably made similar noises so we can only see how it all pans out in the end. Somebody mentioned established sponsorship arrangements such as Ryman League etc but there must have been a time when they were brand new sponsors with no history in football. Who knows, Vanorma might stick around for a few years and we may be challenging for the Vanorama Conference Premier title in a couple of seasons time!

Some people won't be happy unless the league is sponsored either by Pukka Pies or Fullers Brewery...

Pukka Pies : now there's a thought. Obviously they are not as good as the pies available from Roses at half time though!!

Depends what flavour Least it's good to see the word "Conference" return to the name of the league for the first time in 5 years.

Fullers sponsor the Surrey County League and have done so for 22 years
