17 years..... never realised it was so long,

I worked for them from 1996 to 2000 and was a maintenance customer for many years, last visit in 2018, lots of personal friends have lost their jobs, a sad day. :(

Wondering if I'm on a different planet
I would hope that, whatever the outcome, we would maintain the Flybe name of the shirts as an acknowledgement of all that we owe to them.

Perhaps even the trust could be the sponsor for the remaining two months?
I think we should continue to wear the name for the rest of the season

Why? To all intents and purposes they don’t exist anymore.

Stuart James' article.
A very well written summary of our relationship - as a Grecian I always felt pride in stepping on one of their planes whether I was wearing the club shirt (when FLYBE put on a special plane to Norwich) or going on my hols.
I'd forgotten that they had named one of their planes in honour of Adam Stansfield, can't see Emirates doing that.
Good Luck to all the hard working people at FLYBE and thanks for your support over 17 years in keeping our club alive.
I, for one, will continue to wear my FLYBE embossed shirt with pride.

Disbelief...
Sad news and my heart goes out to all who have lost their jobs today

Thank you Flybe for your support over the years, and very well put by Stuart James

In a meeting somewhere, some place...
Can’t believe some people are already calling for a new sponsor for the rest of the season

The club should keep the sponsor until the end of the season

Thanks Flybe for your years of sponsorship
