No, I think it was originally known as Goldstar and then Lucky Goldstar.

Later Lucky Gold and then LG.

I always though LG stood for Lifes good.

Echo that.
 
i'm going to keep on pretending it means Lifes good, it works better than lucky goldstar.

I think that is just their marketing strap line

sad I know but just got this from Wiki. I think I have had GoldStar stuff before in the distant past.

The LG Group is South Korea's third largest conglomerate that produces electronics, chemicals, and telecommunications products and operates subsidiaries like LG Electronics, LG Telecom, Zenith Electronics and LG Chem in over 80 countries. LG Group sponsors the LG Cup Baduk Tournament.

LG Group founder Koo In Hwoi established Lak Hui Chemical Industrial Corp. in 1947.[3] In 1952, Lak Hui (pronounced "Lucky", currently LG Chem) became the first Korean company to enter the plastics industry. As the company expanded its plastics business, it established GoldStar Co., Ltd., (currently LG Electronics Inc.) in 1958.

In 1959, Goldstar produced South Korea's first radio. Many consumer electronics were sold under the brand name GoldStar, while some other household products (not available outside South Korea) were sold under the brand name of Lucky. The Lucky brand was famous for its hygiene products line such as soaps and Hi-Ti laundry detergents, but most associated with its Lucky and Perioe toothpaste.

In 1995, so as to better compete in the western market the company was renamed "LG", the abbreviation of "Lucky GoldStar". More recently, the company associates its tagline "Life's Good", with the letters LG. In January 2009 LG was able to buy the domain name LG.com - It is now among the list of large corporations to own a two letter domain name.[4]. The amount of the transaction remains confidential.
 
Coke and Google look cool, but I doubt either of those companies need any more publicity

Whereas Carlsberg need all the help they can get, because in their 200 years of brewing, they still haven't discovered how to make their product not taste of stale, fizzy piss.
 
I want someone who will pay through the teeth (obviously) and also (very petty) has a good logo that works on red, white and black (or any other colour).

Coke looks by far the best. And sure they do need all the publicity they can get. There is this company called 'Pepsi' they are competing with and I'm sure they have to spend millions and millions every year on advertising. Pepsi have a big hold on football ads(or is it just my imagination?) so it seems logical Coke would like to spend some money making them more associated with the biggest sport in the world.
 
Thanks for the patronising tone, you super, super poster, you.

What's clear is Coca cola have a history of sponsoring competitions - World Cups, the League cup and now the lower leagues - but have never in my knowledge been linked to sponsoring a Premiership club.

Haha sorry if that sounded patronising, I'm not British so my english doesn't always come across as intended. Thanks for the aggravated response though, you grumpy, grumpy poster, you. 😉

And while you are probably right about Coke preferring to sponsor competitions rather that teams I recall them being linked to sponsoring us in the past. How credible that link was is another matter. But anyway would like to see them as our sponsor, no idea how possible that is.
 
I'd love to have Coca-Cola on our chest if Carlsberg can't meet our demands.

I think they will though.

I don't think so. I don't hate them anyways. Maybe there's a bit of a grudge between Norwegians and Swedes but I'm not sure.

I hate IKEA though.

My missus loves it and she loves to drag me along too.
