Piethief100 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I'm watching the Merseyside derby at the moment (what was Atkinson thinking?), when an advert came on during the half time ad break. I could have sworn it was an FM2012 spot, told all my mates, and then... completely taken in. Still if SI want a cheap advert, just change the tagline at the end.

markyosullivan Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I was thinking it was an advertisement for FM12 until the bit at the end. Making me wonder what the FM12 ad will be like. :confused: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piethief100 Posted October 1, 2011 Author Share Posted October 1, 2011 How many people has this damn thing taken in? Fantastic for SI though - I actually preordered my copy of FM12 today having been reminded by this! It's a brilliant new advertising strategy, let others do it for you.

Suzie MUFC Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Epic advert, I thought it might've been for FM12 as well. The one thing it doesn't make me want to do is bet, it just makes me want to play FM. So in a funny way, it's also a fail. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SI Staff Miles Jacobson Posted October 4, 2011 SI Staff Share Posted October 4, 2011 I chuckled when the Sky Bet ad came on. Pays a little bit of homage to some of ours over the years, but then ours pay homage to other people's too. The advert this year will be very different to what we've done before. It's a TV ad, rather than a trailer. It's 20 seconds short, rather than 2 minutes long. Although there will also be a 30 second version which can only be shown on the TV, rather than online, for reasons that will become clear in the few TV spots where the 30 second one can be used. It's also not finished yet, which is why it hasn't been shown. Most likely next week sometime. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
