Fowl play! Look away
now, Rovers fans, here are your heroes in an advert for
Venky's
It may look finger lickin' good to some,
but to any Blackburn
Rovers fan this must be serious fowl
play!
Following Venky's take-over of the Ewood Park
club in last November the India-based firm have made little
impression on the marketing of the club, they certainly haven't
over-egged it. Until now.
The poultry firm have the company logo splashed
across the new shirt and now they have enlisted the players to star
in an advert for their products.
The players are seen huddled together in the
Rovers dressing room, before they move back to reveal several
plates of chicken. You couldn't make it up.
There follow some rather ham-fisted acting skills
from captain Ryan Nelsen, Jason Roberts, Morten Gamst Pedersen and
co.
But you know what they say, you can't make an
omelette without breaking some eggs. Take a look for
yourself.
