AGF has chosen to terminate WindowMaster International A/S as sponsor due to comments about pyrotechnics.
AGF has terminated the sponsorship agreement with WindowMaster International A/S because one of the company's employees has claimed, among other things, that the company's sponsorship was to cover the club's fines for pyrotechnics.
The question of whether Roman candles and other pyrotechnics belong in football has long been a topic of debate among Danish football fans. AGF is currently in no doubt about where they stand in this discussion:
AGF has dropped sponsor Windowmaster with immediate effect, with AGF chairman Lars Fournais himself chairman of the board, after the owner's son, Oscar Boyter, threatened to withdraw support if the club toughened its fight against pyro. AGF chairman Lars Fournais also sits on the company's board.
