F.c.r.b?

I don;t know if this has been talked about before or not. When you try to edit a kit, you have an option of a black kit with the letters F.C.R.B in the front, and in the lower back or shorts (can't remember) it says Bristol. I was always intrigued by this, I thought maybe we could put sponsors names on the kits, but I was never able to figure it out.

Thing is, lately, when I play a game, there are some adboards with F.C.R.B written on them, and some for Bristol as well. Maybe they were there from the beginning, but I sure haven't noticed them. This leads me more towards the possibility of sponsor editing.

Now evoweb.co.uk in their review of PES2 state that IT IS possible to edit the sponsors. Has anybody confirmed this?, if so, how do you do it?

thanks

F.C.R.B= F.C. Real Bristol. I think this was brought up when WE6 J League was out. There is apparently a website about it: http://www.fcrb.net/
It is a weird site. Looks like a football club. New one. There is a countdown and in the shop, it is sponsor by Nike. There are also some Japanese menu. I don't have time to play around in the site but it is interesting.

really?, that's interesting, I had no idea.

I wonder why evoweb would say in their review of PES2 that you can add sponsors, typo?

Evoweb is not a credible site. Matter of fact, most WE/PES sites are filled with rumors. The problems is because Konami failed so miserably in marketing that I don't know where to start. They make excellent games but are so inept when it comes to market them.
PES outsold FIFA2002 and WC2002 in Europe yet there is not even an official PES site from Konami in English. You would think that Konami Europe would have a site promoting the game. No. Nothing.
What the hell is Konami doing?? They can't even set up an official PES site so fans can come to and post suggestions. Even crappy EA have reps to answer questions.
Konami Europe can't even update the rosters on PES2 and by the looks of some of things were overlook. If the JFA and addidas logo are in the PES2, wouldn't JFA and Addidas have a problem with that. The official sponsor for PES2 is Umbro not addidas. I smell some legal issues coming if it is in fact in the Final version.
Enough about my rants.
FIFA2003 will outsell PES2 this year. Not that I care, because I prefer PES2 gameplay over FIFA anyday. But for the casual fans, FIFA offer a better overall package with the improve gameplay, the license and the numbers of league available. Konami needs to spend money to get license. EA in time will catch up with the gameplay and Konami will be playing second.

The only reason I can think of why Konami does not make contact with their fans via websites etc. is that EA shows the disadvantages.
EA held a chat-session with their fans and that EA representative was so overwhelmed with critics that the men felt being forced to say that FIFA 2003 is better than PES (2).
Some of them believed it but it basically was one of the most idiot statements EA made in public.
By not keeping in touch with their fans Konami avoids this kind of situations.
I have no problems with that as long as they keep making the best football games :)
