    Iconic - a vastly over-used word.
    All I know is I never buy anything from any company that has ever featured on Manchester United's shirt.
    (I have even declined a Chevrolet car rental in the States for this reason.)

    I always link Millwall with Captain Morgan. Which is a shame because I used to like the stuff, but won't touch it now.
    For Palace I think TDK, which is ok because cassette's are a thing of the past.
    I don't really have a Charlton sponsor that comes to mind easier than the rest (maybe The Woolwich at a push), perhaps because the Charlton curse seems to have put so many businesses under.

    Real Madrid - Teka

    A non sponsor with Barcelona, in that they famously never had a sponsor until recently, and even then it was initially UNICEF.

    SEGA/Dreamcast - Arsenal...
    Wasn't there some story about Arsenal having to switch from Sega to Dreamcast because in some language or another Sega means shit. According to the story, no one realised this until Arsenal got drawn against a team who spoke the language concerned.
