There's a whistle to whistle ban on betting ads on TV, this sleeve sponsor is no different to our lovely new Thatchers ad hoardings.

Don’t see what the issue is.
They are paying us to advertise. We get money and the only inconvenience to us is some lettering on a shirt sleeve.

Literally every live TV broadcast of football has a betting advert during the ad breaks. Most probably have some betting company signage around the ground and do grounds still have betting windows inside them?

It’s not like online betting (or betting) in general is some dark, hardcore, underground scene and we are the first people to give it the light of day. Won’t somebody think of the children.

There is nothing worse than a moral compass that doesn't remember where North is.  Of all the things to get frothy about.

Honestly couldn’t care less. Either there should be a whole sport ban on betting ads or nothing. This won’t make any difference apart from a bit of extra revenue to the club

Don't our shirts already bear the name of another betting company on the sleeve?  With the exception of this company sponsoring the club direct rather than through the EFL ala skybet, what is the difference? All a bit Meh to me.

I really don’t see the issue here regarding the shirt deal. It’s a legally registered company offering us the opportunity to make some money. It nothing to get your frilly little knickers in a twist over.

Football is tainted by betting everywhere you look. As already said there's adverts on tv and radio every break.

I think a fair percentage of those fans up in arms will be calling on the club to sign sum playaz in this window.

are they doing odd splits across a single order?

got mine, 2x sons. they arrived.

also ordered a mates in my network as he's not going and sits next to my son. easier than doing +1 random seat. that's not arrived.

Yeah mine was done in two separate orders. 4x on one order and 1x on another, the single has turned up but not the 4 😂 this is why I always prefer to pick up from the club usually 😂

Hmm, there goes the creative engine of our Robin Unreliant.  Sad
