End of Gambling firms as shirt sponsors (26/27)

[davek]

Gambling sponsorship is wrong.

Allowing clubs to have owners who behead people is right.


This is the organisation that's referred Everton to a commission.

 

[terryefc]

Ban gambling firm shirt advertising - but allow corrupt governments with appalling human rights issues to basically buy the PL title. Hypocrites. Sick to death of these phonies.

 

[davek]

Ban gambling but allow clubs to be bought by parasitical financial capitalists by leveraging them and thereby hand them debts to the tune of £1B.

The PL are gangsters in bed with human rights abusers and parasites.

Are they going to stop Sky advertising gambling companies during their TV coverage of the PL.……didn’t think so.

Exactly.

Absolute 'kin hypocrites.

This is the scum that found Everton wanting and referred them to a commission. They stand in judgement of us.

You couldn't make it up.

Enablers for beheading regimes, hedge funds (AKA big time gambling for the mega rich, and Russian oligarchs...until they shat themselves when the sanctions began.

FFS they show Everton and interview Dyche about it on the national news, this is like the other week when they were going on about teams flying short distance: everyone does it but they feature Everton.

I take it Skybet and all the rest will be banned also ?

Sky sports app is full of skybet odds and advertising but that is fine it seems. I couldn’t name three clubs with gambling sponsors as I pay no attention to them. I think the advertising on football shirts is nothing in comparison to the actual gambling advertising in other parts of the game.

Would they be doing it if City, Utd, Spurs, Mordor and Chelsea were sponsored by gambling companies.

Im no lover of gambling, but I’m more offended when I see Sponsorship on shirts from countries with more then questionable human right records, respect for diversity etc.

This just funnels, 8 clubs who wouldn’t be commercial giants into a limited market space in a limited time to plug a good 10-20 mill in their finances - good job their aren’t rules around that.

everyone tweet @chang save us

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Astonishing how political football has become in England over the past 3 years.

Taking the knee

Attacking Russian oligarchs

Pushing through saudi takeover to appease the Tory Government

Add in this its a joke.

It's a racket to stop a cartel from frigging off to a Euro scab league. That's all.

As said: EFC should be taking no morality lessons in 'wrong-doing' off gangsters like the PL....though there are plenty of Everonians who will willingly take any penalty that corrupt organisation hands us. They should hang their heads in shame.

I don’t think the Premier League can dictate TV advertising rules although they could have gone further by banning gambling advertising at the grounds and shirt sleeves.

Basically they’ve done the bare minimum to try and stave off the threat of the government enforcing a blanket ban when their white paper is released

A gambling white paper by Easter would be a turn-up for the books | Travel & leisure | The Guardian

A shakeup may cover maximum stakes and a statutory levy on gaming firms, but football sponsorship deals remain a thorny issue

Exactly.

Everton are the whipping boys again.

 

[matty1878]

It's a token gesture isn't it?

And as you say - a move which inevitably aids more clubs than others.

not us? lol

 

[matty1878]

At least we won't have to endorse it on the front of our shirts - I hate the fact that we had to crawl into bed with a scummy gambling company

sleep in separate beds
