I expect the Angry birds badge is fixed on the sleeves, no option to remove it in the shop. Aside from this, it is a superb kit.

I'm guessing you're a betting man. They all seem to convince themselves of this little nugget.
Gambling is a mugs game. Businesses would not bother entering the sector if they were not sure the odds were stacked highly in their favour. They are the consistent winners over time. What's more they simply collect money for themselves with zero tangible material benefit to society.

Unless of course you have a 1st in mathematics from Cambridge and have access to enormous amounts of data plus a supercomputer, in which case I have misjudged.

Beer oils the wheels of society. Sure there are a few who go to excess, but you can say the same for sugar and diabetes.

I gamble on occasion and drink on occasion.

There are ~600,000 dependent drinkers in the UK
There are ~400,000 problem gamblers in UK
That's more people with a drink problem, for those keeping track.

There are ~14.5 alcohol related deaths per 100,000 population in UK per annum
There are ~16 suicides per 100,000 population in UK per annum.

So unless all of those suicides are gambling-related and NONE are alcohol related, then it's a bigger problem there too.

Alcohol costs the NHS ~£3.5 billion per annum.

The gambling industry in UK nets ~$14bn in "winnings" from its customers, before taking out expenses, running costs, taxation etc.

The alcohol industry rakes in ~£65 billion per annum.



Neither is exactly squeaky clean, but to pillory the club for accepting a gambling sponsor while being totally accepting of an alcohol company is ridiculous, tbh.

Dont really have a dog in this fight, but I read what Andy King said about it.

He put it typically well. Along the lines of "You can go into a pub with £100, get bladdered, and get home with £60. You can go to the bookies with £10000, and get home with nothing"

That said, not sure many people get killed by Betting Drivers.
 


I like this one - I think its retro Everton and lets face it that's all we've got right now....Rewatched the vid and it look like white shorts and socks - yaay! but what does that mean the club doesn't keep promises, see NSNO and Allardyce.
