This is the reason Byrne and Buchanan have been able to leave the club. I doubt it, you’d think the contracts are with the club. Then again, Byrne and Buchanan’s were as well… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that is the reality. Money is the deciding factor. Personally, I find the gambling industries practice of sportswashing their filthy money rather despicable.

jono Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 The sad thing is that local businesses don’t have the clout they used to have, they are too busy fighting to survive rather than being community focused. (Not all of course ! ) The crazy world of football finance steers clubs towards the dross who have our money to burn. Betting companies, Payday lenders and Lord knows what. I am old fashioned enough to think your football club should be sponsored in the greater part by the royalty of local industry. We have Beer, Jet engines, Railway trains, Caravans, property developers, motor traders and manufacturers. Some of those are involved of course it looks like football has to be promoted by something other than these now , it offends me just a little bit although I am pragmatic enough to know it’s part of life. I am old, out of date, definitely stuffy and opinionated, but I’d rather have a local scrap merchant sponsoring us than a betting company which regardless of morality is in my view an unworthy endeavour that adds little to the world Miggins, RIMBAUD, archram and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should not be telling people to "bet now", any more than we do to "smoke Benson and Hedges". I don't think they' ll be too interested in Lg2 anyway.

I love the adverts aimed at trying to limit your gambling, when the clown says please gamble responsibly…..then in the next set of adverts is trying to get you to bet on the number of corners, bookings etc etc…..priceless ? jono 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EraniosSocks Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Just a quick post on my hope regarding Albatross Cars. The sponsorship video would be fantastic, 15 cars going down Midland Road with Sibley and Mendez Laing rapping at the back. Plus the jingle would be superb. angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archram Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 I always thought the slogan ‘ when it stops being fun, stop’ would have led to an empty stadium the season before last! I do hate the betting adverts, though I understand companies want to advertise themselves but it seems to be endless from betting companies. It must encourage more betting or they wouldn’t spend so much doing it. I don’t gamble for a lot of reasons, one being because I’m a poor loser!
