Agree, also money talks and there is no use being too principled as the decisions on sponsors is out of our hands.

I`ve not got a problem with this, however, if we see kids walking around in this shirt with a betting company emblazed across the front it won`t be a good look.
Maybe the store should give an option of SCL as it was last season or these guys.

The home kit will, apparently, be officially unveiled on Tuesday, July 28th.

Strong disagree. For sure we can't control what the league decides to do, but the owners have "full" control of who to select (arf) as a sponsor. It's a shite decision for all the obvious and well known reasons.

As with absolutely everything in the world, money talks so stuff any principles. Presume the ‘mug’s game’ companies offer an amount of cash that’s way above what others would offer. 50 years ago it could have been Manakin cigars or 20 Benson & Hedges instead.

Funny that smokes get banned but gambling and alcohol aren’t seen as a problem in football sponsorship circles :roll: Perhaps The FA/FIFA/UEFA should make a stand.

The club have already said that SCL will be on the academy and women’s shirts as part of the ‘Principal Partner’ sponsorship. Mr Vegas is only on the men’s first-team shirt.
