The club should offer an adults shirt without sponsor for £150+
Im sure if they did people would moan.
Maybe they could get Susan Boyle to do the half time entertainment once we are able to sing again
I think the moaning is at every club, even those with all the wealth and all the glory, still have some that are not happy. This sponsorship deal sounds like it helps the club run and could help MR bring in a few players, if that is the case and we start winning all this will be a forgotten story.
Maybe Warick Uni could have sponsored us?Yes, Swansea cite fan response as a reason for them moving away from betting firms for the first time in years.
Swansea City: Club move away from betting sponsors
Championship club Swansea City agree a shirt sponsorship deal with Swansea University as part of an effort to move away from betting companies.www.bbc.co.uk
We're not in a position to be choosy, this is the biggest sponsorship deal we've had in years & until betting advertising is banned we need to take the money just to be competitive.
So, just came out of work where I have zero signal.... what have I missed!!
.....actually just had a flick through twitter..... blimey, bet Boyle sports had wished they hadn't shelled out a few grand to us to have their name on the shirt..... in the SKY BET CHAMPIONSHIP!!
Not one moan over the past few years regarding them being a sponsor for the league.
I do understand that some people are/have been negatively affected by gambling. But are you telling me that they don't watch football or haven't realised that we are/have been part of the Sky Bet league for years.
Just waiting for the Telegraph to blame SISU now....
Be interested to know how much the university are paying compared to the amount they've received from betting companies in the last few years before applauding them. The cynic in me thinks they've changed sponsor and then decided to make out it was down to fan response for some cheap PR.Yes, Swansea cite fan response as a reason for them moving away from betting firms for the first time in years.

And councillor Jim O'Boyle could do things to help the club off the field...
Oh...
I don't know about anyone else but that was painful to watch.
Don't care that it's a betting company, a couple of people online with their fake outrage fail to realise the whole EFL pyramid is sponsored by a betting company... Who cares
BTW this is the championship logo on the arms, clearly states SKYBET at the top, nobody cares do they? View attachment 16484

I feel for you I really do and I can understand your reluctance to buy a shirt with that on it. But where do you draw the line? Millions if not billions of people around the world gamble responsibly and don't have a Gambling addiction and it can be a fun thing to do.
Would I prefer we didn't have a gambling sponsor, yeh. But is it worth being at a competitive disadvantage? I don't think so.
I know you have clearly had an awful time with it but you're making out that it's a massive evil and anyone who gets tempted to put a bet on is doomed when that's simply not the case.
People struggle with obesity, do we ban fast food and chocolate? I have a friend who has huge financial problems and can't stop spending tens of thousands on credit cards. Do we stop credit card company advertising?
Think a bit OTT
what's it like living in a bygone age?I want the new kit but no sponsors on it .
if sponsors on it I will not buy one .
I never bought a Talbot or Peugeot Car. Never played Granada Bingo. Occasionally see an ice cream on TV and think that looks nice. Couldn't tell you where a Boyle Sports betting shop was - if they exist. Don't see the fuss.

Couldn't tell you where a Boyle Sports betting shop was - if they exist. Don't see the fuss. Do Arsenal fans fly Emirates more, as a result of sponsorship - I'd doubt it
They're not on replica shirts unless you choose to add them though
Er but they didn’t. I think you need to revisit that post.Maybe Warick Uni could have sponsored us?
