Will their logo be on kid's Jerseys? I thought it poor last time that not even Chang Soda was on their tops.

Not that bothered over the morality side of things regarding the sponsor, Sky has made sure they know all about gambling anyway.

Horrible looking logo though and hopefully it just goes on the sleeve.

I'm going to say no mainly because they look like a dire operation.

The state of their website and logo tell you all you need to know.

Hull were getting £9m over 3 years from them, I don't believe they have they ability to offer us a lot more than that - really what we should be getting given our stature.

To be fair, their biggest market has incredibly limited internet speeds / quality, so a detailed heavy loading website wouldn't make sense
 
I think, perhaps, their core values are what appeal to Everton. OK, they may be a gambling firm but they also invest (according to their website) in local community initiatives and grass root sports. A bit similar to EITC. From a moralistic perspective they may not be the preferred choice and we do not yet know the extent of their deal but ultimately if they give back as much as they say they do then who are we to argue.

I accept the are not the biggest name commercially (certainly in the UK) but they are in many of the growing markets around the world. And before we all get on our high horses about the kind of message this sends out to our kids let's not forget that the likes of Coca Cola/Pepsi/McDonalds...et al are major contribitors to childhood obesity and I'll health. Devil you do, Devil you don't.

They are also co-owned by Bulgarian "ex"-gangsters, so I dunno about core values.
 
Well we've just had an alcohol company sponsor us for a million years so is this really that different?

I'm not too bothered really, I'm just glad it's not a payday loan company.
