SportPesa

[Steve Wigan]

"Everton’s chief executive, Denise Barrett-Baxendale, wrote in the club’s annual report: “We value our developing relationship with SportPesa, who have demonstrated a strong alignment with our values.” A spokesperson for Everton, who describe themselves as “the people’s club”, said Barrett-Baxendale was referring to the sponsor’s support for the club’s extensive community work, which she herself pioneered in the deprived areas around Goodison Park."

Really disappointed in her by that remark.

Even if this wasn't going on, a gambling company is evil.

Gambling on the results of football matches. Just the same in many ways. 'Treble chance' 'Three Draws' Penny Points' 'Four Aways'.

Brought back a few memories that mate.

She gave me my own slip to put the crosses in.

And Spot the ball..

That's got to be a Paddy Power marketing stunt surely? That actually looks like a sash Miss Universe would wear.

It's a real kit.
Played in it last night.
FA looking into it though as limit on sponsorship logo size etc..

Utter madness.

Yeah i remember being sat with my grandad and we would go through the slip looking at the games and then he would let me draw all the little 'x' on the spot the ball coupon, then eventually they came up with those square stickers with the crosses on them.

Different concept and different execution.

Comparing a raffle ticket to odds based gambling.

What are Hafina doing these days

Gambling company is seedy, but I’d rather that than be used by a petrodollars regime as a way of buying a shiny public image (and hiding their brutality).

Yes I’m aware that princes of tiny petrol states fund their sides much more lavishly than Kenyan bookmakers do.

To be honest I didn't know what they did when they sponsored us.
Only found out years later it was something to do with tinned meat.
