UREDS_91 Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 Currently playing in the kit in a friendly. However it’s obviously an elaborate and clever stunt from Paddy Power to get them all over social media outlets. They’ll probably announce the actual kit tomorrow after a slap on the wrist from the FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Geoff Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49026053 Now the FA are helping PP's stunt by taking it seriously. Shame it isn't April 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobBobSuperBob Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 ‘ 48 hours after the first release of a home shirt that has been much-discussed amongst Town fans and the wider football community – and which was also worn in the pre-season win at Rochdale on Wednesday night – a blue and white striped shirt featuring no sponsor logo has now been revealed. The shirt is part of Paddy Power’s new ‘Save Our Shirt’ campaign; an initiative that is backing a move towards unbranded football kits, effectively returning the shirt back to the fans.’ _____________________________________ So basically PP have paid for sponsorship but not put their logo on the shirts leaving them ‘unspoilt’ Shirts look so much better without poxy sponsors plastered across it Nice One PP very clever , as the publicity and approval they will gain will outweigh whatever they’d have had with their logo splattered across the shirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobBobSuperBob Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Can’t believe that anyone , including the FA were gullible enough to even consider the original shirts were the actual new shirt , as they could clearly have never been used in competition due to the various rules about sponsors logos Hate the way youngsters are being enticed to bet but some of PPs advertising , you have to say is genius, particularly this A week of outrage and publicity and now revealing the shirts will be unbranded , loads more publicity , a new hashtag save the shirt ongoing , and lots of approval from football supporters all over Id suggest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilC Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Great marketing campaign, not just for Paddy Power but football in general. Fair play to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UREDS_91 Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 PP have probably had more coverage and exposure this week than what they would have done in a whole season of shirt sponsoring Huddersfield. Very clever indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
!james Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Fair play for the actual shirt which looks nicer without a sponsor but cynical view its still a gambling company complaining about large shirt sponsors (majority of which are rival gambling companies) launching a fake shirt and online 'banter' gaining more attention and publicity then you would by just sponsoring them and now trying to come across as the good guys whilst still promoting online gambling to the masses which is huge problem now in this country especially to young kids on social media... bit toxic for me.

elhombrecito Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Honestly can't believe anyone fell for this... But excellent publicity for Paddy Power. As I said, whoever thought this up will be getting a pay rise! Here's the actual shirt for those that are interested: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledAjax Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Great banter lads and thanks so much for piously "returning the shirt to the fans". Nah. They're still a betting company. This is still the same company that helped Tony10 (and no doubt others) to keep gambling even when they were clearly in way too deep. They're still *****. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/sport/blog/2018/jun/04/online-betting-sport-tony-oreilly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been in a VIP box at Cheltenham with them and they really do have a "head of mischief" employee. The original Rhodri Giggs advert was superb and got publicity everywhere before the watered down one appeared on terrestrial tv. Some of their "fan denials" are funny and crazy as well.
