exAtyeoMax Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 19 hours ago, Bristol Rob said: For those questioning the morals behind the use of a gambling company as shirt sponsorship are forgetting (or might be too young to remember) that back in the 80s, you couldn't move for tobacco sponsorship at Ashton Gate. Until it's banned and until a more ethical sponsor paying the same money is ready to step in to fill the void, it is what it is. I was trying to think of an ethical big business or company. Hard to think of any, unless it’s a nonprofit organisation, but then I’d rather their money went to their cause. The club would be paying them.

I personally don’t think the geezers accent is an authentic Bristolian accent mind - sounds like an actor putting it on which is rather cringe.

m42 Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 Goodbye Dunder. Hello Mansion. Same problem, though: they are both online betting companies. Betting. The problem that hits so many families. It means that I've saved over £200 because I won't advertise gambling. I just love my BTC and DAS and RSG shirts, though!

I'm intrigued how much money you spent at BTC, DAS and RSG? Proabably the same amount that I have spent at Dunder Interesting that you don't reference Thatchers being on shirts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say a dozen or so - probably the same as the Sainsbury "protest." But Mansion have probably had that advert seen by thousands that wouldn't have known about it - job done.

'Pack' It In Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 Hi, I heard from some Gashead mates, that they are getting uppity about a Mansion Bet advertisement on the bus stop by the Wellington. This sign has the quote 'There's Only One Team In Bristol' Any reason why our sponsors are tribalising the game or do you think Bristol City has an influence on the advertising, which I indeed doubt, Also, would we be offended if a Bristol Rovers sponsors advert saying the same thing within 200 yards of the ground?

It's the usual advertising strategy of make the biggest bang for your buck. By putting it there it had gasheads photographing it and putting it on their forum and the BEP running a story on it. Job done. It's no different to: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
