Football Insider has been told by Kieran Maguire that it would be 'harsh' for Rangers to suffer as a result of 32Red's £7million fine.

F*ck, saw the thread title and thought we’d been hit with a £7m fine. If/when the Government intervene this will impact many, many clubs.

 

[Gheorghe_Hagi]

Such a misleading clickbaity headline.

"The government’s gambling commission revealed on Thursday (23 March) that online operator 32Red Limited will pay a £7.1million penalty for social responsibility and anti-money laundering failures."

Clickbait

This has literally nothing to do with Rangers though.

 

[JD1872]

So in other words we face the same issue as every other club that has a betting company as a shirt sponsor but they have used our name to draw attention to the article

 

[Mreblue]

Clickbait pish

 

[insanicdrunk]

Not sure why we are named, they aren’t passing the fine on to us to pay.

 

[Now and forever]

When will folk stop being conned with clickbait garbage like Football Insider.

As soon as you click onto their article their job is done and the content is irrelevant to them.

Football "Insider".

William Hill have been fined a lot more by the way.

Rangers' lawyers might find a way...

All teams in UK sponsored by gambling companies will suffer as front of shirt sponsorship is going to end in next couple of seasons.

 

[GovanFront4]

Listen to the Price of Football podcast and it explains this. No real negative effect on us at all.

 

[DeeCeeTee]

Clickbait title, but I would rather see a blanket ban on gambling advertising. Not just at Rangers, but across the board.

 

[pelem]

Hopefully we move away from the Kindred group and their shitty brands as soon as possible anyway.

The men in charge of our club would jeest be stupid enough to negotiate another deal wi them.

 

[Barrymoped]

It’s something about nothing as far as I can see. Not for 32Red obviously, but for us.

 

[Brian Laudrup]

Anything to link Rangers to a story

what 32 Red etc do is zero to do with Rangers

 

[clontarf]

poor journalism.

 

[Teddy Casablanca]

RIGHT, so how do we get Rangers into this story?

 

[The_danish_god]

Not sure why we are named, they aren’t passing the fine on to us to pay.

It sells more papers and gets more clicks when our name is on the headline.

 

[devilman]

That's quite spectacular bringing Rangers into this - absolutely nothing to do with us and I doubt it'll affect us in the slightest.

 

[RenfrewBear1972]

How many clubs sponsored by bookies and they pick Rangers as the “scapegoat”. Imagine waking up in the morning as a journo in this mentally challenged natszi cesspit and believe your contributing to society with utter shite like this.

 

[GersGuy]

When is the deal with them up ?

 

[Moe Szyslak]

I understand the club has to accept the biggest sponsorship deals in place to them, but we will need to take a stance morally for 3 or 4 year deals with brands the club are happy to be linked with. It does seem odd as Scottish football is happy to have “Glens vodka “ sponsorship , which is arguably just as damaging to lives as gambling .

 

[Captain_Buns]

Click bait pish from that article. I’m sure we could always get another kit sponsor.

I am surprised that Clickbait headlines
on this thread @mdingwall
How much more accurate one would have been a long these lines: ‘Shirt gambling sponsorship ban on the cards.’
