Ah our corporate overlord shows its blinking arsheole again
Checks out. Assholes
gambling addition is nothing compared to gambling multiplication. Don’t even get me started on gambling exponentiation.
Gambling companies offer nothing to society
This is shameful of both bet365 and the TV company in question for bending to them.
Moments like this really show betting companies really don’t give 2 shits about the responsible gambling campaigns and only about £
Betting has ruined this sport. Change my mind.
Lightweight. I only gamble on multiplication.
Absolute fucking scum, I really hate the grip gambling has on football, and sports in general.
Should check to see if he sue them, fucking scummy behaviour if true.
should be noted that most advertisers routinely do this in anything they’re involved in
People often say to me that it’s great players can now open up about their struggles.
Can they really? I certainly wouldn’t encourage it
I’d honestly say the exact same about mental health. When a player opens up everybody will praise them for their bravery and honesty in the moment.
But the minute a discussion about something like being captain/crucial penalties comes up you can guarantee they’ll be a lot of people questioning wether they’re mentally strong enough.
People laughed about Paul Mcgrath saying he’s won MOTM whilst drunk and he’s talking about it deadly serious about what a serious issue he had.
He was suicidal and played games with bandages on his wrists from slitting them.
That is mental health in general. A company will often hire a person with mental health problems to be seen as inclusive but as soon as they realise that PTSD and BPD are not some random letters but genuine diagnoseses that greatly affect their new emplyee they want nothing to with you :/
I feel comparing the mentality to take a penalty vs mental health is weird
You can also say the same about any support for equality. Look at Hendo, shit that he went to Saudi which somewhat goes against his support, but at least he came out and talked about stuff in the first place, it doesn’t remove the fact that he supports lgbtq+ equality, isn’t homophobic, and is inclusive. There’s countless high profile players who have never made a statement either way on lgbtq+ equality etc and could just be homophobic, they don’t get jumped on for going to Saudi though. I’d rather have people speaking in the first place and for that reason I’ll always defend Hendo (somewhat, the way he’s dealt with it has been a bit shit).
But to get to the point no young players going to look at this and think, yeah it’s really worth speaking up for what I believe in, incase it goes south. And that’s all because of how everyone has treated Jordan.
Gambling sites are pos I asked yesterday on fan duel if there was a way I could turn off the casino feature because i mainly use the Sportsbook they closed my account fucking scum
I’m pretty sure they can’t turn off the casino, so they probably did it to protect you.
When you lie with the dogs don’t be surprised when you get fleas.
Bet365 are vile fucking parasites. Provide fucking nothing to the world whilst profiting of people’s abject misery. The amount of money the company makes is obscene.
I’m not necessarily all in for ‘treat gambling addiction like a drug addiction’, but the relentless betting advertising that’s just absolutely everywhere exacerbates problems people may already have. It’s disgusting.
I’m not necessarily all in for ‘treat gambling addiction like a drug addiction’
Agreed. Drug addiction can at least be cured.
That is genuinely disgusting.
The way he says he ‘finally’ landed a tv job too, sounds pretty gutting.
More importantly, he spoke about gambling subtraction.
