    Just caught highlights on BBC and saw:

    1. He's painted the ****ing Gallowgate roof with the horrible SD ****e
    2. He switched on SD on perimeter LED adverts to SD for Spurs penalty
    3. All around the stands in every conceivable space he has this SD ****e

    Read last week Liverpool were hoping their new stadium naming rights could pay for new ground. What price is anyone putting on this SD ****e?<steam>

    Who cares? His club he'd be stupid not to advertise his business with it. I don't get why people cant just ignore it.

    Because he tells us repeatedly the club is making a loss, but he's turning away paying companies to splash his own logos all over the place for free.

    Because it's made one of the most beautiful stadiums in the world ****ing hideous.

    Sports Direct uses what is essentially slave labour, that is why I don't like seeing the name plastered about the proud SJP ground.

    IMO Ashley's defacing of SJP is worse than his lack of spending in the transfer window.

    I honestly just don't care. If it isnt SD signs it would be something else we all know how over the top advertising in football is getting. I'm just beyond caring more important matters tbh.

    Very well paid for slaves. Although the 0 hour contract thing is a crock of ****e, I was technically an employee for two months, didn't have a single shift until December, by which time I'd found another job and told them to **** themselves.

    It's no different to FFS and his adverts for Shepherd Offshore and I'm sure John Hall did the same.
    The only reason it feels ghastly is because there's more of them but then the modern football era does seem to have more advertising plastered everywhere so we're not the only ones.

    Someone told me on here the other day he pays £47,000 for the advertising, which is pitiful.

    It wouldnt be so bad if the ****ing sign wasn't so tacky. The sign on the Gallowgate end is the worst for me.

    all I care about is what is ON the pitch. He can have a pink neon sign up saying 'Anal Love' for all I care as long as we are allright on the pitch.
    Just saying like.

    Yeah cause it's not like he's paying the bills is he? Gee, some people really make you wonder. If I was him I'd have SD on the kit as well. Who cares honestly? Watch the sport and stop moaning.
