    Asian on line gambling firm. Currently lots of them involved in match fixing so I hope they can fix it for us to have a good season. Why does this type of sponsorship not surprise me.

    Terrible thing, gambling. Just ask Michael Chopra.

    Wouldn't catch us linking up with a gambling sponsor.

    Oh, hang on....

    Tawdry as usual, wouldn't mind so much if l thought that any extra revenue generated, was going to be spent on building the team.
    We go from bad to worse and l for one am not surprised anymore by the antics of our so called Directors.
    There's a constant bad smell hanging over SJP these days, as l said it's just really distasteful.

    Most teams have partnerships with betting firms, We've got Bet Butler and was with Tombola before that and Boylesports before that. If anything it's about time.

    You snooze you lose.
    To stand still is to go backwards and all that.

    You know what I mean?

    Good for who ACS, not much of it being thrown the way of the new signings we desperately need.
