Do you think banning betting companies from sponsoring football teams is the right call? ⚽ ⚽ ⚽ West Ham United FC are set to part company with Betway Group following the recent UK Government review on gambling laws. The new law is expected to effect another 8 Premier League sides and 17 of the 24 sides in the Championship. While I completely understand that allowing betting companies to sponsor teams normalizes and actually promotes gambling, I do find it strange to stop what is an integral part of the game being front and center during football matches. What's next? No more Ray Winstone at half time?! #sportsbetting #football #igaming
Philip A. Caspari curious to hear your POV
I understand the impact it will have on sponsorship but I do agree it should be banned!

1yThe government will soon probably change its mind when they can’t get the same return from the tax of the sponsorship.
