The new kit... 12:30 - Jun 16 with 38883 views | Gloucs_R | Apparently...(Facebook) Its Dennis the menace away. Green and black hoops 3rd. Royal panda is sponsor. Hoops not thin and all the way round. Keeper shirt is an illuminous green. Round collars. They did a photo shoot yesterday where fans modelled the new kit. Someone that was chosen told me yesterday exactly what they're like. They couldn't take pictures as they had to sign a disclaimer. Wait and see... Not sure why you'd have black in 2nd and 3rd kit? | |

So you can't have cigarettes or alcohol advertising on football shirts, because they are addictive and bad for your health. Doesn't gambling qualify for that as well? Shocking how online gambling has been allowed to spread rampantly in this country - as if people weren't in enough debt already. | |

I know what you're saying and I think gambling advertising is out of hand in this country as well but when popping into Ladbrokes is proven to give you lung cancer then come back to me. | | | |

Might get harmed physically but the effects of a gambling addiction can be horrendous on the individual and on their family. Human nature tends to make addicts of some kind or another out of all of us, and usually not to our benefit, or others that surround you. | |

Not to belittle the serious nature of gambling addition in some cases, but the word addition can be slapped on any behavior and only sometimes is it justified. I've heard people talk about being addicted too online shopping or addicted to some TV shows or addicted to ice cream. In most cases that is just having no will power. Bottom line is, people work hard for their money and if they want to spend their entertainment dollars on movies, or gambling on the dogs, or eating at fancy restaurants, then that is none of my business. In a free society, people have wide latitude to make decisions on their own lives, even when those decisions are "objectively" bad ones. So, just like the government has no right to tell someone that they shouldn't spend money on a certain brand of cloths coz its too expensive for their earnings (for example), the govmt should tell people how to spend their entertainment money. | |

do we also ban food as you could become addicted and become obese and die, or ban car sponsorship as you could have an accident in one. Sponsors for football clubs will always reflect the audience which is why it will always be beer, gambling and cars sponsoring football clubs | | | |

I seriously hope they do! Fair enough sport and betting go hand in hand, but until recently you only really saw betting sponsorship with horse racing. Now it's getting everywhere (let alone the umpteen TV ads). | |

So why ban smoking advertising then. Don't get me wrong, I think that all governments stick their noses in too much to peoples lives. Give them the information on such behaviours could do to their health fine, but if you are going to ban smoking health advertising because of health issues, then why not alcohol, or gambling. For many people who are not strong minded enough all three can have devastating effects on their lives and the lives of those who are close to them. | |

Because smoking really does kill or at least have serious damaging effect on your life and those around you who passively breathe in the shite. My father in law is 74 and has COPD — smoked since he was a teenager. To his credit he quit in 2012 when their first Grand son was due and he hasn’t gone back to it since. But it’s too late for him, his lungs are shot to the point he can’t walk more then 10 metres without getting out of breath. If he gets a cold or infection, it’s a major deal. He’ll end up relying on oxygen eventually. I feel for him as he suffers but you can’t help but resent him too when you see all medication he is now reliant on that the NHS foots the bill for due to the habit he had for 50 odd years — despite knowing for most of it that it would do this to him. | | | |

The new kit... on 18:05 - Jun 16 with 14971 views | Hooped_Pullie | Looks like we'll be happy with the designs (if not universally the sponsor). Hoops all the way round, Dennis The Menace back, 3rd kit a bit of a curate's egg but that seems to be the lot of 3rd kits. Sounds from the description a bit like the kit Huddersfield were wearing in the play-off final. A nice selection of supporting leisurewear (including of course, Gilets) and bob's your uncle. | | | |

I had concerns. To be honest I never really understood what Smarkets was all about. It's not so much gambling in general i'm against. I've nothing against people having a flutter on the horses and so on. It's online gambling sites like Royal Panda I don't like. Just aimed at exploiting vulnerable people as far as I can see. Not something I want to support. So if it is Royal Panda as shirt sponsor then I most likely won't be buying. It's not a fcking boycot or anything It's just something I don't really agree with. | |

Without trying to sound mr self righteous i think gambling is going to become an even bigger problem in the next few years. Too easy to chuck your hard earned money away. Of course it wont kill you, but it has potential to mess up family's and marriages . Its a cancer on society. Ive seen mates hooked on all sorts things,gambling one of them. | |
