What an absolute bullshit artist. Absolutely washing his hands of a serious issue in the sport and pretending it isn’t a problem.

Increase in gambling, or gambling addiction? That’s a distinction that one needs to make in this case. I can see how they might have a point for the latter, but the former seems a bit odd.

“We’ve seen no evidence because we refuse to look into it, it would make us look like cunts”

Well then wouldn’t we see the sponsorships ceasing because obviously they have no effect?

People who gamble were already gambling. The advertising just directs their gambling to a specific place.

I never gamble, so seeing a gambling add does not make me want to gamble.

Of course he’d say that. It’s all about the money coming in.

“I’ve seen no evidence of a link, coincidentally I haven’t asked or looked for evidence of a link…”

Must have had his eyes closed and his fingers in his ears

“Advertisement doesn’t work” is a bold claim to make

Man is a genius. He just saved countles companies billions, they now know that adds and propaganda in fact don’t work.

Sky Bet in shambles they’ve sponsored the entirety of the EFL for nothing

So you’re saying the gambling companies are wasting their money?

Then why would they advertise with you lol. “They’re happy to throw money away to bankroll teams for no benefit to themselves”. Moronic take

This is like the police turning blind eyes to a mafia owned business.

Wow, so advertising does not work? bold claim Cotton.

Its just pure gaslighting at this point.
