Oo'er. It's great that the players have boots again and haven't had to fork out for them. That's all that matters at the end of the day. But, the actions of betting companies across sport - making themselves appear as 'friends' of clubs, supporters and fans - leaves a bitter taste. These behemoth companies have such a destructive influence and, yes, it amazes me - not how fans and players receive their gifts (who wouldn't) - but the brass neck of the companies to put themselves out there in this manner. And, the large measures of Jim Beam's Devil Cut may have helped carve a post without much reasoning to it
So no, not a lefty chant of corporate greed (I'd call it an idealogical crusade
). What's most important is that the players have their gear again. Apologies if my ill-timed post offended. My one-man-war can wait.
