Medlock, some may have well know names like Emirates, Mitsubishi, Typhoo on heir shirts, but I think you find that the sponsorship in terms of money is nothing like that of Football or Union clubs or indeed even 188Bet

Leigh for example have O2 on their shirts, but it is only a branch and not the company at national level.

Anyway, what could be worse than having a controversial company like WONGA on the shirts like Premiership Newcastle United?

We've got one as bad as Wonga. Preditory gambling organisation. Corbyn won't allow it when he sweeps to power.

Sorry, Mike, but many clubs now have betting companies as main sponsors.

And are they any worse than a preditory money lending company getting people into debt?

And why the sarcasm about Crorbyn as he could be swept to power with the increasing number of newcomers with a poor standard of living now flooding into the country. How many of them, for example paid the £2 to participate in the vote which elected him as leader?

Corbyn reminds me of Michael Foot, who always looked scruffy even when wearing a suit & tie! The 'donkey jacket' at the Cenotaph Remembrance Service ruined any chance of Labour coming to power at that time!

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

these guys are quite big, they were the first to sponsor two premiership teams at the same time, thats not to be sniffed at. I think the Coral merger with Ladbrokes may be the reason why they didn't continue .... that and the fact we won jack last season !
we don't stop playing because we grow old ....... we grow old because we stop playing
