I doubt it, but it's not even as if it's being well hidden. The game is an absolute mess but as long as the people at the top are getting their slice, nobody cares enough to do anything about it. And on top of that, the clubs are 'community assets', so they're seen as something that needs to be saved rather than punished. It's the perfect business for dodgy bast*rds to make some dodgy cash. |  | |  |

It feels as if, as long as you've got the cash, due diligence merely involves making sure the cheque doesn't bounce. |  |

That's very much his stock in trade these days; bait and switch type stuff to expose and humiliate big corporate entities. If anyone can get Leeds to run out on the pitch with "I Love Willies" in Mandarin on the front of their shirts, he can. |  |

What would get us to do the same? Colman's as official mustard partner? Aviva as official insurance partner? Lotus as official car partner? |  | |  |
| Fulham’s new sponsor doesn’t sound dodgy at all on 22:20 - Sep 5 with 2441 views | MVBlue | This is terrible. When you sit down and think, an article today also pointed out 55% of Premiership clubs have betting main shirt sponsors. We are listed as musician. Corrupt owners have been entering the club ownership model, leading to light touch regulation that the owners business must be at least legit in some form or state linked and of serious income. Grifters are all over the game but hide behind the elite sport model that the Prem teams have become, and players tend to be closely measured before significant money is outlayed. But its all there, the dirty world behind the biggest sport league there is and this expose is really telling. |  |

There is a bit in season 2 of Mission to Burnley where there is a fans forum, and people complain to the chairman and COO about having a betting front of shirt sponsor very vocally - and how strongly they feel about it and would rather they took a lesser deal. The chairman said the option was either the deal, or they sell one of their players (he mentioned him by name but I can't remember who) and everyone in the meeting said they'd rather keep the player. Which is sadly the reality. |  | |  |
