how do you know 90% of people on this board go to casinos?...

because this isn't one of the 82% of statistics that're made up on the spot.

Well that's wrong, they've been advertising on TV for much longer than they've had anything to do with NUFC that's for sure.

Merely an advert here and there. Now there the most talked about payday lender.

i think he's talking along the same lines as what I mentioned in my last post

I don't think casinos are any more predatory than pubs. most people enjoy the entertainment, a few addicts get fucked

the point being that gambiling and alcohol have ruined more lives than payday lenders will get anywhere near... desperate people doing things they shouldn't and not being able to control it knowing their actions are more harm than good.

would there be the same outcry if we had bwin as a sponsor? fuck no.

alcohol and gambling are primarily forms of entertainment, they are deeply ingrained in almost all cultures. I have no problem with them.

 

payday lenders can only target the people they do, because their customers have no other option, and are only digging themselves in deeper (I suspect, for the most part). I don't know if I have a problem with that.

 

there's clearly a big difference though.

The irony is that 90% of people on this board go to casino's and are also refusing to wear a shirt with a big fuck off Wonga logo on the front.

:lol:

 

I must be part of the 10% who don't go to casinos but also refuse to buy a shit football shirt with wonga on the front and a huge patch on the back.

I feel like it's telling that alcohol and gambling span all classes, but predatory lenders have a very narrow customer base.

 

but we're really just debating where the line should be drawn

Same here. I don't buy merchandise either, and only know one person that goes to a casino.
