At the moment we dont have them so that isnt the case at the moment. But if you know bookies they dont allow children in so usualy that doesnt occur. Well thats upto the parents isnt it and not the sponsors.

I'd pay a premium to have a sponsor free shirt. The idea that kids are being short changed because they don't get to be walking advertising board is preposterous, IMHO.
On the charity angle, the home shirt has the Noble Group on the right side of the chest, but the away has 'Cash for Kids'. The latter is either a charity or an extremely unscrupulous new approach to pawnbroking.
I've checked - it is a charity that is linked to local radio stations around the UK.

So the rules say you can't advertise gambling on kids shirts but its ok for a kid to read the gambling advert on his dad's shirt, on other supporters shirts and on the hoardings round the pitch?
The world's gone mad.
First there was wisdom Then there was knowledge Now there is only information
Disapointing, was thinking of going into kidnapping to earn a bit of extra cash in the run up to Christmas.
I'll have to come up with something else.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

What about kids who wear crucifixes? I've not heard any reports of them nailing their hands and feet to crosses
Thats cos it's nigh on impossible to get the last nail in.

Lol, seriously though it's an interesting point - IMO gambling (or alcohol for that matter) advertising is unlikely to have any influence on a 5 or 6 year old in terms of them gambling or drinking in later life.

As these companies spend millions a year on advertising I would assume it influences people to use there services and kids will not be immune to those influences.
