kingjoey Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Not journalism, but couldn’t think where else to post this. Walking past my local Ladbrokes today, who are the sponsors of our Premiership, and they have their usual advert showing a match with odds for a particular score in that match. We have a full programme of Scottish Premiership matches on tonight, so which match did they have in the window. Aston Villa v Sheffield United, which isn’t played until Friday. Just another example of how Scottish football is viewed from a corporate point of view. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless it’s changed, the blame lies with the staff in your local shop rather than the company itself...which may be more damning. Local folk aren’t even arsed about our league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf my mate works in a Ladbrokes and the posters ( if that’s what Joey is taliking about ) are sent from HQ and there is no way to change this . He says he did at one time have nearly every team in the UK on a piece of card , so could alter the display but they have become lost or destroyed over the years 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The poster itself was sent from HQ but we had all the cards so could tailor it to our customers interests. There was always blank cards we could write on if need be as well. Could always tell who was on by the state of the poster. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm not saying I definitely wouldn't piss on Keith Jackson if he was on fire, but I'd certainly give him a chance to catch alight first though........ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players like Jake Hastie, Ethan Erhahon, Callum Morrison, SeanMackie, etc.. who have come from their academies and become first team regulars for their clubs in the last few months wouldn't be counted in his numbers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
