This may in itself force the club to sack Milne.

Yeah, because a corporation dedicated to a form of 'entertainment' that destroys lives, families and communities can't have its good name tarnished, can it? *rolls eyes*

Was it a couple of million over 3 years?
Big loss if true for the club and might end up forcing the clubs hand.
At the same time if confirmed then Centrebet has jumped the gun. Hasn't even had a hearing yet!

Re: For all you anti-gamblers....
They are a very sad organisation and no loss. I've been trying for over two years to recover my winning wager, which was my one and only bet with them. Moving on to legal action now.

Gotta love the irony.

Re: For all you anti-gamblers....
A sponsor gone.
Will be a lean few years coming up, another "successful" club will pick them up and we lose their money...

Re: For all you anti-gamblers....
If that happens ill close my centre bet account immediately.
How dare they think they can take a moral high ground on any issue whatsoever.
Scum bags .
I'm sure they won't pay me for my bet on Sam Mitchell last year for brownlow even though Watson won and he is a cheating scum as well.

Re: For all you anti-gamblers....
Not the first sponsorship we've lost and certainly wont be the last !
They would want to be associated with a top club and as where down the bottom with the likelyhood of being down for a few years , they can use this to drop the sponsorship . Also from next year they wont be able to constantly shove the live odds down our throats , so its an easy out for them !

Could do, Microsoft needs as much promotion as possible to the mainstream community after the blow back from their reveal.
If rumour is true, it is way too soon, after all they must have known about the investigation when they signed on

Re: For all you anti-gamblers....
Why is it that everyone is up in arms about sports betting odds and no one cares that when channel 7/9 show the horse races that odds are shoved down our throat then? They even show comparisons between bookmaker odds and the tote odds. The analysts talk about value bets...who is over the odds and who is under the odds...it's all about the betting.mr six o'clock wrote:Also from next year they wont be able to constantly shove the live odds down our throats , so its an easy out for them !
Re: For all you anti-gamblers....
Anyone who thinks its good to lose a major sponsor obviously doesnt know our financial sitution and must just think we enjoy going to NZ twice a year. make that 4 times if this keeps up. Very bad. I dont care who sponsors us if it is legal and pretty sure centerbet is legal. Hopefully all rubbish though.

Wise old words, and even apply in this overly-PC world we live in.

i didn't like having them as a sponser but the loss of funds will hurt.
