I think paddy power is the most nauseating company in the world. Poncing money off mugs and then coming up with childish shit to promote themselves.

Agreed. Now merged with Betfair too.

Sportsbook Amounts Staked 7,003 Net Revenue 881.6

(And people whinge about the cost of the EU).

I quite enjoy Paddy Power's baiting of idiots to be honest. If you looked on Twitter right after they aired that advert it was full of weird little men calling them racist and claiming they were going to close their accounts because of a song where some Scottish people said they were going to bet against England. That's hilarious! I never find these people in real life, it's nice to be able to look in on them occasionally

Not a bad effort to get more fools to part with their hard earned.

I saw a "friend" on FB properly ranting about it and how they will be losing [English] customers over it. Very strange. Just a bit of fun.

i think paddy power are hilarious, its a bit of fun, constantly poking fun at england.

there best one i think was;

roy keane - mocked up at william wallace shouting at least weve got our freddom you wee pussies on the side of a bus was my favourite,

and from the weekend they had this little anecdote;

milwall eqaulise so the civil war between there fans at wembley is paused temporarily.

It does make me laugh when you see people on here calling anyone that likes to use their money to have a bet now and again, a mug or a fool.

Yet they probably use theirs on a Charlton Season Ticket!

Paddy Power is great just for the Fan Denial episodes alone.

Why are people who have a bet mugs?

se9addick

Surely no one, be they Scottish or English, is moaning about that ad ?

Cardinal Sin

For what it's worth, I was in Scotland at the weekend and my mates up there were very unhappy with this advert. Cringeworthy.

Weegie Addick

Doesn't strike the right note for me -most up here think it's about time Scots got past the English chip on the shoulder. It's just a bit simplistic and patronising.

Ireland currently 2-0 down at home to Belarus.

Way to go Paddy

People are so quick to be offended these days.

Bedsaddick

Love it . People are so confused as to if it's taking the piss out of The English or out of The Scottish that they feel the need to hate it.

Well done Paddy Power.

As long as you follow the only bet what you're able to lose rule, I suppose you're ok. Paddy Power is not really interested in you though is it? It's the ones pumping money on bets and their FOBTs they're really after. And enticing people in with laddish adverts is a way to hook people into gambling. And some of them will end up with an addiction that ruins lives.
I gamble occasionally but don't fool myself it's anything but a mug's game.
