    I’ve spoke to every Charlton supporting parent today.

    I support Charlton
    I am a parent
    I never spoke to you :wink:
    Didn't speak to me either.

    But the problem is, advertising does affect kids, even if it's subliminal. In the early 80's, you couldn't move in my bedroom for rolls of wallpaper.

    The ludicrous part of this is, the child can't wear a top with BETDAQ on it, but they can look all around the ground and in front of them is BETDAQ all around the ground, in the programme, and on any adult shirt in their view. It's a stupid and poorly thought through rule.

    But unlike betting which is addictive and can destroy lives, yours was probably just a fad...

    pointless rule, my kids neither understand (or care) who betdaq are...however I do let them have a little bet each home game on the FGS ;)

    This proves two things:

    first @AFKABartram tells lies; and

    second the repugnant Daily Mail is his newspaper of choice. [I expect he will tell us that this article dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5286743/Premier-league-clubs-selling-shirts-gambling-ads.html published yesterday is mere coincidence (see fact one)].

    I'm boycotting. Protests are needed. No more banning of fish puns at his whim.

    Just sell the forum and fuck off.

    Earlier this year Newcastle were fined by the FA for breaching shirt sponsor regulations.

    What happens when you have under 18s in the first team? Do they have to wear a different/sponsorless shirt

    Think it only applies where the majority are under 18.

    Newcastle were fined £7,500 by the FA when their under 18 side wore a kit with a betting logo on it.

  • All kids nowadays are morbidly obese and therefore generally wear adult kits from the age of 8 anyway from what I hear.

    Given the size of our squad a few injuries and majority of the first team will be under 18.

    Lots of people are criticising AFKA for not speaking with them yesterday, but no one has picked up on his main faux pas which comes just two words in. Where you have an auxiliary verb, the past tense of speak is spoken. In case you are wondering, the 've part of I've is the auxiliary.

    Kind regards,
    Disgruntled, overlooked parent, Newcastle
  • You can just imagine the kids pulling on their shirts with betting companies on the front and thinking, immediately, where can I get a bet?
    The football authorities are a joke.

    Even now, in my mid 40s, I'm still badgering my dad for a red bus ....

    So if there’s about 37 watching it’s a no go but if we play a 16/17 year old against Sunderland on the tv it’s fine?

    I think more importantly, Hummel need to sort out the sizing of the shirts. My Grandson is 11 (albeit tall) and I had to buy him a small men's shirt last year!

    So the shirt had Betdaq on it anyway and I had to pay extra for an adult size!

    Agree 100% - how can you have a replica shirt which is not the same as what the players wear.

    Wouldn't be an issue if clubs didn't whore themselves out to betting companies.

    And you've only just realised that?
