"Aston Villa Mita, Mita Aston Villa, copy that, copy that" if I have remembered it right.

Was that to the tune of 'I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire'?

Let's hope the above doesn't impact on our betting partner too much...

Whether it impacts them or not, it's another example, after UnderArmour last year, of us associating ourselves with companies displaying questionable moral practices.

I appreciate the Acorns deal didn't make us any money but it didn't half make you feel proud.   Unlike the last few sponsors and kit manufacturers.

Felt exactly the same.  Acorns was our finest moment in terms of sponsorship, in my eyes

I'd add Unibet to that, to be honest. For no other reason than the industry that they're in.

Lets be fair, the problem they've been fined for was before the current owners took over so, generic gambling industry concerns aside, I think that's a little unfair.

Feeling proud don't pay the bills I am afraid.

Could be worse

I don't really see the issue. They're not doing genocide now, are they? And the money from tourism will help them improve their economy and get over the horrors of the nineties.

Should everyone have refused to have traded with Germany in the fifties and sixties?
