Watford offered that when Mr Q was their sponsor, following the betting scandal. It's in the Athletic article. Watford and Mr Q have already allowed the club’s shirts to be sold without the gambling sponsor this season, an option which has been taken up by some fans. |  |

| New Front of Shirt Sponsor on 16:55 - Jun 5 by MKQPR | Championship clubs usually get between 250k-1mil a season for a front shirt sponsor. When they sponsored Watford it was around the 1mil mark. Unfortunately Money talks |
I would be amazed if it was as high as 250k . |  | |  |

Thinking about it the value to a sponsor is the tv exposure and the client hosting facility . Fans shirts at the amount we sell will be a very small |  | |  |

Surely we've had more sponsors go into liquidation than any other club? |  |

Good point. I would Hazard a guess that alcohol kills more people every year in the UK than betting and gambling does. It killed my old man. |  |

Thats about £1.50 on the price of every ticket for every match. |  | |  |

Precisely what I was thinking. I suspect more of us have seen alcohol rather than gambling having a detrimental influence on families. My grandad, lovely man, but went blind and died aged 64 from sclerosis after a very long standing drink problem but I don’t bang on about the Guinness shirt, actually love the shirt. Then again, that was long before virtue signalling became a thing. I dunno. |  | |  |

Never a good sign when it’s shoved out at 4pm on a Friday. Equally never good when the best defence is “well at least it’s not smack”. |  | |  |

Pretty sure alcohol and cigarette brands are banned from advertising, and for good reason. Betting will be next, somewhere down the line. We all loved the Guinness one, just because of the team at the time , the nostalgia, not because we all liked a pint of the black stuff. [Post edited 5 Jun 19:31]

My 14 y/o daughter has a Guinness QPR shirt. She doesn’t and never will have a QPR shirt with a (family destroying) gambling company smeared across the front. Really grind my gears. Absolute scum. Stupid club. |  | |  |

The irony of promoting a gambling company in the Stan Bowles stand is not lost on me. Stan who struggled with it big time back in the day . Needs must I suppose. |  | |  |
