doubleonothing Posted 21 August, 2013 Share Posted 21 August, 2013 @SouthamptonFC: Read the full story on our new partnership with @SBOBETweets, who have become #SaintsFC's Asian Betting Partner: http://t.co/kNKlqq5ht8 Presumably means we keep our existing bookies at SMS. Not sure how this "Asian Betting Partner" thing will work. (Possible new sponsors for next season maybe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Possible new sponsors for next season maybe) It would be nice to have a professional firm running the bookmaking at SMS, rather than that noddy skate outfit (although it is nice taking money off of them).

adrian lord Posted 21 August, 2013 Share Posted 21 August, 2013 (edited) How does Asian betting differ to European betting? lots of fixing expect floodlight failures, funny mistimed throw ins, balls inexplicably hoofed out....

Colinjb Posted 21 August, 2013 Share Posted 21 August, 2013 They were already a sponsor from my recollection of the animated sponsor hoardings last season. It was rumoured before aap3 signed up as title sponsor that an 'asian betting company' had actually offered more money for the contract too... may be wrong there.

Griffo Posted 21 August, 2013 Share Posted 21 August, 2013 What a load of w*nk. Soon we'll have Asian sponsorship partners for toilet cleaning at St Mary's. Pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedAndWhite91 Posted 21 August, 2013 Share Posted 21 August, 2013 Can't help but think a) Why do we need an Asian Betting Partner? b) Why does this warrant an article on the OS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kraken Posted 21 August, 2013 Share Posted 21 August, 2013 Can't help but think a) Why do we need an Asian Betting Partner? b) Why does this warrant an article on the OS? Money. The top clubs have got all sorts of official partners; Manchester United have Yanmar as their "official diesel engine partner". Its all about creating an illusion of exclusivity; so clubs will only have one official brand per industry sector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malcolm waldron Posted 21 August, 2013 Share Posted 21 August, 2013 Can't help but think a) Why do we need an Asian Betting Partner? b) Why does this warrant an article on the OS? FFS - dont people realise how far we've come. Three years ago we didn't even have a betting partner - let alone an Asian one. Now we've got one, and not just any Asian partner - but SBOBBOT or whatever they're called. If anything signals how far we've come in the last 18 months it's this announcement - FFS.........

RedAndWhite91 Posted 21 August, 2013 Share Posted 21 August, 2013 Money. The top clubs have got all sorts of official partners; Manchester United have Yanmar as their "official diesel engine partner". Its all about creating an illusion of exclusivity; so clubs will only have one official brand per industry sector. It's all very specific isn't it. But I guess if it makes the most £££, then that's what clubs care about. FFS - dont people realise how far we've come. Three years ago we didn't even have a betting partner - let alone an Asian one.

CB Fry Posted 22 August, 2013 Share Posted 22 August, 2013 How does Asian betting differ to European betting? All betting slips are plain red. All betting shops have red interiors.

Our Official Hot Flask and Woolly Blanket provider for the Itchen? Maybe Turks can comment on our Official Fashion Partner? Will Ann Summers really come out with an official range of Dani toys for the Woman in your life?... Oh the list could be endless......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
