AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I have a hard time siding with any decision based on religion. Sorry Papi Me too, but the same could be said about decisions based on money. Like having Wonga as a sponsor. Neither side is really wrong TBH, obviously Cisse's interpretation of Islam is a bit 'flexible' but that can be said about the vast majority of religious people.

Hanshithispantz Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 The vote is currently: Yes, Wonga is unethical and his beliefs should be respected 17 (33.3%) Not sure, Wonga aren't the best company but he should just get on with it 17 (33.3%) No, it's a load of nonsense and he's out of order 17 (33.3%) Where is the 0.1%? There is no 0.1%, as the .3 in 33.3% is a recurring number. 33.3% +33.3% + 33.3% = 99.9% My mind is blown Just showing there is a 0.1% but people are ignorant to it so dismiss it by answering it does not exist. What are people dismissing out of ignorance? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JS Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 If I may offer a different take on this I think the whole thing is pretty stupid to be honest. I'm sorry but just browsing through the Wonga website it's pretty damn clear what the interest rate is, pages to break down how it's calculated and understood and how it's applied to short term 'payday' loans only. Their advertisement seems to revolve around that principle but when are people gonna start taking responsibility? If you sign an agreement to lend £100 or whatever and have it paid off within 2 months with the clear total cost outlined you've only got yourself to blame for not paying it back. no other lending company in the world would shrug these cases off over moral principles man, the same rules apply for everybody. Aye the APR is extortionate but what's the government done about it? As others have mentioned nobody had a problem with Northern Rock / Virgin Money who would still take action if you couldn't pay their loans back and still charge interest. Rich coming from a bloke who sits in Aspers like. If it's because they don't offer 0% interest rates under Sharia law well that's a personal choice based on religious beliefs but f*** me man, all this over a shirt sponsor.

I've been out of the loop for a bit and just catching up here. Can't believe this is an issue, fuck off with your religious crap keep that made up bullshit out of the sport. We've been sponsored by a bank who offer loans since Cisse has been employed by the club, what really is the difference here as JS says people need to take responsibility for their own actions, really.

Guest icemanblue Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 An angle I don't believe has been explored is the pressure Cisse might be under to make some kind of protest from external bodies. I know he has his charities, and is involved with his community back in Senegal. What's to say he's not getting it in the ear from religious groups linked to these? There's obviously a lot more to this than we currently know as, outwardly, he doesn't appear to be the most strict or devout Muslim. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
