Love how there's so much furore over alcohol, fast food and payday loan sponsorship but they'll quite happily have kids stood in bet365 stadium with the logo sprawled across their shirt :lol:

Just me that thinks it's a bit dodgy that a betting company owns a team?

 

Legally Bet365 don't own them at all.

Don't think that's true like.

 

From Stoke's own website: "The ultimate parent company of Stoke City FC Ltd is bet365 Group Ltd."

Peter Coates is Chairman of both bet365 and Stoke City.

 

The Joint Chief Executives of bet365 are Denise and John Coates, his children.

 

Safe to say they own each other.

Peter Coates actually has very little to do with bet365, it's Denise who runs the show. They're the ideal club owners really - incredibly successful local business. They pay all their tax as well as they are still 100% based in the UK, unlike most other betting companies. Good on them.

And their regular inplay offers are the best offers out there for existing customers. And their app's mint.

Best customer service too IMO. I had a bad experience and they were brilliant.

Is Stoke actually owned by bet365? Had no idea.

 

It's the same as our SD owner relationship more or less. Peter Coates owns both.

 

Funnier if you say "Coates" in the South American way.

 

:laugh: I never pronounce that surname any differently, entirely aware of the correct non-banter pronunciation.

For once I think it's pretty much spot on. Don't think Bellerin has been particularly great this season compared to second half of last season but there's not been any stand out RBs? Least it's not the generic Sagna selection.
