@VaughanLewis1@nickluck Also, on the basis of accepting your first two points, it is a tripartite issue. Gambling companies restricting their biggest and most loyal customers is a crucial element and I think it is disingenuous to say it isn’t. Who else is going to fight for the sport?
@VaughanLewis1@nickluck You are looking at the problem from the lens of the 2010s. Maybe 10 years ago you had enough punters who couldn’t win but were still willing. Since then information has been democratized and betting liberalized - why would punters bet somewhere they know they can’t win?
@nickluck@VaughanLewis1 The second a company domiciled in Curacao starts offering racing odds, and there is liquidity, UK betting companies die. You can blame the gambling commission for that if you want, but the fact they’ve made themselves hostile to their best customers has to be considered.
Never ever let them forget that this was their best season ever. They will never be as big as Charlton and none of their little hooligan fantasies will ever mean they are. #millwall#cafc
