Tbh I'm surprised Stanley can afford to do this every year. Didn't we once have to give them a load of money to stop them being liquidated?

Rovers could do it or offer a discount on a shirt for any under 16 with season ticket or junior membership. Plus a free hat, scarf and gloves for any child under 11 who is season ticket holder. Holt sees as increase its fanbase and I know a family member son who got a free Stanley shirt and now he is a Stanley supporter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XLM Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 On 20/06/2023 at 03:15, XLM said: Having a vaping company as our primary sponsor is not a great look (regardless of the MS Paint logo) when there are plentiful stories in the media about an increase in under age usage. Particularly of disposables, which are also terrible environmentally. Usage is up 50% year-on-year in under 18s according to https://ash.org.uk/resources/view/use-of-e-cigarettes-among-young-people-in-great-britain. There are some comments along the lines of "they're for adults", "it's illegal to sell to children so it's irrelevant" etc. which is true, but it's not illegal to give them to children free of charge oddly enough, and the promotion of e-cigarettes where children see them is also increasing... Like on their footballing idols for instance. I'm not anti-vape in general, as a smoker the benefits are obvious. They may be bad, but cannot be worse than traditional cigarettes. But that doesn't mean having them front and centre of the Rovers "brand" is a good idea. Rovers could be used as an example of vaping companies advertising to children. What if in a BBC news piece they show the Rovers kit then transition to a shot of kids stood outside school vaping and poking dead squirrels or whatever kids do? It just shows it hasn't been thought through. ...

That’s always been the rationale, not much of a secret, they’ve just never been particularly arsed in getting round to it. Maybe if they had we wouldn’t have had this debacle of a decade.
