We should try tap into the Jewish market maybe even sign an Israeli player??

SolarEdge & Bank Leumi are massive companies in Israel too

Iv found the perfect Israeli/ Portuguese citizenship player too!! Shon Weissman - Player profile 21/22
Eyal Berkovic could probably still do a job.

Anyone remember him and Ali Bernabia running rings around us.... and Dave Jones' takeaway from the game was that he should pull out all the stops to sign that lump up front Jon Macken. Baffling.

Here’s a conspiracy… more and more red creeping into our shirt now… we know the Chinese love a red shirt… this is the start, we’ll be in a full red home kit in a few years.

You heard it here first!

:p

Hope for Jeff's sake that this Israeli sponsor isn't legit otherwise he's on a proper roll this week. ****ing half the fanbase off by calling them legacy fans, now potentially ****ing off future fans by having an affiliation with a country that isn't well liked by countries in the middle & far east. he wouldn't be that stupid surely???

I’m younger gen and cant get my head around NFTs. Are NFTs and Crypto (to a less extent) just massive ponzi schemes?
Have to invest big to make big many lose out but some gain it’s a lottery because the markets fluctuate so much

Do these guys undermine the sanctions against Russia?

Not sure about that to be fair. I know that both Russia and Ukraine moved into cryptocurrencies to move their money around after the war started, and Astropay deal in crypto.

They are a Fintech and deal in money transfers. They seem to make a lot of money from betting. So despite the Government's attempt to regulate it feels like we are swapping one betting company for another.

Not just crypto, read their press release, they're a payment platform specialising in countries where card and fund access is limited, due to legal issues with governments. They allow you to pay in currencies as well as crypto.

A quick Google shows that they do operate in Russia.

If you look on Trust Pilot Astropay are hardly getting lots of glowing reviews, reading them I wouldn't go anywhere near them personally. Though as regards anybody sponsoring I suppose all that matters is how much they pay as let's be honest money is all that really matters in football these days.
I must admit I don't get all the anger towards the betting sponsors as gambling is a choice, I have a bet virtually every day and have done for 40 years and get lots of enjoyment from it having always bet within my means. There are lots of things in life that cause people problems financially through addiction and just as an example someone that is addicted to buying designer clothes, even though they don't need them and can't afford can still end up in loads of debt but no one would mind if we were sponsored by Gucci.

Agreed on the red. But for me it’s much better than recent years so I’m happier
Looks very similar to last year’s Castore offering to me but obviously it’s good for the club if fans like the shirt and buy it. Looks like I’ll be going retro again-hopefully the necks on the 96 shirts aren’t as massive as they were on the originals!

Looks pretty decent,not bothered at all by the betting sponsor on the sleeve,a betting ad won't make me want to go off the rails and gamble all my money away. At the end of the day it's a football shirt,seeing Barca's new shirt didn't want me to take out a music subscription!

A lot of clubs will be looking to shift their Betting sponsorships to Crypto ones over the next few years, the problem is that the Crypto market took a big downturn these last few months and all that 'free' money that clubs were licking their lips at might not be as forthcoming as they thought come renewal time.

Very soon (if not now) Crypto will be a very good buy.

I got hammered with the recent LUNA collapse - annihilated.

The market is on its **** but that's when it's a good time to buy.

£3.5k will buy you 0.1 of a bitcoin.
If you're prepared to hold it and not panic if it goes lower then it could benefit you massively in the future (not financial advice).

There's 2 ways of looking at crypto. The fiat (£) value, and sats (value of partial bitcoins - also alt coins against bitcoin).
You can stack more sat value by trading ALTs to increase your bitcoin holding.

Bitcoin is the daddy. It's as safe as it can possibly be in crypto land.

The whole scene is ridiculously volatile and I refuse to use leverage (a type of gambling on the market) because im taking a risk being in crypto in the first place. Leverage is a level beyond my appetite for risk.

I started in Jan/Feb 2021 and by April I'd more than doubled my investment. Following market manipulations and the recent crashes my initial investment is worth just 20% of what it was at peak (or a twelfth to be more accurate).

It may go down further, but its widely acknowledged that it will go much, much higher. It just might be a much longer game than initially expected.

Some were predicting £1m/bitcoin by the end of 2021, which never materialised.

Just to reiterate, it's not financial advice. It's risky as ****.

Just been told it's legit

Good news. Not perfect (any bits of red should be banned on a wolves kit as it’s dangerously close to Watford territory) but nonetheless this kit is a subtle but big improvement for me. Mainly due to the awful previous sponsor but also due to general fannying around on the shirt with random panels and white bits.

Delighted to announce that after several years I will be ending my boycott and buying one (Jeff punches air).
