Mounts Kipper Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 (edited) Not in favour of the ban, what’s next no Ale? (Not that I drink during yet game) but it’s looking more and more like a sterilised offer to me add the kneeling and the general mee mawing for some one who’s popped their clogs then it’s slowly becoming a place I’m less likely to visit. Today’s offer is nothing like the slap bang wallop offer of the 1970s when I fell in love with BWFC & football.

What I would say though - were there betting kiosks at burnden, was it traditionally part of the matchday experience? I think it's right that society needs to tackle the over availability of betting as there is clearly a problem, but I understand that a quick bet before the game is probably no different to buying a golden goal type thing for the vast majority of people.

Don’t often bet at the match but I’d occasionally pick first goal scorer, Pre match at Burnden I’d bet at the bookies on manny road. It’s just a creeping sanitisation of the game and that’s why I’m not in favour. Edited September 24, 2021 by Mounts Kipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly things change over time, but football has always been about passion, emotions, a break from the daily routine. It mustn't become part of the grinding norm.

Always been betting, and shops etc. Good argument that it is now too easy, but it will always be there. Finding the right balance is the difficulty.

Lt. Aldo Raine Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Did we actually still have concourse betting kiosks? I thought we'd done away with them years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
