Premier League clubs criticized by gambling stakeholders for planning to ditch betting shirt sponsors

Campaigners have criticized Premier League football clubs' proposals to stop featuring gambling sponsors on team shirts as "incoherent" since they neglect more obvious forms of advertising like pitchside hoardings. The subject is anticipated to be put to a vote before June, and clubs in the English top division are said to be close to agreeing on a plan to remove betting sponsors willingly off shirts. The government is now reviewing gambling legislation more broadly and is anticipated to release a white paper explaining its plans later this month.
