Three year deal too, guess they're expecting Premier exposure.

Fulham are you listening - well done on not going for a betting sponsor.

Yes I'm pretty heavily invested in the Cardano blockchain system of which they are an integral part

Doing some incredible work in Africa.
Highly recommend looking into them, really this is such a turnaround from gambling sites. Really match our ethos as a family club

Without digging into the ethics of it too much, what happened to the BetVictor deal? It was supposed to be a two year sponsorship deal.

I assume that they had a relegation get out clause. That wouldn't be mentioned when the deal is announced in the media.

I'm not up on Modern tech but this seems like a worthy shirt sponsor.

We get to see the new home & away shirt tomorrow by all accounts.

"Fans will get their very first look at our new Home and Away kits – featuring World Mobile – when they are launched tomorrow, Wednesday 28th July."

World Mobile are part of a 3rd generation crypto currency called Cardano (a decentralised finance platform) That is looking to change the centralised banking system we have towards a more decentralised system. They are doing remarkable work in Africa at the moment.

highly recommend people watching the above link - its long but if you want to skip to the World Mobile section it starts about 30mins in.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhIYXIMJNno this is the link just to that section if the rest is too daunting

Yes I did, Solid enough project, but over the years I have diversified among a number of projects that took me in a little more personally, plenty chance there will be a world where many of these co-exist and are interporerable without us even thinking about it... but glad I got in on Cardano and its ecosystem as my main focus given the progress they're making. They are doing a great job of methodically and meticulously working on the tech whilst also understanding and doing a great job of marketing which so many of the other platforms (that are great) don't seem to be able to harness in the same way.

Getting a team shirt without a betting sponsor on it may tempt me to buy a Fulham shirt for the first time in a few years.

Everyone going 'Wow no betting company, what a lovely club we are' seems to have forgotten that we will have a betting company (Spreadex) on the back of our shirt. A step in the right direction, yes, getting them off the front of the shirt, but let's not pretend like we're now suddenly completely ethically sound.

I wouldn't get too excited, give it a couple of years and it will be back to being a betting company again

I think we need government legislation to get it off the front of all shirts

Not a betting company or pay day lender, fine by me.
