Read it again. I said behind their hip below their bollocks and over their shoulder If you noticed they all played with their shirts hung out That's the sash, I think the confusion is what constitutes the logo, the lettering by itself or inclusive of the sash? If it's the former then the sheer size of it will fall foul of the regulations anyway. It’s the lettering alone... Sponsor advertising on a patch which is based on one of the main colours of the shirt – i.e. white sponsor logo on a red and white striped shirt. In this scenario the area measured would only be that around the sponsor’s logo even if this logo may stand out more prominently because of the white stripes in the shirt.

Just out of curiosity have you expressed the same concerns for past two years with OPE, and other years with alcohol related sponsors (I am too lazy to troll thru all a user's past posts)? I felt uncomfortable with it, but this brazen f**k you approach to advertising gambling is toe curlingly embarrassing and wrong. Sorry if I'm idealistic and naive. Please tell me I'm a snowflake. This brazen approach has been highlighted as a great opportunity for charities who help addicts due to the exposure over the last few days. I wonder how many people have ‘taken up’ gambling based on this sash? My guess, none. You don’t need to make out you are the speaker of all good. The lady doth protest too much.

Won't call you any names, and in principle actually I agree, it is not right to have these types of sponsors when sport has moved into a more family oriented world. But, we are not the first or the last or the only club to do so, and think it a bit unfair for the club to be bashed (that said can hear Granny saying "two wrongs do not make a right") for doing what is essentially the norm nowadays. Personally would prefer Yorkshire air ambulance or forget me not hospice to be utilized.

People on here are upset about the attention that we are drawing to ourselves. They would prefer that we be humble and below the radar, in truth that would be my preference too. But that ship has sailed, we have had two years in the greedy league and despite Phil saying that all the money has been spent, we are going to be a target for everyone else in our new environment no matter who our sponsor is. That being the case, why not go on the front foot and embrace our infamy, a bit like Millwall. I'm sure that our talented youngsters will be loving the media attention, it should give them confidence,
and confident footballers score goals!

Looking at the lettering I honestly can't see that as less than 20 square cm in total.

I still have no clue about if this is real or not. If its fake how long are we dragging this out for? Its available Saturday? So maybe a real shirt reveal tomorrow with a new player? I also don't get why the megastore twitter hasn't pushed it, luke Cowan has gone very quiet, SJ has disappeared up his own arse (again) and you can't actually pre order? If it's a prank it's dragging on and making a mockery of us. If it's real then whatever but let's have some clarity please. I could cope with sash aspect to be honest, I don't like though how big it is. It takes away the identity of Huddersfield Town as all you can see is huge sponsors writing It’s 100% real, but only if you believe in a world where Bradford City would name one of their stands “The Mamma Mia Stand”. 😬😬

It would be nice if they sold an optional "Paddy Power" sash for those that might prefer that option

I take back what I said about it going on for too long. This is an incredible initiative and one which has caused a right shitstorm on social media. We've had absolutely everyone's pants down. UTFT!!
P.S that kit is sexy.
