    Betting sponsorship

    I really can't stand Paddy Power and this is the latest one of their stupid publicity stunts.

    Paddy Power are great! They don;t care and know how to get people talking about them via dangerous humour!

    Some of their publicity stunts have been quite funny. They’re brand is brash and laddish with what looks a focus on attracting younger 20 - 30 somethings gamblers, but nothing they have done so far has tempted me to open an account with them.

    I don’t blame Paddy Power at all but I’d be gutted if Hibs ever allowed anything like that.

    this is my take as well.

    Despite all the brash advertising and Ryan Giggs brother talking about "loyalty" I have yet to download the app or open an account....

    As publicity stunts go, it's a pretty clever one.

    They do stuff like this so guys like you share it on forums and social media. One of the better bookies.

    Got people talking about Paddy Power and Huddersfield. No brainer on both sides.

    Nothing wrong with PP if you're a gambler.

    You’ve just shared a story about it to a social media site with thousands of members so I think they are achieving their goal. If you truly can’t stand them, stoping sharing stories about their latest PR stunts.

    They've now released a proper strip with no sponsor. Paddy Power giving the strip back to the fans. Healthy eye rolling implied.

    They have played a blinder both them and the club, they both got more PR from that one launch and game than they would have got all season

    Paddy Power no matter what you think of them have a class PR dept
