Strategic CSR - Gambling

The article in the url below contains an interesting statistic for all those of you who are fans of football's Premier League:

 

"In the season that kicked off on Friday, 11 out of 20 clubs feature the names of gambling companies on their uniforms, a testament to the league's growing dependence on the industry."

 

Quite the statement about the influence of gambling on the sport, how quickly it has grown, and what it says about our society.

 

Take care

David
