weeyin Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 I see we have a new back of shirt sponsor - Bet Park. I clicked the link to their website (from our official site) and was interested to see it was displayed in Turkish. Even when I switched to English, most of it was still displayed in Turkish. While I'm happy we have another revenue stream, the website makes it look a little sketchy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobey_Dosser Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 So they aren't a bookmakers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted August 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 So they aren't a bookmakers? Bookmaker / Casino it looks like. Lots of video slots to keep the kids busy. They also have some "Virtual" games. which looks like you can bet on a video game being played. Difficult to tell though as my Turkish is a bit rusty. I have no issues with sports betting, or sports betting websites. Just would have preferred to see something on English on our launch day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 So we're signing Ciftci, is what you're saying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballso Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 Similar to when we had Jaxx as our main sponsor. I think at the time they were a German company who as part of the sponsorship looked to move into the UK with a similar online setup. Don't think it lasted very long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
numpty Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 "Caribbean-based gaming company" according to the 'fishel site ("Authorised and Regulated by the Government of Curaçao" according to their own website), which makes the whole Turkish thing even more odd...

Gambling is highly regulated in Turkey so it's probably aimed at Turks living outside Turkey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
numpty Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 Gambling is highly regulated in Turkey so it's probably aimed at Turks living outside Turkey. Which is fair enough, but I can't imagine that means they'll benefit much from raising their profile around the 'Shire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelboy Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 Which is fair enough, but I can't imagine that means they'll benefit much from raising their profile around the 'Shire. They are obviously aiming at the lucrative Motherwell Turkish barber market... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think it lasted very long They were a shocking company to bet with. Any decent winners early on and they were requesting ID before they paid out and wanted you to jump through hoops. Does part of this new deal with this mob include us cutting their logo into our pitch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the smaller online gambling companies are probably just money laundering fronts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCDave Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 JAXX and their nightmare multi-coloured logo. What a laugh that was! I still receive the odd email from them every now and then, so they're still on the go somewhere.. never actually gone any further than scanning the email right enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
