I know they have to accept money from whoever is offering it but it would be good if we could move away from gambling firms.

I read that's part of the reason why Ladbroke's aren't renewing, something about an agreement between betting firms to "scale back" their sports sponsorship. We'll see how long that lasts!

Really? I thought that just referred to the betting adverts before/at half-time of a game etc. Didn't realise it applied to entire competitions. If so the Betfred Cup and William Hill Scottish Cup will be no more also. Good riddance to the parasites I say. F 'em.

My guess would be whilst publicly they are bowing to pressure and doing something moral, the reality is the new laws regarding fixed odds betting terminals are killing their high street shops, as they were all that was keeping them open, so marketing is being scaled back to cut costs...
