Oh edgy yeah!!!
Political correctness gone mad etc.
Terrible marketing. But what do you expect from scum book makers?
Playing up to the image which prevented us enjoying a game against England for 15+ years.
Its not exactly clear who they are accusing of being ‘yobs’ either, or why they are acting as if its ‘yobs’ is just a part of society that is to be expected and ‘proofed’ against.
Perhaps we should ‘proof’ against gambling addiction by removing their stores from every corner, or banning advertising at sporting events. Sure its not even called the Heineken Cup any more……
Jaysus lighten up, just a bit of craic, seem clear enough to me who they are calling yobs it says: designated english supporters’ betting shop.
No, it’s typical low-brow marketing from this scummy company that relies on the addiction of its customer base.
It’s brilliant marketing in fairness.
You bet it is.
Well if it isn’t the Archbishop of Banterbury. Mind don’t you choke on your retainer.
Massive overuse of quotation marks, keep up the “great” work.
Don’t be a moaney twit. Poking fun at things like this takes away the edge.
Poor dog. Why make him/her sit outside all day on their own?
He lost all his wags in the bookies?
On the bones of his *nomnomnom*
He’s at odds with himself.
As long as he isn’t in the cold furlong
I hope he gets evens with them
Hes accumulated alot of stick over this
Watch him roll over and win hearts.
No dice! I’d rather do a pony
Hope the ‘yobs’ thrash the place!
I think they are living in some kind of bubble
I suspect most people won’t get this without it being explained.
poor dog. but the rest of this is hilarious.
bubble wrap is flammable.
just sayin like..
Nothing like telling a potential Hooligan element “Come and have a go if you think you’re hard enough”
“Oi. Which one of you bitches wants to dance?”
“Millwall, Millwall, you’re all really dreadful, and your girlfriends are unfulfilled and alienated…”

If there was a similar piss-take on the stereotypical Irish Paddy, say an AA counsellor sitting outside a pub in Piccadilly for an England/Ireland international we would be the first to complain. The marketing department in Paddy Power are dunderheads and I for one will laugh my arse off if the ‘yobs’ trash this place.
bet you a tenner they won’t.
And do you think that Paddy Power would be disappointed if the place was indeed trashed?
The answer is no.
Doesn’t make it less funny, i’d laugh at the AA piss take too, its called a sense of humor. people complain about anything and everything. Lets ban all jokes/piss takes all together because they may cause offence
You’ll laugh your arse off if they trash the place?
What is wrong with you?
It’d be fair funny if they stood outside the place, didn’t touch it but stopped people from going in.
It’s funny. Chill.
Custom Cut Epsom 3.10.
Had it on the nose :(
Ditto.
This time next year Rodney…
shur if they make it yob-proof they’ll have no customers left
I read somewhere recently that 1300 hooligans who are well known to the UK police are being prevented from travelling over for the game, I really hope there’s no trouble on Sunday.
They are all goons who attend lower class gatherings
See you there so :P
Irony of people who have no problem with this and yet were foaming at the mouth and hurling insults over that Australian politician the other day.
