Notts County have today announced that the shirts to be worn in Saturday's FA Cup second-round game with Oxford City will sport a William Hill Plus logo on the chest and a William Hill logo on the sleeve, plus there will be other branding around the stadium.

Notts have previously done one-off shirt sponsor deals in cup games (Man City, Liverpool) but is doing it with a non-league side just a bit too far?

That said, having Paragon (Hardy's company) as the default sponsor for cup games was a genius move... his own business gets promoted, but it's also a blank slate for the highest bidder.

Thoughts on this deal?

If it gives us some extra money that we can invest in important areas such as the team or stadium, I am all for it. I think it's just smart business these days, whilst some may complain that its a betting company - at the end of the day the majority that pays well and expresses interest usually are.

I just hope that it tops up the money that BT Sports gives us and that we can use it to continue moving forward.

It just seems like standard business to me.

Good business , earn when you can in instances of this kind , maximize income , it just makes sense .

no issue with it myself, i am sure some fans will be complaining about it.
