Last year Premier League clubs in England collectively agreed to withdraw gambling sponsorship from the front of shirts.
The headline reads “record agreement” but this feels like another tone deaf decision from the man who has undersold Scottish football for over a decade.
Everyone loves Boring Milner , the football parody account that riffs on James Milner being a huge bore.
Today we reveal its alliance with Fanwave Digital, which runs Andy’s Football Tips, a 'tipster' that funnels punters to Paddy Power in exchange for a fee.

Could anybody make use of James’ The Big Step hoodie? It seems a shame for it to just sit in storage, only worn once. Size XL. Happy to cover postage to send out. Lemme know 😁
