BK8 has a past record of sponsoring Premier League clubs like Norwich but was dismissed due to their advertising which faced criticism for its portrayal of women.  What&#8217;s particularly noteworthy is that this Asian wagering company was originally intended to be Villa&#8217;s primary jersey sponsor, but that arrangement collapsed after supporters voiced their opposition. <\/p>\n<p>It appears that Villa&#8217;s chief executive, Christian Purslow, convened with a supporter group to tackle apprehensions, essentially stating that while some fans desire a departure from gambling sponsors, the financial resources simply aren&#8217;t comparable to what an entity like BK8 can provide. This seemingly contradicts Purslow&#8217;s prior statements about the club completely distancing itself from gambling sponsorships, which explains the discontent among fans and anti-gambling advocacy groups. <\/p>\n<p>Rumors circulated that the English football top tier was poised to remove betting company logos from their kits last year, but governmental intervention at the eleventh hour altered the regulations.  It appears the sport remains connected to wagering firms for the time being. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aston Villa, a team in the English Premier League, has guaranteed supporters that they&#8217;ve carefully scrutinized BK8 before committing to a fresh sponsorship agreement.
