eGR: You have undertaken high-profile sponsorships in the past of Leicestershire Cricket Club and Bradford City Football Club’s stand. Any more deals in the pipeline?
Jonathan Shepherd (JS): We actually sponsor a car – the “betrescue betmobile” which is a liveried up 4×4 we supply to Paul Jain, the betting editor at the Daily Record. It features in the paper each week. He’s onto his third car with us now!
eGR: Do you foresee an exit for Betrescue in the near future? How much would Betrescue be worth.
JS: Our plans are for further growth not exit. Having said that, everyone has their price and if a mind-blowing figure was put on the table we would obviously consider it. That would have to start with a five and have at least six zeros behind it, if that helps(!).
