Take Wonga for example on the Newcastle shirts... a lot of people aren't happy as they class the company as a con and a rip off, who make peoples debts spiral out of control even more.
Gambling sponsors on shirts is another example.

Greenalls used to sponsor Newcastle in the 80's and even the youth teams would go round without any sponsorship.
I can't remember what the deal was with Sunderland and Vaux though and if they followed similar rules.

I personally do not think alcohol should be advertised on a bus.Get a grip. Advertising is for pretty much everything - cider is one of my favourite drinks, much like Cadbury's is my favourite chocolate and Chrome my favourite browser. Just because you don't like/part take in something doesn't mean it's wrong.

Why do they suddenly jerk forward really fast when accelerating, it is really uncomfortable for the passengers particularly those that are standing. Is there any explanation for this as I am sure it's not intended. I much prefer omnicity instead.

(24 Nov 2015, 4:48 pm)Dan wrote Go North East have a number of service performance supervisors who board random services and undertake quality audits, making note of missing branding and other quality issues.
I believe these supervisors also make note of passenger numbers on-board and sometimes undertake revenue protection checks.
