"Skrill has undergone a number of changes and will be aligning any future sponsorship activity to its global strategy"

that's a full house in bull**** Bingo..  :)

Maybe they just realised that sponsoring non league football is like throwing all your money into the sea.

Is it just me, or is it the case that no-one else :-

1) had never heard of them before their sponsorship began,

2) has not seen anything since they started to sponsor the league with their name to it, save of course these conference leagues,

3) has ever heard of anyone using them for anything.

I wonder if they do actually exist?

They used to be MoneyBookers, who I had heard of but never used.
I create YouTube videos (BUFC/FM/CM 01-02), and stream Football Manager on Twitch as BostonUnitedFM.

I used them once last year.
But doubt will ever use them again.

With BT Sports covering matches in the Premier,  I should think another sponsor will step forward to take Skrill's place.  There is plenty of time to find a replacement.
