    I don't mind the logo, in fact I think it looks nicer than just simple white text, but it's indeed a bit too big.

    However, I hate pretty much everything else about this sponsor and what they stand for, so I won't be buying a shirt this season.

    Looks hideous. Thank god I bought my away shirt before it gets ruined by it. Notice that they won’t print it on kids shirts are crypto companies treated like gambling companies are?

    Social media is going to be a disaster this season, especially if they're tagging it every week. I guess it's all clicks for the club, but the bots and hodlers are not going to stop grifting. This kind of thing in a recession is their dream.

    Those replies have to be bot accounts. I've never known any sponsor we've ever had have people bashing the fans for not liking the sponsor. It's crazy.

    I wonder how the club feel tonight, seeing the content of their twitter threads with hex? They’ve basically opened the floodgates to their social media being spammed and fans getting harassed. Nice work.

    Already muted loads of these bot accounts but know that more will arise.

    The ridiculous over sized logo on the shirt and these stupid not accounts are taking a bit of the shine off what should be a really positive evening after our first win and clean sheet under Duff. What a rubbish choice partnering with this firm. Hope the fee was huge.

    The desperate pyramid builders are clamouring for us all to invest as it’s the only way they’ll make their money back… it’s obvious. They have a team of Hex warriors pretending they are millionaires from it…. It’s dodgy af.

    Check the replies section of this fellas account. He's spent ages replying to our fans trying to help Hex save face.

    I don't think they give a **** to be honest, if they did they wouldn't have signed up a sponsor like this, have agreed to such a blatantly illegal logo on the shirt or have, in the face of an overwhelming negative response, included hex in their subsequent tweets

    I think some people are getting their first glimpse of the crypto community. Yes there’s bots, but it isn’t all bots, this is just what it gets like. Certain coins create this ‘movement’ that just become obsessed with what they are/think they are, building.

    Lots of non-bots absolutely made up at the sponsorship announcement. Not saying this in defence of the deal, and really just an observation.

    I hope that those Hex creeps are at least paying well for their oversized logo.

    OK I have tried to find what might be a positive. The amount of people that seem to worship Hex to God like status if they buy the replica shirts (not jersey or t shirt as they call it) as they claim they were going to then we might make a few extra quid. Someone can ask the CEO whenever the next supporters meeting takes place how replica kit sales are compared to last time we were in league one and if we've seen much of a increase in overseas sales. Time will tell.

    Bots or not it's really bloody annoying having them dive onto replies of fans.

    I posted a reply on Twitter earlier saying that I thought the logo was two big and had a number of these accounts reply already so it's more to my twitter muted list. If this carries on all season it's going to be very very frustrating.

    I saw one Hex ‘fan’ earlier claim this sponsorship deal will secure us 100,000 more shirt sales, if that happens I’ll eat my own c0ćk!
