Fair enough about the 2006 advert :+1: TBF he was a bit young then :joy: I do find it funny that people get worked up that he does a good thing though. Being a anti-Man utd fan I am not his biggest fan but fair play to the guy and whatever sponsorship he did get was tiny in comparison to his main ones.

I hate admitting it but especially since he left Man Utd he has been an absolute role model and is a living legend.

Edit - I am also a Coke shareholder for the divs so a total hypocrit myself but still found it funny :joy: :man_facepalming:

I really like him as a player but donā€™t like hypocritical celebs (Emma Thompson is the worst), if he had just moved the bottles out the way and saidā€™ look i used to advertise this stuff but now i think its sugary pissā€™ that would of been ok. Also plastic bottles of water are not exactly environmentally friendly.

Donā€™t disagree about the celebs thing but only the media made a big deal out of it he simply moved the bottles and said water :joy: besides, we all do things we regret many years ago. The quotes doing the rounds are from a while ago when asked about his kid so he didnā€™t actually make a big deal of it at the press conference and just didnā€™t want them in front of him as if he endorses them now.

For that I respect him. :+1: :clap:

TBF he wasnā€™t against the brand just the sugary drinks for kids. :+1: The bottle had no label. God, I canā€™t believe I am defending CR7 :man_facepalming: what would my teams fans think :joy:

His work effort is phenomenal, 36 and he is probably the fittest player on the pitch, after every game he comes back out on to train by himself.

Its the non alcohol version but that doesnā€™t matter, no idea why FIFA allows this. Adverts at the game are one thing but trying to promote something using a footballer who hasnā€™t given their permission is wrong. Sponsorship is needed to pay for the tournament but needs to be done with some thought.

Pogbaā€™s water has a label. I canā€™t figure out what brand it is. Iā€™m curious

Probably Vio - one of Cokeā€™s German water brands.

Has anyone received their KO dividend yet? It was meant to be today, but Iā€™m not sure if it can take a while to arrive?

I am still waiting also. Having to wait isnā€™t unusual.

You may already have received the dividend in your account. The email notification and activity feed update are sometimes annoyingly behind.

I donā€™t hold KO, but think I received a VUSA dividend without any info. I previously received a BP dividend before the notification arrived and accidentally invested it in something else rather than reinvested it in the same.

Thinking of buying a stock for good dividends. Anybody got advice on this one

Hello

No, stocks donā€™t charge anything (except fx fees when buying and selling). But if you buy funds or ETFs, there are charges.
