Matchbook CEO Mark Brosnan said: “One of our key goals at Matchbook is to bring our bettors closer to their favourite sports and keep them up to speed with the latest news and insights. We are delighted that the betting public have once again enjoyed our content by voting for us to win this award for the second consecutive year. We hope to build on this success again in 2020 by continuing to evolve and improve our Podcasts.”
Peter Ling, the founder and owner of Smart Betting Club said: “The SBC Awards are important as they tell it how it is when it comes to the betting world. The SBC Awards are different, because they are based on the Smart Betting Club independent approach and key goal to help ordinary people with their betting. They reward those sites, services, bookmakers, and individuals doing the right thing – whether it be in the information or resource they provide or by simply offering you the best place to bet itself.
“With their blend of experts and professional gamblers discussing the big value betting opportunities across a popular range of sports it’s easy to see why the public have voted Matchbook as the Smart Betting Club’s Best Betting Podcast of the year.”
