A bank’s Post

Absolutely spot on Monty Proud to represent yourself and Jack for The University of Manchester and Govan & Uni of Manchester FC, two coaches and clubs who stood up for what was right without exception and made sure we did the same. Too often in the Manchester Football League and British Universities & Colleges Sport (BUCS) did I witness openly homophobic remarks made either towards teammates or generally. Incidents, which more often than not, went unpunished, even after reported. If brutally honest, I think we’re all aware that this rainbow laces campaign run by The Football Association has been the most lacklustre in years. A cynic may ponder whether this is due to the expose of Rainbow Washing characters like seemingly key allies such as England Vice-Captain Jordan Henderson. Whilst it is particularly disheartening to see an ally of the community turn his back for one last payday, scrutiny should start with those at the pinnacle of football decision making. It is no wonder that the LGBTQ community still feel unsafe in the game when examining FIFA’s selection for recent World Cup hosts. Russia 2018 Russian pro-LGBT advocacy groups are deemed extremist and banned, and it is illegal for individuals to "promote homosexuality". The nation provides no anti-discrimination protections for LGBT people and does not have a designation for hate crimes based on sexual orientation and gender identity. Qatar 2022 Qatar criminalises same-sex sexual activity between men and between women. Sentences can include a possible maximum penalty of death by stoning. Saudi Arabia 2034 Saudi Arabia criminalises same-sex sexual activity between men and between women. The gender expression of trans people is also criminalised. Sentences include a maximum penalty of death. There is evidence of the law being enforced in recent years. It is therefore no surprise that grassroots football is still rife with anti-LGBT sentiment. Football needs to better, we must do more and it is why I am particularly proud and honoured to have represented strictly antifascist and outwardly inclusive clubs such as Govan & Uni of Manchester FC and Clapton CFC, where behaviour like this would be instantly shut down.

🌟 Considering sponsoring a successful local football team? Here's why it's a winning opportunity: 1️⃣ Community Visibility: Boost your brand's visibility among local residents and football enthusiasts. 2️⃣ Brand Exposure: Gain exposure through team jerseys, banners, and social media promotion, reaching a wider audience. 3️⃣ Positive Image: Align your brand with teamwork, sportsmanship, and community support, enhancing your reputation. 4️⃣ Customer Engagement: Connect with potential customers in a relaxed, social setting, fostering stronger relationships. As an added incentive one person in particular is notorious for taking his top off as often as possibly during the intervals. As for the fore mentioned people tagged. Two sit at board level on large Recrutiment agencies and the other is a lowly head of region for the UK’s largest business news company with 3.25 million readers. I can’t fathom a reason anyone would like to keep in their good books but you may be able to !

Without promotion something terrible happens: NOTHING. In most cases, I deal with airlines or brands with loads of interesting things happening right NOW, but only a few people know about it. We then come up with a "too late multilayer marketing plan" to make sure we achieve some miraculous change. Riyadh Air | طيران الرياض does not fly yet. At all. Zero flights, zero destinations, zero passengers, zero revenue, so...zero costs!? Hold your horses...I mean, hold your planes! We know the airline wants to be positioned as the second flag carrier of Saudi Arabia, based in Riyadh, its capital, with a modern fleet of #boeing 787. The airline is also planning to be the largest in the Middle East in terms of revenue...meaning it doesn't really want to be the "second", but rather the "first" one - and ahead of Emirates , Etihad or Qatar Airways It will (at some point in 2025) operate domestic and international scheduled flights to over 100 different destinations in the Middle East, Africa, Asia, Europe, Americas. Based on the new sponsorship below, is it reasonable to think now that Madrid will be one of its first future destinations that I can't book yet?! Or will imagination defy (and defeat) logical thinking on this one, too? Maybe, but who cares in 2025?! Having worked with a few #startups in the past, the item "marketing budget" has always been an "issue". Looking at the video below I asked myself who said the sky is the limit? Bottomless pockets is the new sky.

Thinking in a totally different direction.

Riyadh Air and Madrid Air, both driven by a shared commitment to excellence, innovation, and a steadfast dedication to serving diverse global communities, have forged a strategic partnership. This collaboration represents a pivotal opportunity for these two distinguished entities to augment their reach and solidify their positions as preeminent leaders within their respective industries. This synergistic alliance is poised to foster mutual growth, enabling Riyadh Air and Madrid Air to extend their influence and broaden their fanbase on a global scale. By combining their strengths and resources, they aim to transcend boundaries, elevate customer experiences, and leave an indelible mark on their industries, demonstrating unwavering dedication to their respective missions and a commitment to setting new standards of excellence.
