Brace Yourself: Saints fan bags £7,000 as part of Midnite initiative

Published

Midnite, the fastest growing sportsbook in the UK, and Training Kit Partners of Southampton F.C., saw another winner of its Brace Yourself campaign on Tuesday night, as Kuryu Matsuki bagged a brace in Saints’ 5-0 victory over Queens Park Rangers.

Brace Yourself rewards fans when a home-team player scores two or more goals in a home match. This is the 4th time that scenario has occurred at St Mary’s this season, with Midnite awarding £17,000 to fans. Midnite also matches this figure via a donation to the Saints Foundation, helping to support worthy causes in the city.

Southampton season ticket holder, and Brace Yourself winner, Heidi King, reacted:

“I never expected to win, but I am very grateful and thankful to Midnite and to Matsuki for getting the brace.”

Andrew Mook, Head of Brand at Midnite, commented:

“It’s fantastic to have another winner of our Brace Yourself competition, and congratulations to Heidi. We hope that Brace Yourself has been a really fun addition for supporters. It adds a bit of extra excitement, as we know that when Matsuki’s second goal went in last night, fans will have that thought in their mind, ‘could it be me?’

“It’s a great feeling for Midnite to be able to make that phone call and really make someone’s day – and even season – by giving them such great news.

“To round off a 5-0 win with an extra £7,000 in your pocket is stuff dreams are made of, and we’re really pleased to be able to bring this positive emotion to the fans who give so much to the club.

“Midnite will also match the fan prize and donate the same amount to the Saints Foundation, in a bid to support some of the amazing work that they do within the local community.”

Greg Baker, Chief Revenue Officer at Southampton Football Club, said:

“We’re absolutely thrilled to see one of our loyal supporters rewarded with £7,000 through Midnite’s Brace Yourself campaign.”

“As our Official Training Kit Partner, Midnite has consistently found innovative ways to engage with our fanbase. Brace Yourself, as one example, has added an exciting new dimension to matchdays at St Mary’s Stadium, and it’s fantastic to see the initiative deliver such memorable and rewarding moments for our fans. Congratulations to the latest winner – we hope this makes the season even more special.”
