Coral Adds Newcastle & Leeds To Football Portfolio

Coral has been announced as the official betting and gaming partner of Newcastle United and Leeds United.

This follows a similar deal for the bookmaker with Fulham FC and Norwich City earlier this month. 

Under the new partnerships, the bookmaker will operate betting kiosks at the two stadiums as well as offer fans access to exclusive offers and promotions during the season.

The deal with Newcastle United will run for two years through until the end of the 2016/17 campaign.

Dave Aitchison, head of partnerships at Newcastle United, said: “Coral is a respected and well known high street betting brand and we are delighted to introduce them into the family of partners at Newcastle United. I am positive that our fans will get great value from Coral, with a combination of exclusive odds and special offers available to them throughout St. James’ Park as well as online.”

As part of the deal with Leeds United, Coral will also be sponsoring the North East Corner stand at Elland Road, with branding appearing on advertising boards throughout the stadium and on digital and social media.
