Midnite were behind a new tifo unveiled against Wrexham on the opening day of the season and will unveil the new banner designed by the Tifo Committee before the derby against Portsmouth on Sunday.

Andrew Mook, Head of Brand Marketing at Midnite, said: “Tifos are a huge part of modern fan football culture, and we wanted to bring this to St Mary’s consistently throughout the season.

“To mark the opening day of the new season, we unveiled a tifo which paid homage to seven Saints legends and it was very well received by Saints fans. But we wanted to go bigger as the season progressed, while also leaning on the people who make the football club what it is – the fans.

“We have been collaborating with our Tifo Committee to hear what sort of designs will really captivate the fanbase, and we’re very excited to unveil our brand new tifo ahead of the Southampton vs Portsmouth fixture on Sunday.

“This is an iconic fixture in English football, and we wanted to bring the history of the fixture to life. We’re confident that the Saints fans will like what our Tifo Committee has come up with.

“We’re loving the start of our partnership with Southampton, and are dedicated to using our platform to bring fans closer to the action this season, with meaningful and impactful campaigns.”

Mike Smale, Founder of MatchDayVlogs, and member of the Midnite Tifo Committee, said:  “Being part of the Midnite Tifo committee has been a privilege. To represent the fanbase and reflect the passion of our supporters is no small task. Time and again, Saints fans have shown they’re among the very best in the country – turning up, singing loud, and backing the team no matter the circumstances.

“We want these displays to be a reflection of the unity and pride that runs through this fanbase. The atmosphere at St Mary’s during these big games proves that when our supporters come together, we create something unforgettable – both on the pitch and in the stands.”

A Betting and Gaming Council statement on the “Pride in Place” programme:

“The BGC is proud of the role our members play supporting Britain’s hard-pressed high streets.

Betting shops support 46,000 jobs, contribute nearly £1 billion a year in direct tax to the Treasury and a further £60 million in business rates to local councils, while having the highest standards on player safety and age verification.

Crucially, research by ESA Retail shows that 89 per cent of betting shop customers also visit other local businesses when they go to the bookies, providing a welcome boost to high street trade.

However, since 2019 the number of betting shops has fallen by 29 per cent – over 2,300 closures in just five years, with the loss of thousands of jobs, and millions in tax revenue.

Each month, around 22.5 million people in Britain enjoy a bet – on the lottery, in bookmakers, casinos, bingo halls, and online – and the overwhelming majority do so safely and responsibly.

The most recent NHS Health Survey for England estimated that 0.4 per cent of the adult population are problem gamblers.”
