The Committee was formed after Midnite’s tifo at the season opener against Wrexham AFC
Midnite – the fastest-growing UK sports betting and online casino operator and Official Training Kit partner of Southampton FC – has recruited a group of Saints fans to form a Tifo Committee ahead of this weekend’s South Coast derby against Portsmouth.
The Tifo Committee, which is the first of its kind within the league, will help Midnite deliver a series of iconic tifos throughout the season and add to the colour and atmosphere at Saints home games.
Composed of key members of various supporter groups associated with Southampton, Midnite have leant on the expertise of the people who know the football club better than anyone: the fans.
Members of the Tifo Committee include: Mike Smale (MatchDayVlogs), Alex Graham (TotalSaintsPodcast), Louise Burke (Southampton Fan Advisory Board) and Yasmin Wiseman (Southampton Fan Advisory Board).
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.”

Duelbits launches Tap Trading, a live Solana price-prediction casino game
Duelbits has launched Tap Trading, a new chart-based casino game that lets players wager on short-term movement in Solana (SOL) price data. The company said the game is now available globally on the DuelBits platform.
Tap Trading shows a continuously updating chart tracking SOL’s live price. Players wager on whether the price will move up or down over 10-second intervals, with the company stating successful predictions can pay “up to 40x” the original stake.
Duelbits positions Tap Trading as distinct from crash games and prediction markets, framing it as a real-time, rapid-cycle format built around market data rather than simulated outcomes. The operator also said the game is optimised for mobile and supports multiple currencies.
To support the launch, Duelbits said it is rolling out an acquisition and awareness campaign aimed at crypto-native audiences, including partnerships with creators and KOLs, social media activations, community initiatives and streamer collaborations.
Jasper Hoekert, Chief Marketing Officer at Duelbits, said: “Tap Trading represents a significant step forward in how players interact with market based gaming experiences.
“With Tap Trading we created a product that feels familiar to crypto traders while remaining accessible and entertaining for casino players. We’re continuing to push the boundaries of what’s possible in crypto gaming, reinforcing Duelbits’ position as a leader in product innovation and delivering unique experiences that players won’t find anywhere else.”

GGPoker brings back $1M Go for Gold promo for Spin & Gold players
GGPoker is bringing back its $1M Go for Gold promotion for Spin & Gold players starting June 12, with $1,000,000 in additional prizes available while supplies last, the operator said.
The promotion applies to all 3-Max and 6-Max Spin & Gold tournaments. At the start of each tournament, the prize multiplier wheel determines that game’s prize pool. Players then earn a “stamp” for each different multiplier they hit, with 3-Max and 6-Max stamps treated as interchangeable equivalents.
A player becomes eligible for an instant cash prize after collecting five different multiplier stamps, with prizes worth up to $10,000 per completed card, according to GGPoker. After opening a prize, players can begin collecting a new set of stamps 24 hours after the moment they collected the first stamp of the previous run.
“Spin & Gold games are already some of the most exciting formats we offer, but our $1M Go for Gold promotion turns the dial up to eleven,” said Paul Burke, Head of Public Relations at GGPoker. “Our community loved this promotion last year, and we couldn’t wait to bring it back. We’re thrilled to give our players another chance to turn spins into up to $10,000 in extra cash, simply by hitting the multipliers!”
GGPoker has also linked the promotion to its broader $14M June Giveaway, with full terms and conditions available on the operator’s promotional page.
