HOW does leaving Letherby Drive financially better off after a day at the football sound?
Now thanks to Queen’s Park and Howden – Glasgow’s Local Insurance Broker – you can.
The valued neighbours of The city Stadium, on the corner of Letherby Drive and Carmunnock Road, Howden are also principal sponsors of our new half-time draw… and we’ve given it a Spiders spin.
Backed by the Queen’s Park Supporters Association, tickets will be on sale at every home game – including cup competitions – with a cash prize available to the lucky winner.
Entries to the Howden half-time draw will be available right up to kick-off and beyond from QPSA volunteers and specialist sellers wearing Howden branded hoodies around the east stand. They’ll even be available AT half-time.
All entries will then be placed into the draw which closes when the players re-emerge for the second half – and with a nod to the Spiders’ founding year of 1867, the lucky ticket number will be announced to The city Stadium crowd, and on our social media channels, in the 67th minute.
The winning prize will be available to collect – from Howden Mount Florida – on the Tuesday after each home match.
Head of commercial at Queen’s Park Kieran Koszary said: “We are delighted to have Howden on board. Their tagline is ‘Glasgow’s Local Insurance Broker’ and they can’t get much more local to the club than right across the road.
“The company is a valued neighbour on Letherby Drive as well as a fantastic local business, and we are delighted to be working with them.
“Restoring a draw for supporters has been high on my agenda for a while and high on the wish-list of many fans’ feedback we received so we are delighted this has come to fruition – and our 67th minute announcement will just add to the sense of anticipation each matchday.”
Jim Williams and Scott Strain from the QPSA joined staff from Howden to launch the returning draw this week.
June Lynch from Howden – Glasgow’s Local Insurance Broker – added: “We are delighted to partner with Queen’s Park FC for the new Howden Half-Time Draw. Queen’s Park FC is a key part of the local community so as Glasgow’s local insurance broker – and next-door neighbour – we feel the partnership is the perfect match.
“We look forward to supporting the team across the coming season, working on new initiatives, and continuing to strengthen our shared commitment to the local community.”
Tickets will cost £1 each and go on sale for our first home league match of the season against Arbroath on August 9. Cash only.
