You might be wondering of the relevance of this as it isn’t about a great new bonus offer, however I am sure you will agree this is a cause worth promoting. As do the following three former football legends who have joined up with Premier League teams and the NHS to launch an anti-smoking campaign. West Ham manager Gianfranco Zola, Gunners Legend Ian Wright and John Barnes have all come together to promote Smokefree United.
Smokefree United is a virtual club that provides advice for football fans and players to assist them in giving up cigarettes.
People signing up will receive emails from Ian Wright encouraging them to stop smoking, along with the chance to win prizes, including the once-in-a-lifetime chance to play at your favourite club’s ground.
This NHS campaign backed by Talksport is also keen to highlight that after just one week without smoking, quitters could show an improvement the next time they play football.
Nine Premier League teams, including Liverpool and Tottenham are also supporting the campaign, delivering health-related programmes to help their fans stay fitter.
