Ladbrokes Unveils Football-Obsessed Campaign

For bookmakers’ sponsorship of the Europa League on ITV, Tiziano Crudeli wants to inform everyone: “Ladbrokes Mobile – Yes!”

 

SapientNitro, part of Sapient (NASDAQ: SAPE), has created a series of idents for Ladbrokes to promote its mobile app during its sponsorship of the Europa League on ITV.
 
Featuring Tiziano Crudeli, the passionate Italian football commentator and face of the Ladbrokes’ ‘Game On!’ campaign, the idents humorously remind everyone to use Ladbrokes’ mobile app.
 
The idents echo Ladbrokes’ ‘Gym’ and ‘Shampoo’ campaigns, which continue to run for the entire length of the football season. The latest idents feature Sky football pundit and ex-footballer, Chris Kamara, undertaking various non-football related and comical activities, before Crudeli bursts into the spot shouting “Mobile Yes!” and placing a mobile device in Kamara’s hand with the Ladbrokes’ app on screen.


 
In one of the eleven idents that will run for the duration of the competition, we see Kamara trying to relax by knitting in front of the fire before an angry Crudeli snatches the yarn and needles from his hand shouting “No, No No.” Crudeli then replaces the knitting with a mobile saying “Knitting no! Mobile, yes”. The ident then ends with a close up shot of the app and the strapline “Ladbrokes mobile sponsors the Europa League on ITV”.
 
The idents break on September 20th on ITV at 7pm, at the start of the group stages of the Europa League and will run for the duration of the tournament on ITV and ITV4. The idents will also provide the digital sponsorship online.
 
Adam Collett, Marketing Communications Director at Ladbrokes, says: “Our Game On! campaign has been a great success for Ladbrokes since its launch and the sponsorship of ITV's coverage of the Europa League will help us reach even greater numbers of football supporting betting customers.   Tiziano Crudeli and Kammy are a brilliant, funny and powerful team helping us communicate our brand in a truly engaging and entertaining way.”
 
Malcolm Poynton, Chief Creative Officer at SapientNitro, said: “With Soccer AM and Ladbrokes fans having parodied Ladbrokes’ ‘Gym’ and ‘Shampoo’ ads, we’re excited to serve up the next wave of Kammy and Tiziano encounters to promote Europa League. I’ve no doubt Tiziano’s insistence on football over pottery or DIY will chime with football fans nationwide.”
