<p>Here at Blonde we&#8217;re speculating that Partick&#8217;s table-topping performance and the fact that the club has one of our Score widgets embedded prominently in its homepage may not be entirely coincidental&#8230;</p>
<p>With just over three weeks to go, they&#8217;re currently looking good for the £7,000 prize for youth development at the club.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As part of its ongoing sponsorship of the <a href="http://www.scottishfootballleague.com/" target="_blank">Scottish Football League </a>(SFL), <a href="http://www.irn-bru.co.uk/" target="_blank">IRN-BRU</a> has just launched a new £70,000 fund to help with youth development at the 30 SFL clubs, and a promotion mechanic that will allow the fans to determine how that fund is allocated.</p>
<p>The promotion is called Score With IRN-BRU. It is an SMS text based promotion that is being prominently featured on a number of pack variants. Participants text &#8220;Score&#8221; plus the division and first 4 letters of their club to the promotion number.</p>
<p>You can win for yourself, in that all participants (over the age of 16) are entered into a draw for one of five home cinema systems.</p>
<p>And you can win for your club, in that all texts feed into a series of league tables hosted on the <a href="http://www.phenomenalfooty.com/score.php" target="_blank">Phenomenal Footy</a> website. The higher the position of your club when the competition closes on 28th May, the more money it will get for youth development.</p>
<p><a href="http://blonde.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/scorewithib_blog.jpg" title="scorewithib_blog.jpg"><img src="http://blonde.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/scorewithib_blog.jpg" alt="scorewithib_blog.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>To allow ardent fans the opportunity to keep a close eye on league table movements, we&#8217;ve developed widgets for desktop and social media. These give real time updates on the progress of your team. These will no doubt become increasingly useful as the competition progresses to its climax at the end of May. The promotion is only a few days old but there is already a healthy level of activity. If this competition is anything like the <a href="http://www.phenomenalfooty.com/wags/" target="_blank">Real WAGS</a> competition we ran last year, then things will hot up in the final furlongs. Over 47,000 Real WAG votes were cast in the last 15 days of that competition.</p>
<p><a href="http://blonde.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/score-widget.jpg" title="score-widget.jpg"><img src="http://blonde.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/score-widget.jpg" alt="score-widget.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>The Score With IRN-BRU promotion is another example of the brand&#8217;s &#8220;Real Football&#8221; approach to its sponsorship of the SFL. This marries the strong grass-roots community presence of the brand with the strong, grass-roots community passion that characterises the support for SFL teams.</p>
