Martin Moodie is the Founder & Chairman of The Moodie Report.

The Moodie Blog’s new sponsorship of UK football club Leicester City has got off to a flying start with the team winning 1-0 against previously unbeaten Championship league leaders Blackpool.

As reported, Leicester City (‘the Foxes’) is owned by Asian Football Investments, a Thai consortium led by Vichai Raksriaksorn, Chairman of one of Asia’s leading travel retailers, King Power International Group and one of our industry’s great figures. In turn, Leicester’s Chief Executive is King Power International Group Senior Executive Vice President Susan Whelan (pictured).

The Moodie Report is donating US$50 to charity for each goal Leicester scores during its 46 Championship games this season. If the team wins promotion, we’ll add a bonus of US$5,000. As our cause, we’ve chosen The Moodie Report Foundation, dedicated to funding cancer research and at the end of the season we’ll select a particularly appropriate beneficiary for these specific funds.

During the season we’re going to have lots of fun, offering some great readers’ prizes and days out courtesy of Leicester City FC, and raise significant funds for charity.

Yesterday’s goal (a 54th minute penalty by skipper Ben Marshall) brings the pot to US$250 but, more importantly, sends Leicester up to 9th place in the Championship, just three behind the leaders Blackpool.

Yes folks, as we predicted, the Foxes are on the run.
