At Barclays, we're here for the land of football.

We're here for the Premier League.

And the Barclays Women's Super League.

We're here for the football chance for giving more girls a chance. We're

here for the grassroots and all the muddy boots. From schools to stadiums we're here for it all.

Barclays here for the land of football.

You have the absolute right to believe this, to express this and to apply it to your life. You do not have the right to insist I believe it too.

Is it authoritarian would you say? Yes, it's a kind of thought control.
