TELFORD, England (July 30 2014) – Vanarama.co.uk, the market disrupting van leasing business is the new title sponsor of the Football Conference.

Guess that's a typo in the opening line. Market "disrupting"?

I really really hate the person responsible for the league's PR (and terrible twitter account)

so players getting their team promoted from this league will be awarded VC medals? Seems appropriate.

If you disrupt a market it's a good thing (for the company that's doing the disrupting that is). It means coming in at the lower end and 'disrupting' the existing businesses. Therefore not a typo in this case.

It's about time Vauxhall get back in on the act. It's remarkable how many people (tongue-in-cheek and otherwise) still call it the Vauxhall Conference.

Seriously, they should do it. They're already sponsors of the England national team and by sponsoring the 'premier' non-league division it would show their understanding - and importance - of grass roots football.

At a time when Dyke and his cronies are looking to improve the fortunes of the national side, a statement like this from one of their sponsors might show them the way i.e. Vauxhall knows where the future lies.

Dare I say it, but it could be a good piece of PR for them. But it'll have to wait 12 months now!
