★–Hello My Name Is... Cadence. ✮⋆˙ I LOVE Bridgit Mendler! I have liked her music from the beginning, since she was on "Good Luck, Charlie!". I still listen to her album all the time. I wanted to sing this song before, but I couldn't, because of my hair colour (lol). I am a blonde now, so, excuse me.

‼️ NEW MENDY POST ‼️

Hey, Mendy, when's your birthday?

[georgegraphys]

Let me fucking tell you that what Adidas did might be such a genius move of marketing that I just noticed

Warning: everything in this is not confirmed, this is just a speculation based on my observation and my previous knowledge/experience with marketing strategies implied in real world. Feel free to not read. This is a very long ride.

Have you noticed that all of these Adidas : George Russell x RMadrid collaborations are only posted through RMadrid's official accounts and all the publicity works are carried out by them?

There are a total of ELEVEN publicity works here (twitter (4), facebook (1), youtube (1), RMTV (1), instagram (2), RM Web (1), Weibo (1))

Those ELEVEN works are all published and done by RMadrid. All by RMadrid. Nothing individually from George. Nothing from Mercedes. Nothing from Adidas/Adidas Motorsport/Adidas Football. Nothing from George even when the club legend, Roberto posted George thrice in his instagram story (I only captured two sorry) and once in a post while George only posted the picture on his story. Does that not click something? It's a bit weird, isn't it? For a club as big as RMadrid to be the only one who does all the publicity through 9 different platforms in which the accumulation of the engagement can rise as high as tenths of millions in total. If you said that this does not make any sense, their instagram followers is 171 million. Only instagram. And these are posted across all platforms. It will amount to tenths of millions I promise you. Now, the question is what are we cooking behind all this?

A very genius strategy from Adidas, i might say. Why genius? Let me explain my speculation and thought process here.

There are millions, or even hundreds of millions fans of RMadrid all around the world. If you say "I love RMadrid! HALA MADRID" one day, no one cares. No one gives a fuck. Even if you're popular with tenths of millions of followers, no one cares because it's an 'as you should' moment. BUT if RMadrid was the one who showers you with attention, them saying "We LOVE you" and the players are all showing positive reactions towards you, those millions of fans WILL care. Those mega RMadrid fanaccounts like MadridXtra and many others will react to that out of loyalty. They are a fanbase with loyalty, whoever is seen positively by the club and the players (especially a legend like Roberto Carlos), will also land a place on the fans' good side. These are probably not motorsports fans, some of them probably never watched F1 but they will surely have a positive impression of George and later it will benefit the brand that George and RMadrid are collectively representing, Adidas and specifically their growing new branch, Adidas Motorsport.

This is exactly what I see as what Adidas is trying to achieve by making RMadrid do all the publicity. Notice how George met a lot of players aside from Jude and Roberto, he also met Mendy, Alaba, and Endrick then he also followed Modríc but he didn't post anything. Whereas his previous football sponsors link up like MUnited or MCity has got him posting something on his personal account in relation to the clubs he visited. And what happens then? I'm sorry but it didn't really generate a big ripple if I must say from a marketing perspective. Because as I said earlier, it's an "as he should" moment when George is the one who posted it. No one bats an eye because there are millions of other MCity and MUnited fans. But in this situation, Adidas turns it around. Madrid was the one who "gave the love" to George through the nine publicities they did and safe to say, things shifted in a better trajectory.

I will not say "yaaayy it works" as it's just one collab and nothing is showing at an instant but if I'm right about this strategy, then it's going to be a genius move. You can't expect tens of thousands of RMadrid fans to follow George or Adidas Motorsport in one night. Their loyalty doesn't lie with George/Adidas Motorsport and Adidas will not expect that either because if my speculation is correct, this first step will be an "introduction and discovery" step to see if 1) the perception and engagement of the football audience to a, specifically RMadrid led (we all know it's Adidas pulling the strings though) collab, with Adidas Motorsport and George Russell. Here they will see whether George is perceived positively or negatively amongst football fans 2) a bait thrown so that more people would discover the existence of Adidas Motorsport (and George Russell). This is partly why I think they chose Jude Bellingham and RMadrid instead of LYamal and FCB. Jude is closer in age, image, and nationality wise to George than LYamal. I know my fellow FCB-George fans are disappointed but it's a big difference in age and there are very few similarities that could connect them. For a new duo to make sense, they should have a similarity in backgrounds as well or it'll be a forced nonsense. "Why not Messi?" 1) They are not gonna fly George to Miami to meet with Messi 2) The "gap" is too wide and Messi is "too big" of a name. Too big of a name might come out as overshadowing or again, will be unrelatable as well. Maybe George might collaborate with Messi gradually but not now. Not in the moment where they are trying to introduce him first to the Adidas audience and market. Not the right place and timing. Their choice of Jude is a very right one in my opinion.

And here is another small point I'd like to highlight as the cherry on top of this collab. They don't only use Jude. But they also bring the likes of the beloved President, Florentino Perez and the likes of a Madrid legend and one of the greatest full backs in history, Roberto. The existence of these people in the collab solidifies RMadrid's "approval" or "support" towards George. One thing about football clubs is that no players are bigger than the clubs so Adidas brought in the President and a legend to back the "support" up. Very smart. Not only the players but include the legend and the club officials.

The other "sweet" point about this collab is how the Madrid players are actually, surprisingly even, supportive.

Alaba and Mendy (first pic) are Adidas athletes (understandable for their support). But Endrick is a Nike athlete. If you peep in the likes, Lucas Vázquez and Fran García (another fellow Adidas athletes) also liked the picture while Luka Modríc (Nike athlete) also gave his support the same way. It's very nice. It's a nice act because this shows that this isn't just business and it helps out the audience's perception side a bit. We don't know how George is with the RMadrid players or vice versa. The only hints we can grasp on? Through these things. I pointed out several times that George is not really the type to follow everyone once he met them except if they're his friends or he idolized them to a certain degree and that's how those football fans see George too. If he gets a positive reaction through these small things, it's a "plus point"

Lastly, the question might be "will we see Adidas pulling this strategy on George and other football teams?" Yes. It succeeded with RMadrid and a second "trial" will have to be done to see things through. Which club? I don't look like Adidas to you right? So I don't know. I can only predict things at certain parts but not that far ahead. It is out of my knowledge and work experience. BUT if I have the place to give suggestions? (I absolutely don't so I'll just put it here) I would love to suggest that Adidas don't try it out for a club in the Premier League. This is not because I dislike Adidas' PL clubs like Arsenal or MUnited (they're fine, i tolerate them) but it's oversaturated? Like George has already had previous ties with MCity, Wolves, MUnited. Another club to add to the list like Arsenal would have people raising their eyebrows and bring a negative image towards George if they figure out George has ties to those clubs as well. We already have some people questioning why George is with Madrid when he is friends with City linked players (Joleon, Jack, KDB, Aymeric) and idolized MUnited and Wolves in the past (I'm not waffling, it's under Roberto's post). We don't need more people to raise their eyebrows again if George comes to Arsenal. Maybe a private collaboration with the likes of Declan Rice or other Adidas backed Arsenal athletes would work but I REALLY do not recommend or like to see a George collab with another EPL club. It's too much. Especially when he showed his support publicly to MCity, Jack Grealish, and Pep Guardiola. It just doesn't sit right. MUnited might get the pass because it's another sponsor's event (INEOS) but another club like Arsenal? Especially knowing they are quite heated with MCity and George has a pretty strong personal and past sponsor ties to them? Nah... Not recommended. Pep visited George's garage in Abu Dhabi, Jack and Aymeric has been his friends since '21, and George was there partying at their treble party and watched their UCL final. A big no for a club collab with Arsenal or other EPL clubs in direct rivalry. IMO, it's better if Adidas put George in another league if they want an Adidas Football club collabs like Serie A, George could do it with Juventus or AS Roma or Bundesliga, like Bayern München but EPL is a big no no.

So yeah that's all to this. Sorry for being so long and detailed. This is just my rambles and again, everything is just a speculation based on my education and work experience in the marketing field regarding marketing strategies!

Do you think it’s time for Madrid to have a new coach?or do you think the issues will pass with time?I don’t mean this with any disrespect to Carlo but he doesn’t seem to know how to handle this team,have any structure,tactics or anything that would help this team.Defense is in the trenches,midfield did not develop at ALL,and the only reason it does look like it at the first glance is because the players are insanely talented on their own,the attack has issues as well,youngsters are sitting on the bench,it’s like the academy players seem to not even be there and with the players that he has to his disposal it’s pure embarrassment how they play and what position they play in.I mean our right back isn’t a right back and I mean that for both Jude and Vasquez,because Lucas just doesn’t do well at all there and Jude is an offensive player and shouldn’t even be there and he’s not a player that does well on the right as well,Mendy also doesn’t seem to know how to play recently,rodrygo sits on the bench as well,kylian misses,vini sometimes does well sometimes there’s issues,arda had exactly ONE minute in the last three games,Fede gives his all and has no rest,there’s pure chaos on that pitch every game.That video from celta match is just ridiculous,for players to be that confused and come up to ask questions one by one?what flick did with those teenagers and players in general,this is what I think this team needs just to develop them and get them to their best ability,at least with midfield and do something about the defense,and someone who can tell the board how idiotic they are by not signing any defenders.I’m not really sure what to think because from one side you can’t deny him what he achieved but in the other side how can you make players like that play so terribly?

I think the issue is solvable cause half is on the tactics and the other half is the players underperforming like as much as i get mad carlo is displacing some of the players he is only doing that to make up the laziness of some other players. I do think if they refuse to get a rb in the january transfer there is something severely wrong with the board like genuinely but Ill wait it out to see before writing carlo off completely. But one thing ill say is he needs to have faith in the youngsters of the squad and he is awful at developing majority of these players and i think he is too nice to not force tactics on them like he should say either step up or be benched and that should go for everyone so maybe this could be his last season but idk

[hellofromthehallowoods]

I’m only on episode 36 and seeing people freak out over the newest episodes makes me wanna skip to the third season and just binge it so I understand. (But I won’t because it’s a bad idea.) I AM SO SCARED THOUGH WHAT IS HAPPENING?? Please I’m just trying to stop myself from getting attached to the other mendies because I don’t want to get disappointed when they never show up again. Your podcast has me fucked up /pos

Don't worry; after Halloween, we'll be on break for a few months and there'll be plenty of time to catch up with the pack for further horrors! To my knowledge it will also be the point where a lot of folks start the show or get caught up too.

I might also point out that there's a @podcast-bookclub for the Hallowoods running right now! Might be a chance to freak out over whichever episode you're on in good company.

Neybappe broke, Mbakimi broke 🥲 we are still alive with our Gimbappe ship. But don't know what will happen to our ship when Kyky will finally find someone in Madrid.. as he can easily make friends and he already has a good relationship with Rodrygo.. I think Jude doesn't know much about Kylian and their meeting will be dramatic 😃 Vini-Jude already are bffs.. a love triangle maybe 🥲

do you think this ship will work? What is your new ship if there's any please 😅😮‍💨

I ignore H*kimi’s existence and don’t even mention the other one.

Kylian never had great friends of teammates (club-wise) Everyone literally ghosted when they were needed.

I think he’ll get along well w Jude bc they are so much alike (especially their families, education, the way they grew up, both mama’s boys etc.)

Vini, Rodrygo, Tchoumeninga, Mendy (naturally)

Luka & Alaba (cause who doesn’t adore them?) Rudiger & Fede too. Lunin cause the boy has a thing for big boys.

But when it comes to shipping, i think Judylian will be something else 🧐

GIMBAPPE WILL NEVER BE OVER OMG 🛑

In New York City, it’s always a rare blessing to see the sparkle of even a single star. It doesn’t get dark here. Even in the small hours of the morning, the sky remains illuminated by the thousands of blinking lights below—of the cars, of the buildings, of the houses. The lights reflect on the clouds, on the heavens themselves, turning them gray or an ugly muddy brown. There is no night in New York City, at least not in Manhattan. Queens can be different. On cold, moonless nights in Ozone Park, the stars come back to dance with me. At my bedside against the window, the stars twinkle and bathe me in a sleepy light. They’re pale and neutered, but I know they’re the same ones I see in my dreams. When I was younger, eight or nine, they visited me every night. When I lived in Punjab, in India, with my Nani and Nanu. When I had no worries. No cares. In the afternoons, I ran endlessly through the streets with my cousins, playing chicklets or pakdam pakdai. I never wanted to stop, so I didn’t. I ran and laughed and played. But when the light of the sun dimmed, we all collapsed in a pile in front of our house. Out came Bruno, a fuzzy black friend, to get his daily pats from the neighborhood kids. As we retired to the rooftop, we all laid in silence, altogether under the net of stars. Mendy and Boozi, our family dogs, whined softly, ready for bed. Our chests heaved, our hearts pounded, our feet ached, and our eyes grew tired. Cold breezes and hard concrete kept me always on my toes. Now though, it was worth it. My hands were a pillow behind my head and I watched the countless stars as they spread out in a never-ending array before me. The Milky Way was so radiant and bright, Hai Ram, it cast a shadow and my legs stretched ten feet. In these moments I was, without a doubt, the tallest girl in the world. With my head in the heavens, how could I not be? Drunk in starlight, I blink and I am back in the city. Years passed by; I find myself an adult, no longer a child. My head lies crooked on my windowsill once more. Tonight is one of those rare and lucky nights. I can see the sky from my bed. Three scattered stars blink back at me and this time the moon smiles at me too. They remember the moments we shared.
