Škoda and Simon Neal Sub Out Your Weekend Plans for Chelsea FC Women

​The Visionaries-repped director, Simon Neal, brings comedy and women's football to Škoda's latest campaign.

Saturday morning yoga. A queue for an overpriced croissant. A gender reveal party.There are worse ways to spend a weekend - but Chelsea FC Women still have a better idea.

'Your Weekend Subbed', created by Leo UK for Škoda's third year of partnership with Chelsea FC Women, sees three of the squad's key players doing the public a genuine service - pulling unsuspecting people out of their weekend plans and throwing them into the considerably more exciting world of a CFCW matchday. 

Simon Neal is right in his element here - the performances are live wire, the comedy is perfectly timed and the whole thing moves with the kind of restless energy that makes it impossible to look away. A brilliant vehicle for one of the most exciting teams in women's football right now.

Simon said, "Well it was the darkest wettest coldest day in January—not the perfect conditions to shoot a garden party scene but I think we got away with it."
