Commenting on the partnership, IOMFA Interim Chief Executive Officer, Lewis Qualtrough said: ‘We are absolutely delighted Plum Properties have come onboard to sponsor the Isle of Man FA Railway Cup! As one of our Islands most prestigious cups, it always makes for an exciting competition! Local football is at the heart of our Island community, and it is fantastic to have the support from Plum Properties in delivering this competition. Good luck to all of the teams!’  

Plum Properties Director, Jonathan Leece, added: ‘With all three Plum Directors having been involved in Manx football and understanding the significance of one of the most prestigious trophies, it was a fantastic opportunity to support local football. As a locally owned company we understand the significance of giving back to the community in which we operate, that includes the business and football community. Thankfully our community have supported us to go from strength to strength. This success puts us in the fortunate position to be able to sponsor the Railway Cup. For me personally, it is the only way I will be able to get my hands on the Railway Cup too! Good luck to all of the teams, the race for qualification is really heating up’
