"Sky has made a commitment to be a force for positive change and the Kick It Out Scholarship - the first of its kind - is yet another indication that our commitment to diversity and inclusion goes beyond the pitch into the footballing business." "Rob's bad patch was nowhere near as bad as the one Glen is going through, obviously, but he had gone through a bad patch where he was struggling to get any kind of result.

In December 2020 Sky committed Kick It Out £3m over three years, in a mix of cash and value in kind support, with Sky Sports pledging to use its powerful voice, extensive reach, and established channels to support the organisation that has been at the forefront of the fight against discrimination and the drive for inclusion in football.
