Can we get every player & coach sponsored before England kick off? ⚽️🌎🏆

Player sponsorship is one of the simplest ways supporters can back the club and show the lads they've got our support ahead of our biggest season in decades.

Home or Away sponsorship – £50
Both – £100

Several familiar faces and new signings are still available. At the moment, the remaining sponsorships add up to £1,000.

That's £1,000 that goes straight back into supporting the club, the squad and the season ahead.

No big sponsorship package.
No sales pitch.
Just supporters backing the people representing our club.
