Notts Receive Kit Sponsorship Deal

Last updated : 28 June 2003 By

The Club are yet to reveal what next season’s new kit will look like, although we know that the away kit will be ‘Italian blue’, but one thing is for sure, the kit will have a sponsor. The strip will be manufactured locally in Hucknall.

Fascia Mania, who are also based in Hucknall, but have outlets in Lincoln and Leicester, have agreed to sponsor the kit in a 1-year deal worth "tens of

thousands of pounds" and therefore their website address will be emblazoned across the front of each of the shirts next season.

On agreeing the deal Sam McEwen, spokesman for Strang and Bhatia, told the Evening Post, "We had plenty of interest but this company was particularly keen.

"When we took over, we knew we would get a shirt sponsor and we're delighted it's a local company.

"They felt they wanted to be associated with us. We have explained to them that we have to conclude the deal first and foremost but then they will come on board."

The sponsorship will be fully finalised once the club is taken over by Frank Strang and Raj Bhatia, which will be completed once the vital legal paperwork has been done.

The Club will be hoping that they have more success with this deal than with previous ones such as the Aaron Scargill stadium sponsorship fiasco last year.
