Sponsors
Match Sponsors: Swinton Insurance
Graham Walker was the man who put it together, Graham's from Merseyside so he took on the Tranmere match sponsorship as it seemed the most sensible game to chose and between us we invited guests from the area along for hospitality. (see photos below)
Matchball Sponsors: NBS (National Blood Service)
NBS came along with their mascot Billy Blood who joined forces with Grecian the Lion for the day. Their aim was to increase the awareness of the need for people to give blood. There were leaflets in the programme and they had representatives giving details on the day.
The club endorses their campaign and encourages supporters to give blood, you never know when you might need it!
