COVENTRY Building Society have agreed to become shirt sponsors of Forest Green Rovers.

For many years, Stroud and Swindon Building Society have been strong supporters of Forest Green Rovers, and with their planned merger with Coventry Building Society imminent, the Coventry is keen to continue to develop the role they play in the community in which they operate.

Colin Franklin said: "Like the Stroud and Swindon, the Coventry is committed to supporting our local communities. We are delighted to have the opportunity to sponsor Forest Green Rovers, a true family football club with strong roots in the community.

"We have signed a two-year deal and look forward to a long and successful relationship with the Rovers.

"I’m looking forward to a great season ahead in the Blue Square Premier League."

The Society also confirms that the popular Forest Green Rovers Savings and MoneyBox accounts will continue to be available in all branches of the Stroud and Swindon.
