Saints new official partner Sure are a household name, certainly a market leader in deodorant for both men and women and now with their tie in with the club they are looking to engage with supporters.
Claudio Bellen, Senior Brand Manager of Sure UK & Ireland, said: "We are thrilled to announce our sponsorship of Southampton Football Club. Football is the most watched sport in the UK and is a key passion point for the brand’s target audience.
"Through our partnership with Southampton FC, the brand will aim to leverage money can’t buy experiences and tickets to engage with Saints fans, whilst also providing exciting content and unique insights to add to their overall spectator experience through social channels.”
Of course this partnership will not come cheap to Sure who recognise the benefit of being closely linked with a top Premier League football club.
Sure are not just looking to just get their name in the programme and leave it at that though, they have also taken out one of our executive boxes to foster close links between the company and the club and indeed Fraser Forster will be an Ambassador for Sure and will feature in their advertising in his Saints kit.
The campaign will intrinsically link the brand’s approach to high pressure moments often experienced by players, managers and fans within football.
Sure will be creating regular content on its football-dedicated Twitter channel @Sure, using the hashtag #NeverMoreSure and highlighting how players perform in high pressure moments.
This can only be good for Saints fans, as not only are Sure going to put money into the football club that will help us financially towards achieving our goals, not only will the club get a higher profile in the media, but the fans will benefit directly from competitions and giveaways etc.

What to read next:
U's Vs Accrington Match Preview As the round of matches over the festive period draws to a close, we have the visit of Accrington Stanley on that most rare of events in our football history, a Sunday afternoon kick-off. If you filter out play-off and cup games, in the league this accounts for just 25 games since we were formed, seven won, six drawn and 12 lost. As you would imagine, Sunday games are generally focussed around Christmas and the New Year, or more recently, Sky-mandated final games of the season. It’s been a pretty positive holiday schedule for the U’s too, eight points from four games, and with other results often going our way, we’re now just two places and three points outside the play-offs.
U's Vs MK Dons Match Preview Happy New Year U’s fans! After two hard fought 1-1 draws away from home across the festive period we kick off the New Year with a home match against Milton Keynes. Tickets look to be selling well, although not in the West Stand it seems, so should be a decent crowd providing MK bring more than their normal coach load. I know it doesn’t count for anything but the calendar year League Two table has us in fifth with 72 points from 46 matches played so 2025 hasn’t been a bad year to be a U’s fan.
Gillingham Vs U's Match Preview First and foremost, I hope you are all having a pleasant Christmas break relaxing with family and friends, and wishing you all a very happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. This will be our final match of 2025, with a trip to Priestfield to face old adversary Gillingham, our second game against them this month and our third this season. This will be our 112th game in all competitions against the Gills, a relationship that started with a Ted Davis U’s side winning 2-0 at Layer Road on 27th August 1938. At the final whistle tomorrow we will also be at the halfway point of the season, so considering at the end of September we were 20th, plenty of optimism for the second half of the season.
Crawley Vs U's Match Preview Merry Christmas U’s fans! Boxing Day in proper football leagues means football matches and the U’s face one of their shortest trips of the season as they venture across the Thames to face creepy Crawley. Crawley’s “stadium” is one of the few grounds I’ve gone away with the U’s (the 3-1 League Cup win back in 2019) and it felt like a ground that should be in the National League South but Crawley have been established in the football league since 2011 with two promotions to League One during that time which is impressive given the relative size of the club. We don’t have a huge history against Crawley Town, with just 24 meetings to date of which Crawley have won 11. In fact since that memorable League Cup win we hadn’t managed to beat Crawley until the, not as memorable but probably more important, 3-2 away win towards the end of the 2023/24 season that went a long way to helping us stay in this division.
U's Vs Newport Match Preview And so, Danny and Nicky enter their second century of games managing the U’s, at home to struggling Newport – let’s hope it starts a bit better than the first century finished. There won’t be many games we score three and lose, trouble is there’ll be even fewer where we concede four and win. That being said, I couldn’t fault the first hour of the Salford game, with the U’s in control of a game against good opposition, and on a typically heavy pitch. Then we kind of fell apart, certainly defensively, helped in no small part by a masterclass from ex-U’s Luke Garbutt (how is he only in League 2?). Credit must also go to 250+ of the faithful, a long trip starting at stupid o’clock – they deserved more than that for their support.
