Scunthorpe United is delighted to welcome Jason Threadgold Funeral Director on board as a new club partner, as they take sponsorship of the Iron's training ground.

The agreement, which runs until the end of the 2024-25 season, will see the club's pitches be known as the Jason Threadgold Funeral Director training ground for the duration.

The deal also sees the Iron players debut brand new training kit from Technical Kit Partner, Kelme, with the gold Jason Threadgold Funeral Director logo emblazoned across the new clothing.

Welcoming the latest partnership from the independent and local family-owned funeral director, owner of Scunthorpe United Michelle Harness said: "I would like to thank Jason, Nichola and the team at Jason Threadgold Funeral Director for their amazing support since we took ownership of the football club.

"To get another local business on board supporting the Iron is another massive step forward to help the football club get on the path to sustainability, and it's another positive partnership created that we hope will continue to grow over the course of this deal, and beyond.

"Award-winning for their excellent service that they provide in Scunthorpe, Brigg, Scartho and Barton, we are delighted to recognise Jason Threadgold Funeral Director as a major commercial partner at Scunthorpe United. I would also like to reserve a special mention to Jake Pullan, who is just 15-years-old and a media intern at the football club and works closely with James Moody, for his involvement in getting this deal secured." 

Company Directors Jason and Nichola Threadgold added: "As part of our continued commitment to supporting our local community - we felt it only prudent that we should step in to help support our local football team.

"Both of us being Scunthorpe born and bred, we have both seen the changing faces of Scunthorpe United, and we have both supported the teams over the years.

"We are very privileged to be given the opportunity of sponsoring the training ground here at Scunthorpe United, and look forward to the future of this team."
