ROVERS have announced Darwen-based FUN Motor Group as the club’s website sponsor.

It follows on from the announcement of ‘The Energy Check’ as Rovers' social media, and back of the shirt, sponsors last month.

FUN Motor Group, who opened a new showroom on Branch Road, Lower Darwen in August, said the deal was ‘the perfect opportunity’ to support their local football club.

Managing Director, Jake Thomas, said: “We are pleased to announce that we will be sponsoring our local team, Blackburn Rovers, this season. They will have our full support and we wish them the very best of luck.”

Meanwhile, Rovers Ladies have announced Levitate Recruitment as their first ever front of shirt sponsor.

Rovers’ Business Development Manager Danny Davis was delighted with the deal, with Levitate having also taken out an advertising board at Ewood Park.

He said: “We're thrilled that Levitate have broken new ground in being our first ever Ladies team sponsor.

“It's brilliant that Levitate Recruitment are so supportive in the growth of ladies football and we really look forward to working with them throughout the remainder of the season.”

Levitate Director, Scott Lowes (pictured) added: “I'm lifelong Rovers fan and father to two young girls, so when the opportunity to sponsor the Blackburn Rovers Ladies team became available it was an easy decision.”
