Louis Cartey, Founder & Director at Nelmo & Co., said: “Nelmo & Co. are delighted to be renewing our sponsorship with Southend United for the upcoming season. Having not been much of a football fan prior to last season, I have to say I am now hooked and cannot wait to attend more matches this coming season.

“We would like to thank Rylee for all his help throughout the last 12 months and look forward to working with him going forward to ensure both Southend United and Nelmo & Co. maximise this partnership ”

“Last season and this summer have shown just how important the Club is to the city and we are looking forward to continuing our partnership with the club and engaging more with the local community.”

Rylee Doe, Commercial Executive at Southend United, added: “It’s been a pleasure working with Louis and James over the last couple of seasons and we’re grateful for their continued generosity to the football club.

Southend United are delighted to confirm that D2 Design & Build will continue as the Club’s official Sleeve Partner for the 2024/25 season.

The fitout specialists, who have a number of clients including The O2, Black Sheep Coffee, Newbury Racecourse, Costa Coffee and more, joined forces with the Shrimpers in August 2023 and will now continue their support of the football club for a further 12 months.

Based in Victoria Business Park, D2 have been huge supporters of the Club over the past year, including sponsoring the first team’s sleeves, our stewards’ rain jackets, our End-of-Season Gala, and of course completed a redesign of our aptly-named D2 Lounge which has been hugely popular with supporters.

D2 Design & Build are able to assist clients with everything, from planned maintenance to a full turn key service. Whether it be a retail, residential or commercial project, D2 Design & Build will provide their unquestioned attention to detail that is only surpassed by its professional approach to any project and an unrivalled quality of finish.

Their philosophy, which has been honed from many years of experience within the construction and shopfitting industries, is to offer a firm commitment to all clients which will be delivered with immeasurable enthusiasm and professionalism on every project that is only equalled by the client themselves.

We’re incredibly grateful for their support and look forward to strengthening our relationship over the next few seasons.

Dan Allen and Del Trevillion, Directors at D2 Design & Build, commented: “We are thrilled to continue our partnership with the Club. Last season had its highs and lows, but overall, it was a remarkable journey.

“When the opportunity to extend our partnership arose, we did not hesitate. We eagerly anticipate the new season under new management, bringing a fresh outlook while maintaining the enduring spirit of this great club. It is an honour for all of us at D2 to be partners, but ultimately, we are all fans and look forward to being back in the stands at the Hall.”

Rylee Doe, Commercial Executive at Southend United, added: “Since we started working with Dan and Del, our relationship has strengthened tenfold.

“D2 are a fantastic local business who have our club’s best interests at heart and we’re ecstatic to be continuing to work with them on several projects moving forward.”

I'll be honest with you, with the positivity around the place, we don't need a new signing to sell a decent shirt!!!

(But please announce more signings anyway).
This ^^

The club will need to make as much as they can whilst the current mood lasts , for as little outlay as possible , to keep the ball rolling and hopefully some of the funds can then trickle down to the playing side .
 
I have been advised that even by Macron standards this shirt is coming up small. Most people I know have had to size up since we’ve been with macron. You might want to consider certainly going and trying this on if you are local and able to do so. Even certain players have requested to size up this year as this one is small.
Reminds me of the good ol' days with Michael Ricketts in the squad.

So a normal medium would've been XL last year and XXL this coming season ?
