Assume its this lot http://www.axisbuildinggroup.com.au/

From first glance look like a decent contact if you are wanting to do works to a football stadium, although not altogether sure what they get out of a tie up?

What better way to showcase their development skills than building us a nice new stand/stadium with their name all over it....  Smiley

'The club would like to thank Excalibur and Cotswold Farm Machinery for all their support this season. Next season we will continue to work with them in different ways going forward.

Did anything ever happen after that teaser the club posted a couple of months ago about preparing to install something on the DRS roof? Or is this finally it? Bloody builders never on time.  Roll Eyes

Have Axis really thought through this sponsorship thing for next season?

Quote
With Swindon Town FC having two international players in Massimo Luongo and Yaser Kasim playing for Australia and Iraq respectively, this partnership works for both the club and Axis. Axis will gain more brand exposure in these countries where their brand is well established.

A leap too far to suggest another connection?  What does the Villa youth team look like at the moment?

I do wonder whether they discovered that whatever it was probably needed planning permission?

My friend works for Excalibur and it was the old and that was really into Swindon - think he's stepped down or aside now so that's why I'm guessing they won't be involved so much
