Cardiff City Football Club have struck a new £250,000 shirt deal with South Wales transport firm Vansdirect, and are proud to unveil details of an exciting new partnership for the historic final year at Ninian Park.
The new shirt sponsorship deal with Vansdirect will run for one year, with the option of a second season for the two parties. The design of the shirt is inspired by the 1970s yellow and white-striped kit as chosen by fans to commemorate the last season at Ninian Park. The shirt also reverts back to the daffodil and dragon badge which the club used before the recent St David’s version.
