A huge thank you and welcome to our sponsors tonight.
Match and Match Ball Sponsor – Pirelli Tyres Ltd
Pirelli and Carlisle United Football Club have worked in partnership since the 1970’s, when the world-renowned tyre company (who also have a base in Burton) first started to advertise in the match day programme.
Sponsorship of the distinctive and eye-catching Pirelli Family Stand on the west side of the stadium was put in place in the early 2000’s, with that particular partnership now in its eighteenth season.
They popped down to see us on Monday morning as part of their sponsorship package, and we're looking forward to seeing them again tonight.

Match Ball Delivery System – ATL
ATL - Ascott Transport Ltd - became the first company ever to provide the club with a bespoke ball delivery system, ahead of kick-off for each game, back in November 2021.
ATL, who are proud to be our official match ball delivery partner, and who are based on Kingmoor Park at the north of the city, have sponsored a mini-pallet which allows the ball to be delivered to the referee in the centre circle ahead of the pre-match line-up photo opportunity and coin toss.
In addition the distinctive ATL logo will now appear on the big screen before the game and during half-time, along with an advertising board that has been placed pitchside here at Brunton Park.
ATL have similar sponsorship agreements with Derby County and Burton Albion, another area of the country with a strong Pirelli connection. Here in Carlisle they work closely with Nestle and McVities (now Pladdis), as well as Pirelli.
